1The Linux kernel user's and administrator's guide
  2=================================================

  4The following is a collection of user-oriented documents that have been
  5added to the kernel over time.  There is, as yet, little overall order or
  6organization here — this material was not written to be a single, coherent
  7document!  With luck things will improve quickly over time.

  9This initial section contains overall information, including the README
 10file describing the kernel as a whole, documentation on kernel parameters,
 11etc.

 60application developers and system integrators doing analysis of the
 61Linux kernel for safety critical applications. Documents supporting
 62analysis of kernel interactions with applications, and key kernel
 63subsystems expectations will be found here.
