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.

The time spent searching for things to write back "counts" for the actual rate achieved, so don't flush the accumulated rate with each chunk. This will maintain better fidelity to user-commanded rates, but it may slightly increase the burstiness of writeback. The writeback lock needs improvement to help mitigate this.
