To facilitate a transfer from SOC_FOO to ARCH_FOO, over a release cycle, introduce some aliases so that drivers etc that use the SOC_FOO symbols can be converted. Signed-off-by: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@microchip.com> --- To me, the most straight-forward conversion looks like so: - this patch is applied in week 2 of the merge window, to avoid any conflicts with the Renesas tree - all users of the SOC_ variants can be converted over a release cycle (or more) & no trees need to merge an immutable branch. - we convert defconfig etc over after all users are converted - doing it over at least one release cycle means that `make oldconfig` will keep people's configs working as they upgrade - any new SoC families added uses ARCH_FOO
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 Restructured Text 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.
