lkml.org has been unstable for the past few... umm years, so The Linux Foundation runs its own lkml archive - lore.kernel.org/lkml/

Alternative link, just in case: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d9802b6a-949b-b327-c4a6-3dbca48...

That html code in lore.kernel.org is weird, I wonder how it's generated.

It's a somewhat common trick I believe. The idea is this; you want newlines inbetween your tags, but if you have HTML code like `<div>foo</div>\n<div>bar</div>`, you end up with an unwanted text node with a space inbetween the divs which changes how the page looks. By putting the newline inside the tags instead of between them, you don't have any unwanted text nodes.

lkml.org is not official
