Documentation/sphinx: fix Python string escapes

2024-02-05T20:14:13+00:00

commit 86a0adc029d338f0da8989e7bb453c1114d51960 upstream. Python 3.6 introduced a DeprecationWarning for invalid escape sequences. This is upgraded to a SyntaxWarning in Python 3.12, and will eventually be a syntax error. Fix these now to get ahead of it before it's an error.

Docs: drop Python 2 support

2021-02-02T00:17:14+00:00

The kernel build system as a whole is dropping support for Python 2, so we should do the same. The effects are rather small, especially considering that much of the deleted code was not doing anything under any version of Python anyway. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

doc-rst: Programmatically render MAINTAINERS into ReST

2019-10-02T16:03:17+00:00

In order to have the MAINTAINERS file visible in the rendered ReST output, this makes some small changes to the existing MAINTAINERS file to allow for better machine processing, and adds a new Sphinx directive "maintainers-include" to perform the rendering. Features include: - Per-subsystem reference links: subsystem maintainer entries can be trivially linked to both internally and external. For example: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainers.html#secure-computing - Internally referenced .rst files are linked so they can be followed when browsing the resulting rendering. This allows, for example, the future addition of maintainer profiles to be automatically linked. - Field name expansion: instead of the short fields (e.g. "M", "F", "K"), use the indicated inline "full names" for the fields (which are marked with "*"s in MAINTAINERS) so that a rendered subsystem entry is more human readable. Email lists are additionally comma-separated.
