Core API Documentation
======================
This is the beginning of a manual for core kernel APIs. The conversion
(and writing!) of documents for this manual is much appreciated!
Core utilities
==============
This section has general and "core core" documentation. The first is a
massive grab-bag of kerneldoc info left over from the docbook days; it
should really be broken up someday when somebody finds the energy to do
it.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
kernel-api
workqueue
printk-formats
symbol-namespaces
Data structures and low-level utilities
=======================================
Library functionality that is used throughout the kernel.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
kobject
assoc_array
xarray
idr
circular-buffers
generic-radix-tree
packing
timekeeping
errseq
Concurrency primitives
======================
How Linux keeps everything from happening at the same time. See
:doc:`/locking/index` for more related documentation.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
atomic_ops
refcount-vs-atomic
local_ops
padata
../RCU/index
Low-level hardware management
=============================
Cache management, managing CPU hotplug, etc.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
cachetlb
cpu_hotplug
memory-hotplug
genericirq
protection-keys
Memory management
=================
How to allocate and use memory in the kernel. Note that there is a lot
more memory-management documentation in :doc:`/vm/index`.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
memory-allocation
mm-api
genalloc
pin_user_pages
boot-time-mm
gfp_mask-from-fs-io
Interfaces for kernel debugging
===============================
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
debug-objects
tracepoint
Everything else
===============
Documents that don't fit elsewhere or which have yet to be categorized.
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 1
librs
.. only:: subproject and html
Indices
