* kernel-doc: rename the kernel-doc directive 'functions' to 'identifiers'Changbin Du2019-11-071-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | The 'functions' directive is not only for functions, but also works for structs/unions. So the name is misleading. This patch renames it to 'identifiers', which specific the functions/types to be included in documentation. We keep the old name as an alias of the new one before all documentation are updated.

* doc: Cope with the deprecation of AutoReporterJonathan Corbet2019-05-231-8/+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.

* doc: Cope with Sphinx logging deprecationsJonathan Corbet2019-05-231-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent versions of sphinx will emit messages like: Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py:103: RemovedInSphinx20Warning: app.warning() is now deprecated. Use sphinx.util.logging instead. Switch to sphinx.util.logging to make this unsightly message go away. Alas, that interface was only added in version 1.6, so we have to add a version check to keep things working with older sphinxes.

* Documentation/sphinx: allow "functions" with no parametersMike Rapoport2018-06-301-3/+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.

* Documentation/sphinx: Fix Directive import errorMatthew Wilcox2018-03-091-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sphinx 1.7 removed sphinx.util.compat.Directive so people who have upgraded cannot build the documentation. Switch to docutils.parsers.rst.Directive which has been available since docutils 0.5 released in 2009.

* Documentation/sphinx: fix kernel-doc decode for non-utf-8 localeJani Nikula2017-08-311-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On python3, Popen() universal_newlines=True converts the subprocess stdout to unicode text using a codec based on user preferences. Given LANG indicating ascii and utf-8 stdout from the subprocess, you'd get: WARNING: kernel-doc '../scripts/kernel-doc -rst -enable-lineno ../drivers/media/dvb-core/demux.h' processing failed with: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 6368: ordinal not in range(128) Fix this by dropping universal_newlines=True and replacing the implicit LANG specific decode with an explicit utf-8 decode. This also gets rid of the annoying conditional code for python 2 vs. 3.

Python module names should not have hyphens per [PEP 8]. Drop the hyphen from kernel-doc.py. The extension directive remains unchanged.
