2016-11-03Documentation/sphinx: set literal block highlight language to noneJani Nikula1-1/+1
Set the default highlight language to "none", i.e. do not try to guess the language and do automatic syntax highlighting on literal blocks. Eyeballing around the generated documentation, we don't seem to actually have a lot of literal blocks that would benefit from syntax highlighting. The C code blocks we do have are typically very short, and most of the literal blocks are things that shouldn't be highlighted (or, do not have a pygments lexer). This seems to be true for literal blocks both in the rst source files and in source code comments. Not highlighting code is never wrong, but guessing the language wrong almost invariably leads to silly or confusing highlighting. At the time of writing, admin-guide/oops-tracing.rst and admin-guide/ramoops.rst contain good examples of 1) a small C code snippet not highlighted, 2) a hex dump highligted as who knows what, 3) device tree block highlighted as C or maybe Python, 4) a terminal interaction highlighted as code in some language, and finally, 5) some C code snippets correctly identified as C. I think we're better off disabling language guessing, and going by explicitly identified languages for longer code blocks. It is still possible to enable highlighting on an rst source file basis using the highlight directive: .. higlight:: language and on a literal block basis using the code-block directive: .. code-block:: language See http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/latest/markup/code.html for details.

2016-10-28Merge branch 'doc-tweaks' into docs-nextJonathan Corbet13-168/+137
The creation of the admin and process guides is a great thing, but, without care, we risk replacing a messy docs directory with a few messy Sphinx books. In an attempt to head that off and show what I'm thinking, here's a set of tweaks that, I think, make the existing Sphinx-formatted docs a bit more accessible.

2016-10-28docs: Clean up and organize the admin guide a bitJonathan Corbet4-17/+45
The admin guide is a good start, but it's time to turn it into something better than an unordered blob of files. This is a first step in that direction. The TOC has been split up and annotated, the guides have been reordered, and minor tweaks have been applied to a few of them. One consequence of splitting up the TOC is that we don't really want to use :numbered: anymore, since the count resets every time and there doesn't seem to be a way to change that. Eventually we probably want to group the documents into sub-books, at which point we can go back to a single TOC, but it's probably early to do that.
