While typing these I think doing an s/component_master/aggregate/ would be useful: - it's shorter :-) - I think component/aggregate is much more meaningful naming than component/puppetmaster or something like that. At least to my English ear "aggregate" emphasizes much more the "assemble a pile of things into something bigger" aspect, and there's not really much of a control hierarchy between aggregate and constituing components. But that's way more than a quick doc typing exercise ... Thanks to Ram for commenting on an initial draft of these docs. v2: Review from Rafael: - git add Documenation/driver-api/component.rst - lots of polish to the wording + spelling fixes. v3: Review from Russell: - s/framework/helper - clarify the documentation for component_match_add functions. v4: Remove a few superflous "This".

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 Restructured Text 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.
