2021-10-12docs: pdfdocs: Adjust \headheight for fancyhdrAkira Yokosawa1-0/+3
Fancyhdr prior to v4.0 outputs a message per document as follows: Package Fancyhdr Warning: \headheight is too small (12.0pt): Make it at least 13.59999pt. We now make it that large for the rest of the document. This may cause the page layout to be inconsistent, however. Fancyhdr v4.0 complains (once a page!) as follows: Package fancyhdr Warning: \headheight is too small (12.0pt): (fancyhdr) Make it at least 13.59999pt, for example: (fancyhdr) \setlength{\headheight}{13.59999pt}. (fancyhdr) You might also make \topmargin smaller to compensate: (fancyhdr) \addtolength{\topmargin}{-1.59999pt}. Related item in fancyhdr v4.0 announcement on 2021-01-04 [1]: Backward incompatible changes: - Eliminate adjustments of \headheight or \footskip, when the header or footer is too high.

2021-08-12docs: pdfdocs: One-half spacing for CJK translationsAkira Yokosawa1-2/+10
CJK documents are much easier to read with a wider baseline stretch. Applying onehalfspacing option of "setspace" package looks reasonable. Note: \usepackage{setspace} needs to be before that of hyperref in the preamble. The 'extrapackages' key (available since Sphinx 2.3) is for this purpose. For systems with Sphinx < 2.3, dummy commands of \onehalfspacing and \singlespacing are provided instead. One-half spacing is not effective in LaTeX sources generated by such revisions of Sphinx.

2021-08-12docs: pdfdocs: Add CJK-language-specific font settingsAkira Yokosawa1-1/+50
zh_TW, ko_KR, and ja_JP translations have their preferred glyph sets different from that of zh_CN. To switch CJK font in the middle of the translations, introduce custom LaTeX macros listed below: \kerneldocBeginSC \kerneldocEndSC \kerneldocBeginTC \kerneldocEndTC \kerneldocBeginKR \kerneldocEndKR \kerneldocBeginJP \kerneldocEndJP , and embed a pair of macros in each language's index.rst. NOTE 1: Update of zh_TW/index.rst is deferred to a follow-up change. NOTE 2: Custom macros added here do not imply \kerneldocCJK(on|off). This is intentional. For example, \kerneldocCJKoff needs to be at the top of Italian translations' index.rst for the footer of final zh_TW page to be properly typeset.

Setting a reasonable width to \tymin prevents column squeezing by tabulary. Width of 20em works well in almost all the tables still in the ascii-art format. Excerpt from tabulary package documentation at [1]: To stop very narrow columns being too 'squeezed' by this process any columns that are narrower than \tymin are set to their natural width.

2021-05-27docs: Activate exCJK only in CJK chaptersAkira Yokosawa1-0/+13
Activating xeCJK in English and Italian-translation documents results in sub-optimal typesetting with wide-looking apostrophes and quotation marks. The xeCJK package provides macros for enabling and disabling its effect in the middle of a document, namely \makexeCJKactive and \makexeCJKinactive. So the goal of this change is to activate xeCJK in the relevant chapters in translations. To do this: o Define custom macros in the preamble depending on the availability of the "Noto Sans CJK" font so that those macros can be used regardless of the use of xeCJK package. o Patch \sphinxtableofcontents so that xeCJK is inactivated after table of contents. o Embed those custom macros in each language's index.rst file as a ".. raw:: latex" construct. Note: A CJK chapter needs \kerneldocCJKon in front of its chapter heading, while a non-CJK chapter should have \kerneldocCJKoff below its chapter heading. This is to make sure the CJK font is available to CJK chapter's heading and ending page's footer. Tested against Sphinx versions 2.4.4 and 4.0.2.

