Changes since v3:
 - s/nointr/noinstr/

Changes since v2:
 - No big content changes, just style corrections, so it should be
   pretty clean at this stage. In the light of this, I kept Mark's
   Reviewed-by.
 - Paul's style and paragraph re-writes
 - Randy's style comments
 - Add links to transition type sections

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
