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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.

As reported by Randy Dunlap: >> WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for DELL_SMBIOS >> Depends on [m]: X86 [=y] && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES [=y] >> && (DCDBAS [=m] || >> DCDBAS [=m]=n) && (ACPI_WMI [=n] || ACPI_WMI [=n]=n) >> Selected by [y]: >> - DELL_LAPTOP [=y] && X86 [=y] && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES [=y] >> && DMI [=y] >> && BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE [=y] && (ACPI_VIDEO [=n] || >> ACPI_VIDEO [=n]=n) >> && (RFKILL [=n] || RFKILL [=n]=n) && SERIO_I8042 [=y] >> Right now it's possible to set dell laptop to compile in but this causes dell-smbios to compile in which breaks if dcdbas is a module. Dell laptop shouldn't select dell-smbios anymore, but depend on it.
