| ABI testing symbols |
| =================== |
| |
| Documents interfaces that are felt to be stable, |
| as the main development of this interface has been completed. |
| |
| The interface can be changed to add new features, but the |
| current interface will not break by doing this, unless grave |
| errors or security problems are found in them. |
| |
| Userspace programs can start to rely on these interfaces, but they must |
| be aware of changes that can occur before these interfaces move to |
| be marked stable. |
| |
| Programs that use these interfaces are strongly encouraged to add their |
| name to the description of these interfaces, so that the kernel |
| developers can easily notify them if any changes occur. |
