Linux kernel source tree
The "SEE ALSO" sections of bpftool's manual pages refer to bpf(2), bpf-helpers(7), then all existing bpftool man pages (save the current one). This leads to nearly-identical lists being duplicated in all manual pages. Ideally, when a new page is created, all lists should be updated accordingly, but this has led to omissions and inconsistencies multiple times in the past. Let's take it out of the RST files and generate the "SEE ALSO" sections automatically in the Makefile when generating the man pages. The lists are not really useful in the RST anyway because all other pages are available in the same directory. v3: - Fix conflict with a previous patchset that introduced RST2MAN_OPTS variable passed to rst2man. v2: - Use "echo -n" instead of "printf" in Makefile, to avoid any risk of passing a format string directly to the command.

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.
