2017-03-04Documentation/sphinx: fix primary_domain configurationJohn Keeping1-1/+1
With Sphinx 1.5.3 I get the warning: WARNING: primary_domain 'C' not found, ignored. It seems that domain names in Sphinx are case-sensitive and for the C domain the name must be lower case. Signed-off-by: John Keeping <john@metanate.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

Build of HTML docs failing due to conversion of deviceiobook.tmpl in 8a8a602f and regulator.tmpl in 028f2533 to RST without removing from DOCBOOKS in Makefile, resulting (in the case of deviceiobook) the following error: make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'Documentation/DocBook/deviceiobook.xml', needed by 'Documentation/DocBook/deviceiobook.aux.xml'.

2017-02-21docs / driver-api: Fix structure references in device_link.rstRafael J. Wysocki1-8/+10
The format of the structure references in device_link.rst is incorrect, because it doesn't cause proper references to the struct data types to be generated (for struct dev_pm_domain in particular). Fix that by using the :c:type:`struct name <name>` convention for encoding references to struct data types.

2017-02-21PM / docs: Fix structure references in device.rstRafael J. Wysocki1-34/+38
There is a better way to represent structure references than it was done in device.rst by commit 730c4c053012 (PM / sleep / docs: Convert PM notifiers document to reST), which is to use "struct name" as a link caption (e.g. :c:type:`struct device <device>`). That will cause sphinx to generate a proper reference to the data type in question (struct device in the example above) and "struct name" will work as the link in the HTML output. Fix device.rst by using that convention where applicable. Fixes: 730c4c053012 (PM / sleep / docs: Convert PM notifiers document to reST) Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2017-02-01Documentation/sphinx: prevent generation of .pyc files in the source treeJani Nikula1-0/+1
Use PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 to prevent python from creating .pyc files in the source tree. Python 3.2 has a __pycache__ scheme [1], but before that the only alternative seems to be to copy the source files to the build tree to ensure the .pyc files are created there too. Just prevent .pyc file generation for simplicity. Considering the small amount of python code to compile (assuming sphinx itself has .pyc around), the impact on build is neglible.

2017-02-01docs: Convert the deviceio template to RSTJonathan Corbet3-323/+202
Convert deviceiobook.tmpl to RST and incorporate it into the driver API manual. Like the rest of our documentation, this one could use some work. There's no mention of ioremap() and friends, no mention of io_read*() and friends. But we have nice documentation for all those folks writing new drivers that do port I/O :). The :c:func: notation has been left off of all the read*/write* functions. There's no kerneldoc comments for them anyway, so those links will never be live, and writing a bunch of repetitive "read a byte from I/O memory" comments lacks appeal.

2017-01-05kernel-doc: make highlights more homogenous for the various backendsPaolo Bonzini1-18/+50
$type_struct_full and friends are only used by the restructuredText backend, because it needs to separate enum/struct/typedef/union from the name of the type. However, $type_struct is *also* used by the rST backend. This is confusing. This patch replaces $type_struct's use in the rST backend with a new $type_fallback; it modifies $type_struct so that it can be used in the rST backend; and creates regular expressions like $type_struct for enum/typedef/union, for use in all backends. Note that, compared to $type_*_full, in the new regexes $1 includes both the "kind" and the name (before, $1 was pretty much a constant).

2017-01-05kernel-doc: make member highlighting available in all backendsPaolo Bonzini1-11/+19

For consistency, this change is applied to $type_member and $type_member_func too, not just to $type_member_xml. List mode only prints the struct name, to avoid any undesired change in the operation of docproc.

Handle those too. Furthermore, attributes could be at the beginning of a function declaration, before the return type.
