2016-12-01docs-rst: parse-headers.pl: cleanup the documentationMauro Carvalho Chehab1-107/+9
Keeping both rst and in-file documentation in sync can be harsh. So, simplify the script's internal documntation to a bare minimum, and add a mention to the ReST file with its full documentation. This way, a quick help is still available at the command line, while the complete one is maintained at the ReST format. As we won't be using pad2rst anymore, do a cleanup at the ReST file.

2016-11-19parse-headers.pl: add documentation for this scriptMauro Carvalho Chehab1-13/+180
Provide a man page for parse-headers.pl, describing how to use it. The documentation on ReST format was generated via pod2rst: http://search.cpan.org/~dowens/Pod-POM-View-Restructured-0.02/bin/pod2rst Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2016-09-09[media] docs-rst: parse-headers.pl: use the C domain for cross-referencesMauro Carvalho Chehab1-54/+59
Instead of keep using the normal reference, move to the C domain ones. Using C domains everywhere will allow cross-references between kAPI and uAPI docs. Acked-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-09-09[media] docs-rst: parse-headers.pl: make debug a command line optionMauro Carvalho Chehab1-4/+10
Add a parser for the --debug option, in order to allow seeing what the parser is doing. Acked-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-08-19docs-rst: parse-heraders.pl: escape LaTeX charactersMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
Let's escape the LaTeX characters, to avoid troubles when outputing them. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2016-07-09doc-rst: parse-headers: remove trailing spacesMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+2
The function that replace references add a "\ " at the end of references, to avoid the ReST markup parser to not identify them as references. That works fine except for the end of lines, as a sequence of { '\', ' ', '\n' } characters makes Sphinx to ignore the end of line. So, strip those escape/spaces at the end of lines.

2016-07-07doc-rst: parse-headers: don't do substituition referencesMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
Add one extra escape character to avoid those warnings: Documentation/linux_tv/videodev2.h.rst:6: WARNING: Inline substitution_reference start-string without end-string. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-07doc-rst: parse-headers: add an option to ignore enum symbolsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+4
At videodev2.h, we have hundreds of symbols that don't currently have a reference yet. Let's ignore for how, while we don't improve those cross-refs. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-07doc-rst: parse-headers: better handle comments at the source codeMauro Carvalho Chehab1-3/+14
We should not let comments to mangle with the symbols parsing. Unfortunately, videodev2.h has lots of those in the middle of enums and structs. So, we need to improve our parser to discard them. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-07doc-rst: parse-headers: fix multiline typedef handlerMauro Carvalho Chehab1-3/+4
The typedef handler should do two things to be generic: 1) parse typedef enums; 2) accept both possible syntaxes: typedef struct foo { .. } foo_t; typedef struct { .. } foo_t; Unfortunately, this is needed to parse some legacy DVB files, like dvb/audio.h.

2016-07-07doc-rst: parse-headers: better handle typedefsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-2/+7
When typedef is used on its multiline format, we need to also parse enum and struct in the same line. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-07doc-rst: parse-headers: be more formal about the valid symbolsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-8/+8
Be more formal about the valid symbols that are expected by the parser, to match what c language expects. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-07doc-rst: fix parsing comments and '{' on a separate lineMauro Carvalho Chehab1-6/+11
The dmx.h header has two things that causes the parser to break while handling enums: per-header enums and the '{' starts on a new line Both makes the parser to get lexical marks to be detected as if they were symbols. Fix it. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-07doc-dst: parse-headers: highlight deprecated commentsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+2
When something is deprecated, highlight it, as we want it to be clearer to the reader. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-07doc-rst: parse-headers: improve delimiters to detect symbolsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-13/+14
As we had to escape the symbols for the ReST markup to not do the wrong thing, the logic to discover start/end of strings are not trivial. Improve the end delimiter detection, in order to highlight more occurrences of the strings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-07doc-rst: add parse-headers.pl scriptMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+290
This script parses a header file and converts it into a parsed-literal block, creating references for ioctls, defines, typedefs, enums and structs. It also allow an external file to modify the rules, in order to fix the expressions. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
