 Buildroot offers a helper infrastructure to build some userspace tools
 for the target available within the Linux kernel sources. Since their
-source code is part of the kernel source code, it is not very
-practical to use separate packages for them as they often need to be
-built with the same kernel version as the kernel being used on the
-target. The small Linux kernel tools infrastructure is a simplified
-packaging mechanism based on the generic package infrastructure to
-help building those tools.
+source code is part of the kernel source code, a special package,
++linux-tools+, exists and re-uses the sources of the Linux kernel that
+runs on the target.
 
 Let's look at an example of a Linux tool. For a new Linux tool named
 +foo+, create a new menu entry in the existing
-+linux/Config.tools.in+.  This file will contain the option
++package/linux-tools/Config.in+.  This file will contain the option
 descriptions related to each kernel tool that will be used and
 displayed in the configuration tool. It would basically look like:
 
 ------------------------------
-01: config BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_TOOL_FOO
+01: config BR2_PACKAGE_LINUX_TOOLS_FOO
 02: 	bool "foo"
-03: 	help
-04: 	  This is a comment that explains what foo kernel tool is.

-The name of the option starts with the prefix +BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_TOOL_+,
+The name of the option starts with the prefix +BR2_PACKAGE_LINUX_TOOLS_+,
 followed by the uppercase name of the tool (like is done for packages).
 
-Then for each linux tool, add a new +.mk+ file named +linux/linux-tool-foo.mk+.
-It would basically look like:

+Unlike other packages, the +linux-tools+ package options appear in the
++linux+ kernel menu, under the `Linux Kernel Tools` sub-menu, not under
+the `Target packages` main menu.
