2021-02-05docs: Enable usage of relative paths to docs on automarkupNícolas F. R. A. Prado1-2/+5
Previously, a cross-reference to another document could only be created by writing the full path to the document starting from the Documentation/ directory. Extend this to also allow relative paths to be used. A relative path would be just the path, like ../filename.rst, while the absolute path still needs to start from Documentation, like Documentation/filename.rst. As part of this change, the .rst extension is now required for both types of paths, since not requiring it would cause the regex to be too generic.

Sphinx 3.1 introduced namespaces for C cross-references. With this, each C domain type/function declaration is put inside the namespace that was active at the time of its declaration. Add support for automatic cross-referencing inside C namespaces by checking whether the corresponding source file had a C namespace Sphinx directive, and if so, try cross-referencing inside of it before going to the global scope.

With the transition to Sphinx 3, new warnings were caused by automarkup, exposing bugs in the name matching. When automarkup parsed a text like "struct struct" in the documentation, it tried to cross-reference to a "struct" symbol, which is recognized as a C reserved word by Sphinx 3, generating a warning.

With the transition to Sphinx 3, new warnings were generated by automarkup, exposing bugs in the regexes. The warnings were caused by the expressions matching words in the translated versions of the documentation, since any unicode character was matched. Fix the regular expression by making the C regexes use ASCII and ensuring the expressions only match the beginning of words, in order to avoid warnings like this: WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: '调用debugfs_rename' That's probably due to the lack of using spaces between words on Chinese.

2020-10-15docs: cdomain.py: extend it to handle new Sphinx 3.x tagsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+39
While most of the C domain parsing is done via kernel-doc, some RST files use C domain tags directly. While several of them can be removed for Sphinx < 3.0, due to automarkup.py, and several others that could be converted into kernel-doc markups, changes like that are time-consuming, and may not fit all cases. As we already have the cdomain.py for handing backward compatibility with Sphinx versions below 3.0, let's make it more complete, in order to cover any usage of the newer tags outside kernel-doc. This way, it should be feasible to use the new tags inside the Kernel tree, without losing backward compatibility. This should allow fixing the remaining warnings with the Kernel tags.

Since Sphinx 3.0, the C domain code was rewritten, but only after version 3.1 it got support for setting namespaces on C domains, with is something that it is required, in order to document system calls, like ioctl() and others. As part of changing the documentation subsystem to properly build with Sphinx 3.1+, add support for such new tag: .. c:namespace::" Such tag optionally replaces the optional "name" tag for functions, setting a single namespace domain for all C references found at the file. With that, it should be possible to convert existing documentation to be compatible with both Sphinx 1.x/2.x and 3.1+. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
2020-10-15scripts: kernel-doc: allow passing desired Sphinx C domain dialectMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+5

So, add an optional parameter to allow changing the Sphinx dialect. As kernel-doc can also be manually called, keep the auto-detection logic if the parameter was not specified. On such case, emit a warning if sphinx-build can't be found at PATH. I ended using a suggestion from Joe for using a more readable regex, instead of using a complex one with a hidden group like: m/^(\d+)\.(\d+)(?:\.?(\d+)?)/ in order to get the optional <patch> argument.

Cross-referencing to other documentation pages is possible using the :doc:`doc-file` directive from Sphinx. Add automatic markup for references to other documentation pages in the format Documentation/subfolder/doc-file.rst (the extension being optional).

There are some docs that have nested tables. While this was always part of the spec, only Sphinx version 2.4.x can translate it to LaTeX. In other words, if someone is using a Sphinx version < 2.4, the LaTeX and PDF output won't work for some of the docs. So, it seems that it is time to raise the bar again for the recommented version.

To fix this, the following changes are made: - refactor (and rename) scripts/jobserver-exec to set an environment variable for the maximally reserved jobserver slots and exec a child, to release the slots on exit. - create Documentation/scripts/parallel-wrapper.sh which examines both $PARALLELISM and the detected "-jauto" logic from Documentation/Makefile to decide sphinx's final -j argument. - chain these together in Documentation/Makefile Suggested-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/eb25959a-9ec4-3530-2031-d9d716b40b20@rasmusvillemoes.dk Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191121205929.40371-4-keescook@chromium.org Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2019-10-02doc-rst: Programmatically render MAINTAINERS into ReSTKees Cook1-0/+197
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.

2019-08-12Documentation: sphinx: Don't parse socket() as identifier referenceJonathan Neuschäfer1-1/+2
With the introduction of Documentation/sphinx/automarkup.py, socket() is parsed as a reference to the in-kernel definition of socket. Sphinx then decides that struct socket is a good match, which is usually not intended, when the syscall is meant instead. This was observed in Documentation/networking/af_xdp.rst. Prevent socket() from being misinterpreted by adding it to the Skipfuncs list in automarkup.py.

2019-07-19docs: load_config.py: ensure subdirs end with "/"Mauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
The logic with seeks for a subdir passed via SPHINXDIRS is incomplete: if one uses something like: make SPHINXDIRS=arm pdfdocs It will find both "arm" and "arm64" directories. Worse than that, it will convert "arm64/index" to "4/index". Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>
2019-07-17docs: load_config.py: avoid needing a conf.py just due to LaTeX docsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+26
Right now, for every directory that we need to have LaTeX output, a conf.py file is required. That causes an extra overhead and it is actually a hack, as the latex_documents line there are usually a copy of the ones that are there already at the main conf.py. So, instead, re-use the global latex_documents var, just adjusting the path to be relative ones. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>

2019-05-23doc: Cope with the deprecation of AutoReporterJonathan Corbet1-8/+26
AutoReporter is going away; recent versions of sphinx emit a warning like: Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py:125: RemovedInSphinx20Warning: AutodocReporter is now deprecated. Use sphinx.util.docutils.switch_source_input() instead. Make the switch. But switch_source_input() only showed up in 1.7, so we have to do ugly version checks to keep things working in older versions.

2018-06-30Documentation/sphinx: allow "functions" with no parametersMike Rapoport1-3/+7
When kernel-doc:: specified in .rst document without explicit directives, it outputs both comment and DOC: sections. If a DOC: section was explicitly included in the same document it will be duplicated. For example, the output generated for Documentation/core-api/idr.rst [1] has "IDA description" in the "IDA usage" section and in the middle of the API reference. This patch enables using "functions" directive without parameters to output all the documentation excluding DOC: sections.
