[PATCH v2 08/29] docs: early-userspace: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The two files there describes a Kernel API feature, used to
support early userspace stuff. Prepare for moving them to
the kernel API book by converting to ReST format.

The conversion itself was quite trivial: just add/mark a few
titles as such, add a literal block markup, add a table markup
and a few blank lines, in order to make Sphinx to properly parse it.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
