Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.

When compiling with `make CC=clang HOSTCC=clang`, I was seeing warnings that clang did not recognize -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks for HOSTCC targets. These were added in commit 61163efa ("kbuild: LLVMLinux: Add Kbuild support for building kernel with Clang"). Clang does not support -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks, so adding it to HOSTCFLAGS if HOSTCC is clang does not make sense. It's not clear why the other warnings were disabled, and just for HOSTCFLAGS, but I can remove them, add -Werror to HOSTCFLAGS and compile with clang just fine.
