A convoluted test case for iterators convergence logic that
demonstrates that states with branch count equal to 0 might still be
a part of not completely explored loop.
E.g. consider the following state diagram:
initial Here state 'succ' was processed first,
| it was eventually tracked to produce a
V state identical to 'hdr'.
.---------> hdr All branches from 'succ' had been explored
| | and thus 'succ' has its .branches == 0.
| V
| .------... Suppose states 'cur' and 'succ' correspond
| | | to the same instruction + callsites.
| V V In such case it is necessary to check
| ... ... whether 'succ' and 'cur' are identical.
| | | If 'succ' and 'cur' are a part of the same loop
| V V they have to be compared exactly.
| succ <- cur
| |
| V
| ...

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.
