Merge branch 'mauro-pdf' into docs-next
Mauro says:
This series address a series of errors during PDF generation from
media documentation.
The first patch fixes the late redefinition of a LaTeX command at the
Sphinx LaTeX style that causes build to break when some cross-references
are used.
The next two patches fix PDF output issues with subdev-formats.rst.
The next 3 patches fix image includes and their output for PDF.
It is aligned with Linus request of not having binary-generated images
from their SVG source codes.
I still intend to move the remaing PNG images to vectorial ones (SVG),
as image scale works better, but this will require some additional work.
When done, I'll submit as a separate patch series.
It should also be noticed that the last patch violates the output dir,
when make is used with "O=some_dir", as Sphinx doesn't accept
image files outside the source directory. We'll likely need some Sphinx
extension in order to fix it, but at least with this series (plus Jani Nikola's
PDF fix series), the PDF output should work fine again.
[jc: added a commit fixing up a "make cleandocs" warning]
The PDF files that contain media images were actually generated
offline from their SVG or PNG source files.
Sphinx can handle PNG sources automatially. So, let's just
drop their PDF counterparts.
For SVG, however, Sphinx doesn't produce the right tags to
use the TexLive SVG support. Also, the SVG support is done via
shell execution, with is not nice.
So, while we don't have any support for SVG inside Sphinx
core or as an extension, move the logic to build them to Makefile,
producing the PDF images on runtime.
NOTE: due to the way Sphinx works, the PDF images should be
generated inside the Kernel source tree, as otherwise Sphinx
won't find it, not obeying what's specified by "O=" makefile
parameter.

docs-rst: fix LaTeX \DURole renewcommand with Sphinx 1.3+
PDF build on Kernel 4.9-rc? returns an error with Sphinx 1.3.x
and Sphinx 1.4.x, when trying to solve some cross-references.
The solution is to redefine the \DURole macro.
However, this is redefined too late. Move such redefinition to
LaTeX preamble and bind it to just the Sphinx versions where the
error is known to be present.
Tested by building the documentation on interactive mode:

Documentation/sphinx: set literal block highlight language to none
Set the default highlight language to "none", i.e. do not try to guess
the language and do automatic syntax highlighting on literal blocks.
Eyeballing around the generated documentation, we don't seem to actually
have a lot of literal blocks that would benefit from syntax
highlighting. The C code blocks we do have are typically very short, and
most of the literal blocks are things that shouldn't be highlighted (or,
do not have a pygments lexer). This seems to be true for literal blocks
both in the rst source files and in source code comments.
Not highlighting code is never wrong, but guessing the language wrong
almost invariably leads to silly or confusing highlighting.
At the time of writing, admin-guide/oops-tracing.rst and
admin-guide/ramoops.rst contain good examples of 1) a small C code
snippet not highlighted, 2) a hex dump highligted as who knows what, 3)
device tree block highlighted as C or maybe Python, 4) a terminal
interaction highlighted as code in some language, and finally, 5) some C
code snippets correctly identified as C. I think we're better off
disabling language guessing, and going by explicitly identified
languages for longer code blocks.
It is still possible to enable highlighting on an rst source file basis
using the highlight directive:
.. higlight:: language
and on a literal block basis using the code-block directive:
.. code-block:: language

better than an unordered blob of files. This is a first step in that
direction. The TOC has been split up and annotated, the guides have been

One consequence of splitting up the TOC is that we don't really want to use
:numbered: anymore, since the count resets every time and there doesn't
seem to be a way to change that. Eventually we probably want to group the
documents into sub-books, at which point we can go back to a single TOC,

This patch series continues the efforts of converting the Linux Kernel

README: add a new README file, pointing to the Documentation/
As we moved the real README file to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst,
let's add a replacement, pointing to it, and giving the main directions
about documentation.
In the future, perhaps it would be worth to move the contents
of Documentation/00-Index into this README.
Those files got moved to Documentation/process, but as they're very
well known files, add pointers to their new locations.
PS.: I opted to not merge this patch with the previous one
in order to make the diff of the previous one more consistent,
as it will show only renames.
Adjust the readme file for it to use the ReST markup:
- add chapter/section markups;
- use ``foo`` for commands;
- use :: for verbatim and script blocks;
- replace unsupported markup _foo_ by **foo**;
- add cross-references to other ReST files;
- use lower case on the section titles, to match other ReST files.
- add a title to the document;
- use :: before verbatim blocks;
- add blank lines where required;
- use protocol for URL references;
- use a verbatim block for the bugs template;
- add cross references to SecurityBugs.
