Matthias Maennich eb8305aecb scripts: Coccinelle script for namespace dependencies.
A script that uses the '<module>.ns_deps' files generated by modpost to
automatically add the required symbol namespace dependencies to each
module.

Usage:
1) Move some symbols to a namespace with EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS() or define
   DEFAULT_SYMBOL_NAMESPACE
2) Run 'make' (or 'make modules') and get warnings about modules not
   importing that namespace.
3) Run 'make nsdeps' to automatically add required import statements
   to said modules.

This makes it easer for subsystem maintainers to introduce and maintain
symbol namespaces into their codebase.

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.
