Some of our links use relative paths in order to point to files in the
source tree, e.g.:
//! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](../../../../include/linux/printk.h)
/// [`struct mutex`]: ../../../../include/linux/mutex.h
These are problematic because they are hard to maintain and do not support
`O=` builds.
Instead, provide support for `srctree`-relative links, e.g.:
//! C header: [`include/linux/printk.h`](srctree/include/linux/printk.h)
/// [`struct mutex`]: srctree/include/linux/mutex.h
The links are fixed after `rustdoc` generation to be based on the absolute
path to the source tree.
Essentially, this is the automatic version of Tomonori's fix [1],
suggested by Gary [2].

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.
