This patch does not translate entirely the subfolder "process/" but only part of it (to begin with). In order to avoid broken links, I included empty documents for those which are not yet translated. In order to be able to refer to all documents in "process/", I added a sphinx label to those which had not one. Translated documents: - howto - 1.Intro - clang-format - coding-style - kernel-driver-statement - magic-number - volatile-considered-harmful - development-process Signed-off-by: Federico Vaga <federico.vaga@vaga.pv.it> Signed-off-by: Alessia Mantegazza <amantegazza@vaga.pv.it> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

Kernel Driver Statement

Position Statement on Linux Kernel Modules
|
|
==========================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
We, the undersigned Linux kernel developers, consider any closed-source
|
|
Linux kernel module or driver to be harmful and undesirable. We have
|
|
repeatedly found them to be detrimental to Linux users, businesses, and
|
|
the greater Linux ecosystem. Such modules negate the openness,
|
|
stability, flexibility, and maintainability of the Linux development
|
|
model and shut their users off from the expertise of the Linux
|
|
community. Vendors that provide closed-source kernel modules force their
|
|
customers to give up key Linux advantages or choose new vendors.
|
|
Therefore, in order to take full advantage of the cost savings and
|
|
shared support benefits open source has to offer, we urge vendors to
|
|
adopt a policy of supporting their customers on Linux with open-source
|
|
kernel code.
|
|
|
|
We speak only for ourselves, and not for any company we might work for
|
|
today, have in the past, or will in the future.
