Hi, A recent discussion about differences in the "panic" description in sysctl/kernel.rst led me to look into completing that file, and it turned out that more work was needed than documenting "panic". This patch series is the first batch, making the resulting documentation hopefully nicer and more accurate. It doesn't add fields that are present in 5.5 but not documented; I've started adding these, but I'd rather submit them individually once the basic kernel.rst is committed, to make it easier to request review from the appropriate maintainers (each patch adding documentation should be mergeable separately, without needing a patch series). Regards, Stephen Changes in v2: * in the first patch, drop the first kernel version mention, leave the copyright lines alone; * in the second patch, merge : and ::, drop a smartquote in favour of a plain quote; * in commit messages, give the references used for the documentation; * add a script to check the documentation against the code; * drop the rtsig entries which are not relevant now (as revealed by the check script).
