| 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. | |
