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.

As realised by commit 9e3d6223 ("math64, timers: Fix 32bit mul_u64_u32_shr() and friends"), GCC does not always generate ideal code for performing a 32b x 32b multiply returning a 64b result (i.e. where we idiomatically use u64 result = (u64)x * (u32)x).
