 FreeBSD Kernel Source:
 ----------------------
 
 This directory contains the source files and build glue that make up the FreeBSD
 kernel and its modules, including both original and contributed software.
 
 Kernel configuration files are located in the `conf/` subdirectory of each
 architecture. `GENERIC` is the configuration used in release builds. `NOTES`
 contains documentation of all possible entries. `LINT` is a compile-only
 configuration used to maximize build coverage and detect regressions.
