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.

For development and testing purposes, the i915.force_probe module parameter and DRM_I915_FORCE_PROBE kconfig option allow probing of devices that aren't supported by the driver. The i915.force_probe module parameter is "unsafe" and setting it taints the kernel. However, using the kconfig option does not. Always taint the kernel when force probing a device that is not supported. v2: Drop "depends on EXPERT" to avoid build breakage (kernel test robot) Fixes: 7ef5ef5c ("drm/i915: add force_probe module parameter to replace alpha_support") Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Cc: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@gmail.com> Acked-by:Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Reviewed-by:
