Herd7 transforms reads, writes, and read-modify-writes by eliminating
'acquire tags from writes, 'release tags from reads, and 'acquire,
'release, and 'mb tags from failed read-modify-writes. We emulate this
behavior by redefining Acquire, Release, and Mb sets in linux-kernel.bell
to explicitly exclude those combinations.
Herd7 furthermore adds 'noreturn tag to certain reads. Currently herd7
does not allow specifying the 'noreturn tag manually, but such manual
declaration (e.g., through a syntax __atomic_op{noreturn}) would add
invalid 'noreturn tags to writes; in preparation, we already also exclude
this combination.

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 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.
