Some broken references happened due to shifting files around and ReST renames. Those can't be auto-fixed by the script, so let's fix them manually.

Documentation subsystem maintainer entry profile
|
|
================================================
|
|
|
|
The documentation "subsystem" is the central coordinating point for the
|
|
kernel's documentation and associated infrastructure. It covers the
|
|
hierarchy under Documentation/ (with the exception of
|
|
Documentation/devicetree), various utilities under scripts/ and, at least
|
|
some of the time, LICENSES/.
|
|
|
|
It's worth noting, though, that the boundaries of this subsystem are rather
|
|
fuzzier than normal. Many other subsystem maintainers like to keep control
|
|
of portions of Documentation/, and many more freely apply changes there
|
|
when it is convenient. Beyond that, much of the kernel's documentation is
|
|
found in the source as kerneldoc comments; those are usually (but not
|
|
always) maintained by the relevant subsystem maintainer.
|
|
|
|
The mailing list for documentation is linux-doc@vger.kernel.org. Patches
|
|
should be made against the docs-next tree whenever possible.
|
|
|
|
Submit checklist addendum
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
When making documentation changes, you should actually build the
|
|
documentation and ensure that no new errors or warnings have been
|
|
introduced. Generating HTML documents and looking at the result will help
|
|
to avoid unsightly misunderstandings about how things will be rendered.
|
|
|
|
Key cycle dates
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Patches can be sent anytime, but response will be slower than usual during
|
|
the merge window. The docs tree tends to close late before the merge
|
|
window opens, since the risk of regressions from documentation patches is
|
|
low.
|
|
|
|
Review cadence
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
I am the sole maintainer for the documentation subsystem, and I am doing
|
|
the work on my own time, so the response to patches will occasionally be
|
|
slow. I try to always send out a notification when a patch is merged (or
|
|
when I decide that one cannot be). Do not hesitate to send a ping if you
|
|
have not heard back within a week of sending a patch.
