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.

While sphinx 1.7 and later supports "-jauto" for parallelism, this effectively ignores the "-j" flag used in the "make" invocation, which may cause confusion for build systems. Instead, extract the available parallelism from "make"'s job server (since it is not exposed in any special variables) and use that for the "sphinx-build" run. Now things work correctly for builds where -j is specified at the top-level: make -j16 htmldocs If -j is not specified, continue to fallback to "-jauto" if available.