2020-03-20docs: conf.py: avoid thousands of duplicate label warning on SphinxMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+4
The autosectionlabel extension is nice, as it allows to refer to a section by its name without requiring any extra tag to create a reference name. However, on its default, it has two serious problems: 1) the namespace is global. So, two files with different "introduction" section would create a label with the same name. This is easily solvable by forcing the extension to prepend the file name with: autosectionlabel_prefix_document = True 2) It doesn't work hierarchically. So, if there are two level 1 sessions (let's say, one labeled "open" and another one "ioctl") and both have a level 2 "synopsis" label, both section 2 will have the same identical name. Currently, there's no way to tell Sphinx to create an hierarchical reference like: open / synopsis ioctl / synopsis This causes around 800 warnings. So, the fix should be to not let autosectionlabel to produce references for anything that it is not at a chapter level within any doc, with: autosectionlabel_maxdepth = 2 Fixes: 58ad30cf91f0 ("docs: fix reference to core-api/namespaces.rst") Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/74f4d8d91c648d7101c45b4b99cc93532f4dadc6.1584716446.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2019-10-02doc-rst: Programmatically render MAINTAINERS into ReSTKees Cook1-1/+2
In order to have the MAINTAINERS file visible in the rendered ReST output, this makes some small changes to the existing MAINTAINERS file to allow for better machine processing, and adds a new Sphinx directive "maintainers-include" to perform the rendering. Features include: - Per-subsystem reference links: subsystem maintainer entries can be trivially linked to both internally and external. For example: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainers.html#secure-computing - Internally referenced .rst files are linked so they can be followed when browsing the resulting rendering. This allows, for example, the future addition of maintainer profiles to be automatically linked. - Field name expansion: instead of the short fields (e.g. "M", "F", "K"), use the indicated inline "full names" for the fields (which are marked with "*"s in MAINTAINERS) so that a rendered subsystem entry is more human readable. Email lists are additionally comma-separated.

2017-12-11docs: Remove "could not extract kernel version" warningJonathan Corbet1-1/+0
This warning will happen for every normal kernel docs build and doesn't carry any useful information. Should anybody actually depend on this "version" variable (which isn't clear to me), the "unknown version" value will be clue enough. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2017-09-08docs-rst: don't require adjustbox anymoreMauro Carvalho Chehab1-3/+0
Only the media PDF book was requiring adjustbox, in order to scale big tables. That worked pretty good with Sphinx versions 1.4 and 1.5, but Spinx 1.6 changed the way tables are produced, by introducing some weird macros before tabulary. That causes adjustbox to fail. So, it can't be used anymore, and its usage was removed from the media book. So, let's remove it from conf.py and sphinx-pre-install.

2017-09-08docs-rst: conf.py: only setup notice box colors if Sphinx < 1.6Mauro Carvalho Chehab1-19/+43
Sphinx 1.5 added a new way to change backward colors for note boxes, but kept backward compatibility with 1.4. On Sphinx 1.6, the old way stopped working, in favor of a new less hackish way. Unfortunately, this is currently too buggy to be used, and the old way doesn't work anymore. So, we have no option but to stick with boring notice boxes. One example of such bug is the notice that it is inside struct v4l2_plane, at the "bytesused" field. At least, add a notice about how to use, as maybe some day the bug will vanish.

2017-08-26docs-rst: fix verbatim font size on tablesMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
On Sphinx 1.6, fancy boxes are used for verbatim. The sphinx.sty sets verbatim font is always \small. That causes a problem inside tables that use smaller fonts, as it can be too big for the box.

2017-08-24docs-rst: pdf: use same vertical margin on all Sphinx versionsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
Currently, on Sphinx up to version 1.4, pdf output uses a vertical margin of 1 inch. For upper versions, it uses a margin of 0.5 inches. That causes both page headers and footers to be very close to the margin of the sheet. Not all printers support writing like that. Also, there's no reason why the layout for newer versions would be different than for previous ones. So, standardize it, by always setting to 1 inch.

2017-06-23Docs: Fix breakage with Sphinx 1.5 and upperMauro Carvalho Chehab1-2/+6
Commit 85c21e5c3ee7 (docs-rst: better adjust margins and font size) added a \usepackage{geometry} that conflicts with another inclusion deep within the dependencies with newer versions of Sphinx, causing the the PDF build to fail with a "conflicting parameters" error. Detect the Sphinx version, using sphinxsetup for Sphinx versions 1.5 and upper.
