We would still need at least a pointer from the Linux kernel to that documentation, but I am happy either way. We probably need examples of the common cases, but probably not a full exposition of all the available herd7 edges. Should this be in the herdtools7 documentation, or as added detail from a variation on the "diyone7 -bell linux-kernel.bell -show edges" command? If the latter, I suppose that the ones coming from the .bell file might simply be labelled as such. Thanx, Paul
