Linus Torvalds c4e0ca7fa2 RISC-V: We have a new mailing list and git repo!
Sorry to send something essentially as late as possible (Friday after an
 rc9), but we managed to get a mailing list for the RISC-V Linux port.
 We've been using patches@groups.riscv.org for a while, but that list has
 some problems (it's Google Groups and it's shared over all RISC-V
 software projects).  The new infaread.org list is much better.   We just
 got it on Wednesday but I used it a bit on Thursday to shake out all the
 configuration problems and it appears to be in working order.
 
 When I updated the mailing list I noticed that the MAINTAINERS file was
 pointing to our github repo, but now that we have a kernel.org repo I'd
 like to point to that instead so I changed that as well.  We'll be
 centralizing all RISC-V Linux related development here as that seems to
 be the saner way to go about it.
 
 I can understand if it's too late to get this into 4.15, but given that
 it's not a code change I was hoping it'd still be OK.  It would be nice
 to have the new mailing list and git repo in the release tarballs so
 when people start to find bugs they'll get to the right place.

README

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.
