The contents of those directories were orphaned at the documentation body. While those directories could likely be moved to be inside some guide, I'm opting to just adding their indexes to the main one, removing the :orphan: and adding the SPDX header. For the drivers, the rationale is that the documentation contains a mix of Kernelspace, uAPI and admin-guide. So, better to keep them on separate directories, as we've be doing with similar subsystem-specific docs that were not split yet. For the others, well... I'm too lazy to do the move. Also, it seems to make sense to keep at least some of those at the main dir (like kbuild, for example). In any case, a latter patch could do the move.

The Linux Kernel documentation
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
This is the top level of the kernel's documentation tree. Kernel
|
|
documentation, like the kernel itself, is very much a work in progress;
|
|
that is especially true as we work to integrate our many scattered
|
|
documents into a coherent whole. Please note that improvements to the
|
|
documentation are welcome; join the linux-doc list at vger.kernel.org if
|
|
you want to help out.

|
Licensing documentation
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
The following describes the license of the Linux kernel source code
|
|
(GPLv2), how to properly mark the license of individual files in the source
|
|
tree, as well as links to the full license text.

User-oriented documentation
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
The following manuals are written for *users* of the kernel — those who are
|
|
trying to get it to work optimally on a given system.

Firmware-related documentation

|
|
platform firmwares.

Application-developer documentation
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The user-space API manual gathers together documents describing aspects of
|
|
the kernel interface as seen by application developers.

Introduction to kernel development
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
These manuals contain overall information about how to develop the kernel.
|
|
The kernel community is quite large, with thousands of developers
|
|
contributing over the course of a year. As with any large community,
|
|
knowing how things are done will make the process of getting your changes
|
|
merged much easier.

Kernel API documentation
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
These books get into the details of how specific kernel subsystems work
|
|
from the point of view of a kernel developer. Much of the information here
|
|
is taken directly from the kernel source, with supplemental material added
|
|
as needed (or at least as we managed to add it — probably *not* all that is
|
|
needed).
