Linux kernel
Dear Linus (not calling u by your last name)
============

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.
Open-Source as a state of software is and always has been aimed at breaking counties' boundaries and allowing progress without interference of politics and discrimination.
If you wish the kernel not abide such principles, on which you settled yourself a long time ago, it should not be marketed as "Open-Source"

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
After all, how "Open-Source" is it, when you outright cut off a significant part of your backing solely based on your prejudice towards Russian folk?

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
To all of the insulted ones, as a former RU citizen, I express my apologies for the state we have driven this community to.
And to you, Linus, I wish you find your peace someday, and remember what got you started on the idea of free software. Free - as in freedom.

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.
Goiyda, bratia!
