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.

Building individual drivers as modules is fine but allowing a core framework to be built as a module makes it really complex and should be avoided. Whatever uses the interconnect core APIs must also be built as a module if interconnect core is built as module, else we will see compilation failures. If another core framework (like cpufreq, clk, etc), that can't be built as module, needs to use interconnect APIs then we will start seeing compilation failures with allmodconfig configurations as the symbols (like of_icc_get()) used in other frameworks will not be available in the built-in image. Disallow the interconnect core to be built as a module to avoid all these issues. Signed-off-by:Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Reviewed-by:
