Semi automated conversion, in part because Pandoc is kind of buggy for adoc:

Some of the commands were along the lines:

    for f in *.md; do pandoc --atx-headers --base-header-level=3 -o ${f%.md}.adoc --wrap=none $f; done
    sed -Ei '/\[\[.*\]\]/d' *.adoc
    while read -r f; do cat $f; echo; done <f >g

=== Record and replay
QEMU supports deterministic record and replay by saving external inputs, which would be awesome to understand the kernel, as you would be able to examine a single run as many times as you would like.
Unfortunately it is not working in the current QEMU: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46970215/how-to-use-qemus-deterministic-record-and-replay-feature-for-a-linux-kernel-boo
Alternatively, https://github.com/mozilla/rr[`mozilla/rr`] claims it is able to run QEMU: but using it would require you to step through QEMU code itself. Likely doable, but do you really want to?
