The original shell script works, but: 1) it is too slow; 2) it is hard to exclude rejex patterns Convert it to perl. Here, the new version is able to check the entire tree in less than a second (after cached): real 0m0,284s user 0m0,668s sys 0m0,778s The old version takes more than a minute to complete (also after cached): real 1m17,905s user 0m25,583s sys 0m55,334s It also produce less false-positives (if any). The new script also contains an auto-fix mode. Usually, file references get lost when they're moved to some other place and/or renamed to .rst. Add an experimental mode to auto-fix those.

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.
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.
