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.

F29 bans mapping first 64KB even for root making test fail. Iterate from address 0 until mmap() works. Gentoo (root): openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/zero", O_RDONLY) = 3 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = 0 Gentoo (non-root): openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/zero", O_RDONLY) = 3 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) mmap(0x1000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = 0x1000 F29 (root): openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/zero", O_RDONLY) = 3 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x1000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x2000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x3000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x4000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x5000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x6000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x7000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x8000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x9000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0xa000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0xb000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0xc000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0xd000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0xe000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0xf000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) mmap(0x10000, 4096, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = 0x10000 Now all proc tests succeed on F29 if run as root, at last!
