* docs: Fix subsystem APIs page so ungrouped entries have their own headerMichael Kelley2024-01-301-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel subsystem APIs front page currently has four top-level groupings with headers, and then everything else that isn't grouped. But in the table-of-contents, ungrouped subsystems are indented as if they were part of the preceding grouping (currently "Storage interfaces"), which is confusing. Fix this by adding an "Other subsystems" header for the ungrouped subsystems.

* Documentation: Destage TEE subsystem documentationSumit Garg2023-12-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a separate documentation directory for TEE subsystem since it is a standalone subsystem which already offers devices consumed by multiple different subsystem drivers. Split overall TEE subsystem documentation modularly where: - The userspace API has been moved to Documentation/userspace-api/tee.rst. - The driver API has been moved to Documentation/driver-api/tee.rst. - The first module covers the overview of TEE subsystem. - The further modules are dedicated to different TEE implementations like: - OP-TEE - AMD-TEE - and so on for future TEE implementation support.

| * platform/x86: wmi: Add documentationArmin Wolf2023-05-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add documentation for the WMI subsystem. The documentation describes both the ACPI WMI interface and the driver API for interacting with the WMI driver core. The information regarding the ACPI interface was retrieved from the Ubuntu kernel references and the Windows driver samples available on GitHub. The documentation is supposed to help driver developers writing WMI drivers, as many modern machines designed to run Windows provide an ACPI WMI interface.

* doc: add documentation for accel subsystemOded Gabbay2022-11-221-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add an introduction section for the accel subsystem. Most of the relevant data is in the DRM documentation, so the introduction only presents the why of the new subsystem, how are the compute accelerators exposed to user-space and what changes need to be done in a standard DRM driver to register it to the new accel subsystem.

* docs: Rewrite the front pageJonathan Corbet2022-09-291-0/+58
The front page is the entry point to the documentation, especially for people who read it online. It's a big mess of everything we could think to toss into it. Rewrite the page with an eye toward simplicity and making it easy for readers to get going toward what they really want to find. This is only a beginning, but it makes our docs more approachable than before.
