2025-04-07docs: initramfs: update compression and mtime descriptionsDavid Disseldorp
Update the document to reflect that initramfs didn't replace initrd following kernel 2.5.x. The initramfs buffer format now supports many compression types in addition to gzip, so include them in the grammar section. c_mtime use is dependent on CONFIG_INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME.

2021-07-18Documentation: Fix intiramfs script nameRobert Richter
Documentation was not changed when renaming the script in commit 80e715a06c2d ("initramfs: rename gen_initramfs_list.sh to gen_initramfs.sh"). Fixing this. Basically does: $ sed -i -e s/gen_initramfs_list.sh/gen_initramfs.sh/g $(git grep -l gen_initramfs_list.sh) Fixes: 80e715a06c2d ("initramfs: rename gen_initramfs_list.sh to gen_initramfs.sh") Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <rrichter@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
2020-06-26Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: Documentation/driver-apiAlexander A. Klimov
Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
