+Lenguaje de programación
+========================
+
+El kernel está escrito en el lenguaje de programación C [sp-c-language]_.
+Más concretamente, el kernel normalmente se compila con ``gcc`` [sp-gcc]_
+bajo ``-std=gnu11`` [sp-gcc-c-dialect-options]_: el dialecto GNU de ISO C11.
+``clang`` [sp-clang]_ también es compatible, consulte los documentos en
+:ref:`Building Linux with Clang/LLVM <kbuild_llvm>`.
+
+Este dialecto contiene muchas extensiones del lenguaje [sp-gnu-extensions]_,
+y muchos de ellos se usan dentro del kernel de forma habitual.
+
+Hay algo de soporte para compilar el núcleo con ``icc`` [sp-icc]_ para varias
+de las arquitecturas, aunque en el momento de escribir este texto, eso no
+está terminado y requiere parches de terceros.
+
+Atributos
+---------
+
+Una de las comunes extensiones utilizadas en todo el kernel son los atributos
+[sp-gcc-attribute-syntax]_. Los atributos permiten introducir semántica
+definida por la implementación a las entidades del lenguaje (como variables,
+funciones o tipos) sin tener que hacer cambios sintácticos significativos
+al idioma (por ejemplo, agregar una nueva palabra clave) [sp-n2049]_.
+
+En algunos casos, los atributos son opcionales (es decir, hay compiladores
+que no los admiten pero de todos modos deben producir el código adecuado,
+incluso si es más lento o no realiza tantas comprobaciones/diagnósticos en
+tiempo de compilación).
+
+El kernel define pseudo-palabras clave (por ejemplo, ``__pure``) en lugar
+de usar directamente la sintaxis del atributo GNU (por ejemplo,
+``__attribute__((__pure__))``) con el fin de detectar cuáles se pueden
+utilizar y/o acortar el código.
+
+Por favor consulte ``include/linux/compiler_attributes.h`` para obtener
+más información.
