docs: Use HTML comments for the kernel-toc SPDX line

2023-02-16T23:06:44Z

This line was initially placed in {# jinja2 comments #}, but that led to an "invalid token" complaint from spdxcheck.py. Rather than fix the script for a usage we'll likely never see anywhere else, just switch to an HTML comment, which spdxcheck.py thinks is fine. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

docs: Add more information to the HTML sidebar

2023-02-08T20:28:27Z

Add a new sidebar template that creates a more RTD-like "fisheye" view of the current place in the document hierarchy. It is far from ideal, but some readers may find it better for navigating through the documentation as a whole. Add some CSS trickery as well to make the table of contents less intrusive when viewing the pages on a small screen. Reviewed-by: Akira Yokosawa Reviewed-by: David Gow

docs: Fix the docs build with Sphinx 6.0

2023-01-06T20:04:00Z

Sphinx 6.0 removed the execfile_() function, which we use as part of the configuration process. They *did* warn us... Just open-code the functionality as is done in Sphinx itself. Tested (using SPHINX_CONF, since this code is only executed with an alternative config file) on various Sphinx versions from 2.5 through 6.0.

docs: sphinx-pre-install: don't require the RTD theme

2022-10-13T17:14:43Z

We don't default to the RTD theme anymore, so sphinx-pre-install need not insist on installing it. Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

docs: kerneldoc-preamble: Test xeCJK.sty before loading

2022-08-18T17:27:55Z

On distros whose texlive packaging is fine-grained, texlive-xecjk can be installed/removed independently of other texlive packages. Conditionally loading xeCJK depending only on the existence of the "Noto Sans CJK SC" font might end up in xelatex error of "xeCJK.sty not found!". Improve the situation by testing existence of xeCJK.sty before loading it. This is useful on RHEL 9 and its clone distros where texlive-xecjk doesn't work at the moment due to a missing dependency [1]. "make pdfdocs" for non-CJK contents should work after removing texlive-xecjk.

docs: automarkup: do not look up symbols twice

2022-07-07T18:57:55Z

The automarkup code tries to look up symbols once as a function, and once as a macro. The Sphinx C domain code, though, totally ignores that distinction and will return the same results either way. So just look things up once and be done with it; the resulting output does not change, but htmldocs build time drops by about 5%.

docs: automarkup: track failed cross-reference attempts

2022-07-07T18:57:48Z

The automarkup code tries to create a lot of cross-references that don't exist. Cross-reference lookups are expensive, especially in later versions of Sphinx, so there is value in avoiding unnecessary ones. Remember attempts that failed and do not retry them. This improves the htmldocs build time by 5-10% depending on the phase of the moon and other factors.

docs: pdfdocs: Add space for chapter counts >= 100 in TOC

2022-05-17T19:41:26Z

It turns out that networking.pdf has exceeded 100 chapters and titles of chapters >= 100 collide with their counts in its table of contents (TOC). Increase relevant params by 0.6em in the preamble to avoid such ugly collisions. While at it, fix a typo in comment (subsection).

docs: sphinx/requirements: Limit jinja2<3.1

2022-03-30T19:44:54Z

jinja2 release 3.1.0 (March 24, 2022) broke Sphinx<4.0. This looks like the result of deprecating Python 3.6. It has been tested against Sphinx 4.3.0 and later. Setting an upper limit of <3.1 to junja2 can unbreak Sphinx<4.0 including Sphinx 2.4.4.

scripts/kernel-doc: change the line number meta info

2022-03-28T19:53:46Z

In order to make it more standard and ReST compatible, change the meta-tag used with --enable-lineno from: #define LINENO to .. LINENO In practice, no functional changes.
