SECTION 9 MAN PAGES
|
||||||
|
===================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These have nothing to with man-pages. They are documentation
|
||||||
|
of in-kernel APIs, built from specially formatted comments in
|
||||||
|
the kernel source. After installing the required software, these
|
||||||
|
pages can be built from a kernel source tree using the command
|
||||||
|
'make mandocs'; see the kernel source file Documentation/HOWTO
|
||||||
|
for more information.
