2020-06-26Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: Documentation/processAlexander A. Klimov1-14/+14
Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

2020-03-02docs: kernel-docs: Remove "Here is its" at the end of linesJonathan Neuschäfer1-5/+5
Before commit 9e03ea7f683e ("Documentation/kernel-docs.txt: convert it to ReST markup"), it read: Description: Linux Journal Kernel Korner article. Here is its abstract: "..." In Sphinx' HTML formatting, however, the "Here is its" doesn't make sense anymore, because the "Abstract:" is clearly separated.

2019-04-08Documentation: kernel-docs: Remove entry for vfs.txtJonathan Neuschäfer1-12/+0
It's unnecessary to point to an external mirror of the Documentation directory. Jonathan Corbet writes in favor of removing this entry, instead of moving it under "Docs at the Linux Kernel tree": > We don't want to turn kernel-docs.rst into yet another out-of-date > index for the rest of Documentation/, and the removal of the external > URL takes away the only bit of additional information that this entry > offers.
