Dear Linux kernel documentation writers and readers:
Writing Linux documentation is a huge complex collaborative process. To make it better I invite you to contribute to https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/The_Linux_Kernel .
Main benefits of the book: - Readers friendly architecture - Convenient common wikimedia format
I know people that would disagree with these points ;-)
- Hosted on wikibooks.org - Updateable by everyone.
And this point also has dubious value. All in-tree documentation is carefully reviewed. It might be outdated, yes, but at least at the time it is written we know it is correct. This is not necessarily a case with an open wiki.
I've designed the front page matrix table of contents and composed draft articles with outline, links to kernel documentation, sources and other resources. Sometimes visitors of the book contribute to it. My vision is to have a complete updated wikibook about Linux kernel written by many experienced developers. Please vist page https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/The_Linux_Kernel/About for the book desripton.
Welcome to contribute to https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/The_Linux_Kernel!
If you have ideas about how to organize and improve our documentation you are welcome to contribute to Documentation/ in the kernel tree ;-) -- Sincerely yours, Mike.
