Alex Williamson f621eb13fa vfio-pci: Provide reviewers and acceptance criteria for variant drivers
Device specific extensions for devices exposed to userspace through
the vfio-pci-core library open both new functionality and new risks.
Here we attempt to provided formalized requirements and expectations
to ensure that future drivers both collaborate in their interaction
with existing host drivers, as well as receive additional reviews
from community members with experience in this area.

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.
