- First use the headers inside the kernel, and then the system headers. The
- internal headers should be the primary focus to be able to find regressions.
Clarifying the location of the headers might be helpful. This description uses different terminology to describe kernel headers.
"First use the headers inside the kernel sources and/or git reo" would make this clear. Instead of "internal headers" headers for the kernel release as opposed to headers installed by the distro on the system would make a clear distinction.
