Perl, as with most scripting languages, is fairly flexible in how / where you can define things, and it will (for the most part) do what you would expect it to do. This however can lead to situations, like with ktest, where things get muddled over time. This pushes the variable definitions back up to the top, followed by functions, with the main script executables down at the bottom, INSTEAD of being somewhat mish-mashed together in certain places. This mostly has the advantage of making it more obvious where things are initially defined, what functions are there, and ACTUALLY where the main script starts executing, and should make this a little more approachable.

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.
