Commitf0400a77eb("atomic: Delete obsolete documentation") removed ./Documentation/core-api/atomic_ops.rst, but missed to remove further references to that file. Hence, make htmldocs warns: Documentation/core-api/index.rst:53: WARNING: toctree contains reference to nonexisting document 'core-api/atomic_ops' Also, ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --self-test=patterns warns: warning: no file matches F: Documentation/core-api/atomic_ops.rst Remove further references to ./Documentation/core-api/atomic_ops.rst.

Core API Documentation
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
This is the beginning of a manual for core kernel APIs. The conversion
|
|
(and writing!) of documents for this manual is much appreciated!
|
|
|
|
Core utilities
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
This section has general and "core core" documentation. The first is a
|
|
massive grab-bag of kerneldoc info left over from the docbook days; it
|
|
should really be broken up someday when somebody finds the energy to do
|
|
it.

Data structures and low-level utilities
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
Library functionality that is used throughout the kernel.

Concurrency primitives
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
How Linux keeps everything from happening at the same time. See

Memory management
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
How to allocate and use memory in the kernel. Note that there is a lot
|
|
more memory-management documentation in :doc:`/vm/index`.
