2019-07-15docs: m68k: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rstMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
Convert the m68k kernel-options.txt file to ReST. The conversion is trivial, as the document is already on a format close enough to ReST. Just some small adjustments were needed in order to make it both good for being parsed while keeping it on a good txt shape. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <[email protected]>
2019-06-28docs: format kernel-parameters -- as codeStephen Kitt1-2/+2
The current ReStructuredText formatting results in "--", used to indicate the end of the kernel command-line parameters, appearing as an en-dash instead of two hyphens; this patch formats them as code, "``--``", as done elsewhere in the documentation.

2019-06-08docs: fix broken documentation linksMauro Carvalho Chehab1-3/+3
Mostly due to x86 and acpi conversion, several documentation links are still pointing to the old file. Fix them.

2018-03-16arch: remove blackfin portArnd Bergmann1-1/+0
The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up. Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant, and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when doing cross-architecture changes.

Command line options allow us to ignore features that we don't want. Also we can re-enable options that have been disabled on a platform (so long as the underlying h/w actually supports the option).

Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet: "A reasonably busy cycle for documentation this time around. There is a new guide for user-space API documents, rather sparsely populated at the moment, but it's a start. Markus improved the infrastructure for converting diagrams. Mauro has converted much of the USB documentation over to RST. Plus the usual set of fixes, improvements, and tweaks. There's a bit more than the usual amount of reaching out of Documentation/ to fix comments elsewhere in the tree; I have acks for those where I could get them" * tag 'docs-4.12' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (74 commits) docs: Fix a couple typos docs: Fix a spelling error in vfio-mediated-device.txt docs: Fix a spelling error in ioctl-number.txt MAINTAINERS: update file entry for HSI subsystem Documentation: allow installing man pages to a user defined directory Doc/PM: Sync with intel_powerclamp code behavior zr364xx.rst: usb/devices is now at /sys/kernel/debug/ usb.rst: move documentation from proc_usb_info.txt to USB ReST book convert philips.txt to ReST and add to media docs docs-rst: usb: update old usbfs-related documentation arm: Documentation: update a path name docs: process/4.Coding.rst: Fix a couple of document refs docs-rst: fix usb cross-references usb: gadget.h: be consistent at kernel doc macros usb: composite.h: fix two warnings when building docs usb: get rid of some ReST doc build errors usb.rst: get rid of some Sphinx errors usb/URB.txt: convert to ReST and update it usb/persist.txt: convert to ReST and add to driver-api book usb/hotplug.txt: convert to ReST and add to driver-api book ...

2017-04-20docs: process/4.Coding.rst: Fix a couple of document refsAndrew Clayton1-0/+2
In Documentation/process/4.Coding.rst there were a couple of paragraphs that spilled over the 80 character line length. This was likely caused when the document was converted to reStructuredText. Re-flow the paragraphs and make the document references proper reStructuredText :ref: links. This also adds the appropriate reStructuredText file heading to kernel-parameters.rst as referenced by the kernel-parameters link in this patch.

2016-10-27docs: Clean up and organize the admin guide a bitJonathan Corbet1-2/+2
The admin guide is a good start, but it's time to turn it into something 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 reordered, and minor tweaks have been applied to a few of them. 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, but it's probably early to do that.
