2022-06-24docs: UML: fix typoSteven Lung1-1/+1
Replace 'absense' with 'absence'. Signed-off-by: Steven Lung <1030steven@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220621072910.4704-1-1030steven@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2022-03-11docs: UML: Mention telnetd for port channelVincent Whitchurch1-1/+5
It is not obvious from the documentation that using the "port" channel for the console requires telnetd to be installed (see port_connection() in arch/um/drivers/port_user.c). Mention this, and the fact that UML will not boot until a client connects.

2020-09-24docs: replace the old User Mode Linux HowTo with a new oneAnton Ivanov2-4403/+1208
The new HowTo migrates the portions of the old howto which are still relevant to a new document, updates them to linux 5.x and adds documentation for vector transports and other new features.

2020-02-12docs: virt: user_mode_linux.rst: update compiling instructionsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-53/+9
Instead of pointing for a pre-2.4 and a seaparate patch, update it to match current upstream, as UML was merged a long time ago. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2020-02-12docs: virt: convert UML documentation to ReSTMauro Carvalho Chehab1-915/+786
Despite being an old document, it contains lots of information that could still be useful. The document has a nice style with makes easy to convert to ReST. So, let's convert it to ReST. This patch does: - Use proper markups for titles; - Mark and proper indent literal blocks; - don't use an 'o' character for lists; - other minor changes required for the doc to be parsed.

2019-07-24Documentation: move Documentation/virtual to Documentation/virtChristoph Hellwig1-0/+4589
Renaming docs seems to be en vogue at the moment, so fix on of the grossly misnamed directories. We usually never use "virtual" as a shortcut for virtualization in the kernel, but always virt, as seen in the virt/ top-level directory. Fix up the documentation to match that.
