selftests, bpf: Make docs tests fail more reliably
Previously, if rst2man caught errors, then these would be ignored and the output file would be written anyway. This would allow developers to introduce regressions in the docs comments in the BPF headers. Additionally, even if you instruct rst2man to fail out, it will still write out to the destination target file, so if you ran the tests twice in a row it would always pass. Use a temporary file for the initial run to ensure that if rst2man fails out under "--strict" mode, subsequent runs will not automatically pass. Tested via ./tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_doc_build.sh Signed-off-by: Joe Stringer <joe@cilium.io> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Reviewed-by: Quentin Monnet <quentin@isovalent.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210608015756.340385-1-joe@cilium.io
