Wiki for rump kernels

Wiki Guidelines

This page lists high-level guidelines for editing http://wiki.rumpkernel.org/.

Titles

Use a page title of the form "Category: Subject". The categories are used for creating the navbar on the wiki.

The current categories are:

• Builds: automated builds, tests, etc.
• Howto: Howtos document specific tasks
• Info: General information, e.g. historical info, TODO-lists, etc.
• Performance: important points about optimization, tuning, etc.
• Project ideas: detailed description of a project looking for idle hands.
• Tutorial: Instructions starting from zero and working towards mastering a subject area (e.g. debugging or networking)

If the article does not fit into the existing categories, please propose a new category on the [email protected] mailing list.

Additionally, the following categories exist, but they should be used only if the respective code exists and is available:

• Repo: main pages for repositories hosted under http://repo.rumpkernel.org/
• Platforms: descriptions of platforms that rump kernels run on

Do not change titles after an article has been published, since that will alter the article's URL and render any hyperlinks to the article invalid.

Linking

Use the format [[text|article title]] to link to other articles on this wiki, e.g. to link to the platform page you could use [[Platforms supported by rump kernels|Platforms]]. The advantage of this format is that dead links will be flagged when the page is rendered.

To link to this wiki from an external source, use the URL http://wiki.rumpkernel.org/article-name, e.g. http://wiki.rumpkernel.org/Platforms for the platforms page. To link to a rump kernel repository (currently hosted on Github), use http://repo.rumpkernel.org/reponame, e.g. http://repo.rumpkernel.org/buildrump.sh for buildrump.sh. Avoid linking to non-rumpkernel.org URLs.
