2024-03-03docs: drop the version constraints for sphinx and dependenciesLukas Bulwahn
As discussed (see Links), there is some inertia to move to the recent Sphinx versions for the doc build environment. As first step, drop the version constraints and the related comments. As sphinx depends on jinja2, jinja2 is pulled in automatically. So drop that. Then, the sphinx-pre-install script will fail though with: Can't get default sphinx version from ./Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt at ./scripts/sphinx-pre-install line 305. The script simply expects to parse a version constraint with Sphinx in the requirements.txt. That version is used in the script for suggesting the virtualenv directory name. To suggest a virtualenv directory name, when there is no version given in the requirements.txt, one could try to guess the version that would be downloaded with 'pip install -r Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt'. However, there seems no simple way to get that version without actually setting up the venv and running pip. So, instead, name the directory with the fixed name 'sphinx_latest'. Finally update the Sphinx build documentation to reflect this directory name change.

Akira Yokosawa reported [1] that the "translations" extension we added in commit 7418ec5b151f ("docs: translations: add translations links when they exist") broke the build on Sphinx versions v6.1.3 through 7.1.2 (possibly others) with the following error: Exception occurred: File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/sphinx/util/nodes.py", line 624, in _copy_except__document newnode = self.__class__(rawsource=self.rawsource, **self.attributes) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ TypeError: LanguagesNode.__init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'current_language' The full traceback has been saved in /tmp/sphinx-err-7xmwytuu.log, if you want to report the issue to the developers.

The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell. This is unfortunate and unnecessary. Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True). This also makes the code shorter. This is analogous to commit 3231dd586277 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.

The 'alabaster' theme dropped support for Sphinx < v3.4: 0.7.14 – 2024-01-08 * Dropped support for Python 3.8 and earlier. * Dropped support for Sphinx 3.3 and earlier. [...] (Source: https://alabaster.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changelog.html) This manifests as an error when running 'make htmldocs' in a virtualenv constructed from Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt: Sphinx version error: The alabaster extension used by this project needs at least Sphinx v3.4; it therefore cannot be built with this version. Raising the Sphinx version is not really a good option at this point, since 3.x through 6.x have horrible performance regressions (7.x still does, but not quite as bad). Instead, constrain the 'alabaster' package to versions that still support Sphinx 2.4.4.

2023-12-19docs: translations: add translations links when they existVegard Nossum
Add a new Sphinx extension that knows about the translations of kernel documentation and can insert links to the translations at the top of the document. It basically works like this: 1. Register a new node type, LanguagesNode. 2. Register a new transform, TranslationsTransform, that inserts a new LanguageNode at the top of every document. The LanguageNode contains "pending references" to translations of the document. The key here is that these are pending (i.e. unresolved) references that may or may not actually exist. 3. Register a 'doctree-resolved' event that iterates over all the LanguageNode nodes. Any unresolved references are filtered out; the list of resolved references is passed to the 'translations.html' template and rendered as an HTML node (if HTML output is selected). Testing: make htmldocs, make latexdocs with Sphinx v4.3.2 and Firefox. v2: - changed bar into a drop-down menu - fixed language labels - fixed hysteresis reported by Akira Yokosawa Cc: Federico Vaga <federico.vaga@vaga.pv.it> Cc: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@linux.intel.com> Cc: Akira Yokosawa <akiyks@gmail.com> Cc: Yanteng Si <siyanteng@loongson.cn> Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231215123701.2712807-1-vegard.nossum@oracle.com

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].

2022-03-28docs: kfigure.py: Don't warn of missing PDF converter in 'make htmldocs'Akira Yokosawa
SVG -> PDF conversion is not required in "make htmldocs". It is pointless to always warn of a missing converter. Demote the log message in setupTools() to verbose. For "make pdfdocs" (or "make latexdocs"), promote the dynamic message of "include SVG raw" to a warn. Expand the message and recommend installing Inkscape or ImageMagick.

