* docs-rst: admin-guide: add documentation for EDACMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-12-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | EDAC is part of the Kernel's RAS facilities, with is useful for system admins to detect errors. So, add it to the admin's guide. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
* admin-guide: merge oops-tracing with bug-huntingMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-11-071-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Now that oops-tracing.rst has only information about stack dumps found on OOPS, and bug-hunting.rst has only information about how to identify the source code line associated with a stack dump, let's merge them and improve the information inside it.

* admin-guide: move tainted kernels info to a separate fileMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-11-071-4/+5
| | | | | | | | The tainted kernels info is not directly related to the oops tracing. So, let's move it to a separate file. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
* doc-rst: admin-guide: move bug bisect to a separate fileMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-11-071-0/+1
| | | | | | | | Better organize the admin guide documentation by moving the bug bisect to a separate file. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
* Merge branch 'doc-tweaks' into docs-nextJonathan Corbet2016-10-271-14/+39
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The creation of the admin and process guides is a great thing, but, without care, we risk replacing a messy docs directory with a few messy Sphinx books. In an attempt to head that off and show what I'm thinking, here's a set of tweaks that, I think, make the existing Sphinx-formatted docs a bit more accessible.
| * docs: Get rid of the "basic profiling" guideJonathan Corbet2016-10-271-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The document has not been touched in over 11 years and doesn't reflect how profiling is done in the perf era. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
| * docs: Get rid of the badRAM guideJonathan Corbet2016-10-271-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last release of this tool was for 2.6.28; it's hard to see how it has any relevance to current kernels. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
| * docs: Clean up and organize the admin guide a bitJonathan Corbet2016-10-271-11/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The admin guide is a good start, but it's time to turn it into something better than an unordered blob of files. This is a first step in that direction. The TOC has been split up and annotated, the guides have been reordered, and minor tweaks have been applied to a few of them. One consequence of splitting up the TOC is that we don't really want to use :numbered: anymore, since the count resets every time and there doesn't seem to be a way to change that. Eventually we probably want to group the documents into sub-books, at which point we can go back to a single TOC, but it's probably early to do that.

* | doc-rst: include index only in subproject AND htmlMarkus Heiser2016-10-261-0/+8

* docs-rst: create an user's manual bookMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-10-241-0/+34
Place README, REPORTING-BUGS, SecurityBugs and kernel-parameters on an user's manual book. As we'll be numbering the user's manual, remove the manual numbering from SecurityBugs. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
