Currently script just dumps all results found. Potentially, this risks losing single results among multiple duplicate results. We need some way of restricting duplicates to assist users of the script. It would also be nice if we got a report instead of raw results. Duplicates can be defined in various ways, instead of trying to find a single perfect solution we can present the user with various options to display the output. Doing so will typically lead to users wanting to view the output multiple times. Currently we scan the kernel each time, this is slow and unnecessary. We can expedite the process by writing the results to file for subsequent viewing. Add command line options to enable summary reporting, including options to write to and read from file.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
