Merge tag 'docs-7.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/docs/linuxPull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "A slightly calmer cycle for docs this time around, though there is still a fair amount going on, including: - Some signs of life on the long-moribund Japanese translation - Documentation on policies around the use of generative tools for patch submissions, and a separate document intended for consumption by generative tools - The completion of the move of the documentation tools to tools/docs. For now we're leaving a /scripts/kernel-doc symlink behind to avoid breaking scripts - Ongoing build-system work includes the incorporation of documentation in Python code, better support for documenting variables, and lots of improvements and fixes - Automatic linking of man-page references -- cat(1), for example -- to the online pages in the HTML build ...and the usual array of typo fixes and such"* tag 'docs-7.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/docs/linux: (107 commits) doc: development-process: add notice on testing tools: sphinx-build-wrapper: improve its help message docs: sphinx-build-wrapper: allow -v override -q docs: kdoc: Fix pdfdocs build for tools docs: ja_JP: process: translate 'Obtain a current source tree' docs: fix 're-use' -> 'reuse' in documentation docs: ioctl-number: fix a typo in ioctl-number.rst docs: filesystems: ensure proc pid substitutable is complete docs: automarkup.py: Skip common English words as C identifiers Documentation: use a source-read extension for the index link boilerplate docs: parse_features: make documentation more consistent docs: add parse_features module documentation docs: jobserver: do some documentation improvements docs: add jobserver module documentation docs: kabi: helpers: add documentation for each "enum" value docs: kabi: helpers: add helper for debug bits 7 and 8 docs: kabi: system_symbols: end docstring phrases with a dot docs: python: abi_regex: do some improvements at documentation docs: python: abi_parser: do some improvements at documentation docs: add kabi modules documentation ...

Wed, 03 Dec 2025 20:34:28 +0100

Merge tag 'docs-6.19' of git://git.lwn.net/linuxPull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "This has been another busy cycle for documentation, with a lot of build-system thrashing. That work should slow down from here on out. - The various scripts and tools for documentation were spread out in several directories; now they are (almost) all coalesced under tools/docs/. The holdout is the kernel-doc script, which cannot be easily moved without some further thought. - As the amount of Python code increases, we are accumulating modules that are imported by multiple programs. These modules have been pulled together under tools/lib/python/ -- at least, for documentation-related programs. There is other Python code in the tree that might eventually want to move toward this organization. - The Perl kernel-doc.pl script has been removed. It is no longer used by default, and nobody has missed it, least of all anybody who actually had to look at it. - The docs build was controlled by a complex mess of makefilese that few dared to touch. Mauro has moved that logic into a new program (tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper) that, with any luck at all, will be far easier to understand and maintain. - The get_feat.pl program, used to access information under Documentation/features/, has been rewritten in Python, bringing an end to the use of Perl in the docs subsystem. - The top-level README file has been reorganized into a more reader-friendly presentation. - A lot of Chinese translation additions - Typo fixes and documentation updates as usual"* tag 'docs-6.19' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (164 commits) docs: makefile: move rustdoc check to the build wrapper README: restructure with role-based documentation and guidelines docs: kdoc: various fixes for grammar, spelling, punctuation docs: kdoc_parser: use '@' for Excess enum value docs: submitting-patches: Clarify that removal of Acks needs explanation too docs: kdoc_parser: add data/function attributes to ignore docs: MAINTAINERS: update Mauro's files/paths docs/zh_CN: Add wd719x.rst translation docs/zh_CN: Add libsas.rst translation get_feat.pl: remove it, as it got replaced by get_feat.py Documentation/sphinx/kernel_feat.py: use class directly tools/docs/get_feat.py: convert get_feat.pl to Python Documentation/admin-guide: fix typo and comment in cscope example docs/zh_CN: Add data-integrity.rst translation docs/zh_CN: Add blk-mq.rst translation docs/zh_CN: Add block/index.rst translation docs/zh_CN: Update the Chinese translation of kbuild.rst docs: bring some order to our Python module hierarchy docs: Move the python libraries to tools/lib/python Documentation/kernel-parameters: Move the kernel build options ...

464257baf99200d1be1c053f15aa617056361e81 - docs: makefile: move rustdoc check to the build wrapper

Fri, 21 Nov 2025 12:05:28 +0100

docs: makefile: move rustdoc check to the build wrapperThe makefile logic to detect if rust is enabled is not workingthe way it was expected: instead of using the current setupfor CONFIG_RUST, it uses a cached version from a previous build.The root cause is that the current logic inside docs/Makefileuses a cached version of CONFIG_RUST, from the last time a nondocumentation target was executed. That's perfectly fine forSphinx build, as it doesn't need to read or depend on anyCONFIG_*.So, instead of relying at the cache, move the logic to thewrapper script and let it check the current content of .config,to verify if CONFIG_RUST was selected.Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet Message-ID: List of files: /linux/Documentation/Makefile

34a28245b6a5c4227b7122c0ff9b98d22b39f033 - Merge branch 'python-modules' into docs-mw

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 17:26:11 +0100

Merge branch 'python-modules' into docs-mwscripts/lib was always a bit of an awkward place for Python libraries; givethem a proper home under tools/lib/python. Put the modules fromtools/docs/lib there for good measure.The second patch ties them into a single package namespace. It would bemore aesthetically pleasing to add a kernel layer, so we could say: from kernel.kdoc import kdoc_parser...and have the kernel-specific stuff clearly marked, but that means addingan empty directory in the hierarchy, which isn't as pleasing.There are some other "Python library" directories hidden in the kerneltree; we may eventually want to encourage them to move as well.

docs: Move the python libraries to tools/lib/python"scripts/lib" was always a bit of an awkward place for Python modules. Wealready have tools/lib; create a tools/lib/python, move the librariesthere, and update the users accordingly.While at it, move the contents of tools/docs/lib. Rather than make anotherdirectory, just put these documentation-oriented modules under "kdoc".Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet Message-ID: <20251110220430.726665-2-corbet@lwn.net> List of files: /linux/Documentation/Makefile

Thu, 13 Nov 2025 12:00:32 +0100

docs: Makefile: update SPHINXDIRS documentationSince the beginning, SPHINXDIRS was meant to be used by anysubdirectory inside Documentation/ that contains a file namedindex.rst on it. The typical usecase for SPHINXDIRS is helpbuilding subsystem-specific documentation, without needing towait for the entire building (with can take 3 minutes withSphinx 8.x and above, and a lot more with older versions).Yet, the documentation for such feature was written back in2016, where almost all index.rst files were at the firstlevel (Documentation/*/index.rst).Update the documentation to reflect the way it works.Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet Message-ID: <683469813350214da122c258063dd71803ff700b.1763031632.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> List of files: /linux/Documentation/Makefile
