2016-09-20docs-rst: create a book for the development processMauro Carvalho Chehab
Now that the files at Documentation/development-process/ were converted to ReST, make create a book at Sphinx. As we'll have other books related to the development process, we'll add it as a sub-book.

2016-08-22docs: split up the driver bookJonathan Corbet
We don't need to keep it as a single large file anymore; split it up so that it is easier to manage and the individual sections can be read directly as plain files. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2016-08-22Docs: sphinxify device-drivers.tmplJonathan Corbet

2016-08-19Merge branch 'dev-tools' into doc/4.9Jonathan Corbet
Coalesce development-tool documents into a single directory and sphinxify them.
2016-08-18docs: create a new dev-tools directoryJonathan Corbet
This directory will be a collecting point for documentation oriented around development tools. As a step toward ordering Documentation/ it's a small one, but we have to start somewhere... Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2016-07-18[media] doc-rst: better name the media booksMauro Carvalho Chehab
The titles at the media books were misleading, and some books were not numbered. Rename the kAPI book to better reflect its contents, be more consistent on the initial rst file for each book and better name them. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-17doc-rst: add v4l-drivers to index fileMauro Carvalho Chehab

2016-07-17[media] doc-rst: Convert media API to rstMauro Carvalho Chehab
Move the contents of the media section at DocBooks/DocBook/device-drivers.tmpl to a new ReST book. For now, the contents is kept as-is. Next patches will fix the warnings and add cross-references that were removed due to the conversion. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
2016-07-08doc_rst: rename the media Sphinx suff to Documentation/mediaMauro Carvalho Chehab
The name of the subsystem is "media", and not "linux_tv". Also, as we plan to add other stuff there in the future, let's rename also the media uAPI book to media_uapi, to make it clearer. No functional changes. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

2016-06-24Documentation: add meta-documentation for Sphinx and kernel-docJani Nikula
Describe Sphinx, reStructuredText, the kernel-doc extension, the kernel-doc structured documentation comments, etc. The kernel-doc parts are based on kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt, by Tim <twaugh@redhat.com>.

The modindex is for python modules. Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com>
2016-06-21Documentation/gpu: add new gpu.rst converted from DocBook gpu.tmplJani Nikula
This is the first step towards converting the DocBook gpu.tmpl to Sphinx and reStructuredText, the new kernel documentation tool and markup. Use Jon's "cheesy conversion script" in Documentation/sphinx/tmplcvt to do the rough conversion. Do the manual edits in follow-up patches. Add a new Documentation/gpu directories for the graphics related documentation. (Hooray, now we can have directories based on topics rather than tools under Documentation.) We also won't remove the DocBook gpu.tmpl yet so it's easier to build both and compare the results for parity.

2016-05-30Documentation/sphinx: add basic working Sphinx configuration and buildJani Nikula
Add basic configuration and makefile to build documentation from any .rst files under Documentation using Sphinx. For starters, there's just the placeholder index.rst. At the top level Makefile, hook Sphinx documentation targets alongside (but independent of) the DocBook toolchain, having both be run on the various 'make *docs' targets. All Sphinx processing is placed into Documentation/Makefile.sphinx. Both that and the Documentation/DocBook/Makefile are now expected to handle all the documentation targets, explicitly ignoring them if they're not relevant for that particular toolchain. The changes to the existing DocBook Makefile are kept minimal. There is graceful handling of missing Sphinx and rst2pdf (which is needed for pdf output) by checking for the tool and python module, respectively, with informative messages to the user. If the Read the Docs theme (sphinx_rtd_theme) is available, use it, but otherwise gracefully fall back to the Sphinx default theme, with an informative message to the user, and slightly less pretty HTML output. Sphinx can now handle htmldocs, pdfdocs (if rst2pdf is available), epubdocs and xmldocs targets. The output documents are written into per output type subdirectories under Documentation/output. Finally, you can pass options to sphinx-build using the SPHINXBUILD make variable. For example, 'make SPHINXOPTS=-v htmldocs' for more verbose output from Sphinx. This is based on the original work by Jonathan Corbet, but he probably wouldn't recognize this as his own anymore. Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com>
