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.

The macro __BUG_INSN currently is defined as the "ebreak" opcode. The is_valid_bugaddr() function compares the instruction pointed to by $sepc with macro __BUG_INSN to check whether the current trap exception is caused by an "ebreak" instruction. However, this check flow is possibly erroneous because if C extension is supported, the expected trap instruction "ebreak" is possibly translated to "c.ebreak" by the assembler. Therefore, it requires a mechanism to distinguish the length of the instruction in $spec and compare it to the correct trap instruction.
