On Ubuntu Focal, strings in some of SVG files under
Documentation/RCU/Design can not be rendered properly when
converted to PDF.
Ubuntu releases since Focal and Debian bullseye have trouble
with "Symbol" font-family in SVG files.
As those strings are mostly API names such as "READ_ONCE()",
"WRITE_ONCE(), "rcu_read_lock()", and so on, using a generic
monospace font-family should be a good alternative.
Substitute the font-family name by a simple sed pattern:
's/Symbol/monospace/g'

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.
