Documentation/process/botching-up-ioctls.rst was orignally written as a blog post for DRM driver writers, so it it misses some points while going into a lot of detail on others. Try to provide a replacement that addresses typical issues across a wider range of subsystems, and follows the style of the core-api documentation better. Many improvements to the document are suggested by Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@codethink.co.uk>, Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> and Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org>.

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.
