* docs: rename Documentation/vm to Documentation/mmMike Rapoport2022-06-271-87/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | so it will be consistent with code mm directory and with Documentation/admin-guide/mm and won't be confused with virtual machines.

* docs: get rid of :c:type explicit declarations for structsMauro Carvalho Chehab2020-10-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The :c:type:`foo` only works properly with structs before Sphinx 3.x. On Sphinx 3.x, structs should now be declared using the .. c:struct, and referenced via :c:struct tag. As we now have the automarkup.py macro, that automatically convert: struct foo into cross-references, let's get rid of that, solving several warnings when building docs with Sphinx 3.x.

* Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: documentationAlexander A. Klimov2020-06-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
