# Linux kernel

There are several guides for kernel developers and users.

These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

Please read `Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst` first.

In order to build the documentation, use `make htmldocs` or `make pdfdocs`. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
