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.

clang does not support -falign-jumps and only recently gained support
for -falign-loops. When one of the configuration options that adds these
flags is enabled, clang warns and all cc-{disable-warning,option} that
follow fail because -Werror gets added to test for the presence of this
warning:
clang-14: warning: optimization flag '-falign-jumps=0' is not supported
[-Wignored-optimization-argument]
To resolve this, add a couple of cc-option calls when building with
clang; gcc has supported these options since 3.2 so there is no point in
testing for their support. -falign-functions was implemented in clang-7,
-falign-loops was implemented in clang-14, and -falign-jumps has not
been implemented yet.
