Linus Torvalds c3cda60e83 Another moderately busy cycle in docsland:
- Work on Chinese translations has picked up again.  Happily, they are
   maintaining the existing translations and not just adding new ones.
 
 - Some maintenance of the Japanese and Italian translations as well.
 
 - The removal of the venerable "dontdiff" file.  It has long outlived its
   usefulness and contained entries ("parse.*") that would actively mask
   actual source change.
 
 - The addition of enforcement information to the code-of-conduct
   documentation.
 
 Along with some build-system fixes and a lot of typo and language fixes.

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.
