This is meant to be the place for documentation relevant to application
developers.  It's empty for the moment, but at least we have a place now!

The Linux kernel user-space API guide

=====================================



.. _man-pages: https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/



While much of the kernel's user-space API is documented elsewhere

(particularly in the man-pages_ project), some user-space information can

also be found in the kernel tree itself.  This manual is intended to be the

place where this information is gathered.