2022-02-24docs: pdfdocs: Pull LaTeX preamble part out of conf.pyAkira Yokosawa
Quote from Jon's remark [1]: I do notice that Documentation/conf.py is getting large and unapproachable. At some future point, it might be nice to pull all of the latex stuff out into a separate file where it won't scare people who stumble into it by accident. Pull LaTeX preamble settings added since commit 3b4c963243b1 ("docs: conf.py: adjust the LaTeX document output") out into sphinx/kerneldoc-preamble.sty. It will be copied to the build directory by the added "latex_additional_files" setting in conf.py. As a bonus, LaTeX/TeX code can be maintained without escaping backslashes. To compensate the loss of change history in sphinx/kerneldoc-preamble.sty, here is a list of changes made in conf.py: - f7ebe6b76940 ("docs: Activate exCJK only in CJK chapters") - 0afd4df0d16a ("docs: pdfdocs: Prevent column squeezing by tabulary") - 659653c9e546 ("docs: pdfdocs: Refactor config for CJK document") - e291ff6f5a03 ("docs: pdfdocs: Add CJK-language-specific font settings") - 7eb368cc319b ("docs: pdfdocs: Choose Serif font as CJK mainfont if possible") - 35382965bdd2 ("docs: pdfdocs: Preserve inter-phrase space in Korean translations") - 77abc2c230b1 ("docs: pdfdocs: One-half spacing for CJK translations") - 788d28a25799 ("docs: pdfdocs: Permit AutoFakeSlant for CJK fonts") - 29ac9822358f ("docs: pdfdocs: Teach xeCJK about character classes of quotation marks") - 7c5c18bdb656 ("docs: pdfdocs: Fix typo in CJK-language specific font settings") - aa872e0647dc ("docs: pdfdocs: Adjust \headheight for fancyhdr") - 8716ef413aa5 ("docs: pdfdocs: Tweak width params of TOC") - 66939df53948 ("docs: pdfdocs: Switch default CJK font to KR variants") - 7b686a2ea1e4 ("docs: pdfdocs: Enable CJKspace in TOC for Korean titles") - 5d9158e3c762 ("docs/translations: Skip CJK contents if suitable fonts not found") - b774cc46313b ("docs: pdfdocs: Move CJK monospace font setting to main conf.py") [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/87zgmr66cn.fsf@meer.lwn.net/ Suggested-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Signed-off-by: Akira Yokosawa <akiyks@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/aaa9dca1-27c0-c414-77f3-c5587db0cc5b@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2022-02-09docs: sphinx/kfigure.py: Use inkscape(1) for SVG -> PDF conversionAkira Yokosawa
Using convert(1) of ImageMagick for SVG -> PDF conversion results in PDFs containing raster (bitmap) images which sometimes look blurry. Ideally speaking, SVG to PDF conversion should retain vector graphics in SVG. rsvg-convert(1) can do such conversions with regard to SVG files generated by dot(1). Unfortunately, rsvg-convert(1) does not cover some of SVG features specific to Inkscape. inkscape(1) of Inkscape naturally covers such SVG features. So add a route in svg2pdf() so that inkscape(1) is used when it is available. Note: After this change, if you have Inkscape installed, ImageMagick nor librsvg are not required.

2022-02-09docs: sphinx/kfigure.py: Add check of 'dot -Tpdf'Akira Yokosawa

2022-02-09docs: sphinx/kfigure.py: Use rsvg-convert(1) for DOT -> PDF conversionAkira Yokosawa
On openSUSE, dot(1) command does not support direct PDF output. On other distros, generated PDF images have unnecessarily wide margins, especially for small graphs. By using dot(1) for DOT -> SVG, then rsvg-convert(1) for SVG -> PDF, more optimal PDF images can be obtained, with the bonus of improved portability across various distros. Add rules in kfigure.py so that the above mentioned route is taken when rsvg-convert(1) is available. Note that rsvg-convert(1) is recommended by sphinx_pre_install. So it is most likely that existing systems for building pdfdocs have rsvg-convert(1) installed. Note: SVG features supported by rsvg-convert(1) vary depending on its version and distro config. For example, the one found on Ubuntu Bionic (version 2.40.20) does poor job in rendering some of SVG files drawn by Inkscape. SVG files generated by dot(1) are converted nicely even with such old versions of rsvg-convert. So this change does not affect the quality of such figures in any way.

2022-01-07docs: automarkup.py: Fix invalid HTML link output and broken URI fragmentsJames Clark
Since commit d18b01789ae5 ("docs: Add automatic cross-reference for documentation pages"), references that were already explicitly defined with "ref:" and referred to other pages with a path have been doubled. This is reported as the following error by Firefox: Start tag "a" seen but an element of the same type was already open. End tag "a" violates nesting rules. As well as the invalid HTML, this also obscures the URI fragment links to subsections because the second link overrides the first. For example on the page admin-guide/hw-vuln/mds.html the last link should be to the "Default Mitigations" subsection using a # URI fragment: admin-guide/hw-vuln/l1tf.html#default-mitigations But it is obsured by a second link to the whole page: admin-guide/hw-vuln/l1tf.html The full HTML with the double <a> tags looks like this: <a class="reference internal" href="l1tf.html#default-mitigations"> <span class="std std-ref"> <a class="reference internal" href="l1tf.html"> <span class="doc">L1TF - L1 Terminal Fault</span> </a> </span> </a> After this commit, there is only a single link: <a class="reference internal" href="l1tf.html#default-mitigations"> <span class="std std-ref">Documentation/admin-guide/hw-vuln//l1tf.rst</span> </a> Now that the second link is removed, the browser correctly jumps to the default-mitigations subsection when clicking the link. The fix is to check that nodes in the document to be modified are not already references. A reference is counted as any text that is a descendant of a reference type node. Only plain text should be converted to new references, otherwise the doubling occurs. Testing ======= * Test that the build stdout is the same (ignoring ordering), and that no new warnings are printed. * Diff all .html files and check that the only modifications occur to the bad double links. * The auto linking of bare references to pages without "ref:" is still working.

2021-02-04docs: Enable usage of relative paths to docs on automarkupNícolas F. R. A. Prado
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.
