Linux kernel They are just listed there only, but if you look at their names, you'll find that they're really candidates. Most of the stuff seems to serve debugging or testing purposes. Others are simply a little premature since they're not fully working yet (DEVFS_ROOT), so users of it are expected to understand what they're doing anyway.
