5 This is the beginning of a manual for core kernel APIs. The conversion
6 (and writing!) of documents for this manual is much appreciated!
11 This section has general and "core core" documentation. The first is a
12 massive grab-bag of kerneldoc info left over from the docbook days; it
13 should really be broken up someday when somebody finds the energy to do
25 Data structures and low-level utilities
26 =======================================
28 Library functionality that is used throughout the kernel.
45 Concurrency primitives
46 ======================
48 How Linux keeps everything from happening at the same time. See
49 :doc:`/locking/index` for more related documentation.
61 Low-level hardware management
62 =============================
64 Cache management, managing CPU hotplug, etc.
78 How to allocate and use memory in the kernel. Note that there is a lot
79 more memory-management documentation in :doc:`/vm/index`.
95 Interfaces for kernel debugging
96 ===============================
