As discussed (see Links), there is some inertia to move to the recent
Sphinx versions for the doc build environment.
As first step, drop the version constraints and the related comments. As
sphinx depends on jinja2, jinja2 is pulled in automatically. So drop that.
Then, the sphinx-pre-install script will fail though with:
Can't get default sphinx version from ./Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt at ./scripts/sphinx-pre-install line 305.
The script simply expects to parse a version constraint with Sphinx in the
requirements.txt. That version is used in the script for suggesting the
virtualenv directory name.
To suggest a virtualenv directory name, when there is no version given in
the requirements.txt, one could try to guess the version that would be
downloaded with 'pip install -r Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt'.
However, there seems no simple way to get that version without actually
setting up the venv and running pip. So, instead, name the directory with
the fixed name 'sphinx_latest'.
Finally update the Sphinx build documentation to reflect this directory
name change.

If the directory passed to the '.. kernel-feat::' directive does not
exist or the get_feat.pl script does not find any files to extract
features from, Sphinx will report the following error:
Sphinx parallel build error:
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'fname' referenced before assignment
make[2]: *** [Documentation/Makefile:102: htmldocs] Error 2
This is due to how I changed the script in c48a7c44a1 ("docs:

filename passed along to self.nestedParse() in this case was weirdly
just the whole get_feat.pl invocation.
We can fix it by doing what kernel_abi.py does -- just pass

Akira Yokosawa reported [1] that the "translations" extension we added in
commit 7418ec5b15 ("docs: translations: add translations links when they
exist") broke the build on Sphinx versions v6.1.3 through 7.1.2 (possibly
others) with the following error:
Exception occurred:
File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/sphinx/util/nodes.py", line 624, in _copy_except__document
newnode = self.__class__(rawsource=self.rawsource, **self.attributes)

TypeError: LanguagesNode.__init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'current_language'
The full traceback has been saved in /tmp/sphinx-err-7xmwytuu.log, if you want to report the issue to the developers.
Solve this problem by making 'current_language' a true element attribute
of the LanguagesNode element, which is probably the more correct way to do
it anyway.

The 'alabaster' theme dropped support for Sphinx < v3.4:

* Dropped support for Python 3.8 and earlier.
* Dropped support for Sphinx 3.3 and earlier.

The alabaster extension used by this project needs at least Sphinx v3.4; it therefore cannot be built with this version.
Raising the Sphinx version is not really a good option at this point,
since 3.x through 6.x have horrible performance regressions (7.x still
does, but not quite as bad).
Instead, constrain the 'alabaster' package to versions that still support
Sphinx 2.4.4.

Add a new Sphinx extension that knows about the translations of kernel
documentation and can insert links to the translations at the top of
the document.
It basically works like this:
1. Register a new node type, LanguagesNode.
2. Register a new transform, TranslationsTransform, that inserts a new
LanguageNode at the top of every document. The LanguageNode contains
"pending references" to translations of the document. The key here
is that these are pending (i.e. unresolved) references that may or
may not actually exist.
3. Register a 'doctree-resolved' event that iterates over all the
LanguageNode nodes. Any unresolved references are filtered out; the
list of resolved references is passed to the 'translations.html'
template and rendered as an HTML node (if HTML output is selected).
Testing: make htmldocs, make latexdocs with Sphinx v4.3.2 and Firefox.
v2:
- changed bar into a drop-down menu
- fixed language labels
- fixed hysteresis reported by Akira Yokosawa

but htmldocs build time drops by about 5%.

The automarkup code tries to create a lot of cross-references that don't
exist. Cross-reference lookups are expensive, especially in later versions

attempts that failed and do not retry them.

Quote from Jon's remark [1]:
I do notice that Documentation/conf.py is getting large and
unapproachable. At some future point, it might be nice to pull
all of the latex stuff out into a separate file where it won't
scare people who stumble into it by accident.
Pull LaTeX preamble settings added since commit 3b4c963243 ("docs:
conf.py: adjust the LaTeX document output") out into
sphinx/kerneldoc-preamble.sty.
It will be copied to the build directory by the added
"latex_additional_files" setting in conf.py.
As a bonus, LaTeX/TeX code can be maintained without escaping backslashes.
To compensate the loss of change history in sphinx/kerneldoc-preamble.sty,
here is a list of changes made in conf.py:
- f7ebe6b769 ("docs: Activate exCJK only in CJK chapters")
- 0afd4df0d1 ("docs: pdfdocs: Prevent column squeezing by tabulary")

Depending on its version, distro config, and system-setup type,
inkscape(1) emits various warning messages which are harmless in
command-line uses.
List of such warning messages (incomplete, long ones wrapped):
- Gtk-Message: hh:mm:ss.nnn: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
- Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
- Failed to get connection
- ** (inkscape:xxx): CRITICAL **: hh:mm:ss.nnn: dbus_g_proxy_new_for_name:
assertion 'connection != NULL' failed
- ** (inkscape:xxx): CRITICAL **: hh:mm:ss.nnn: dbus_g_proxy_call:
assertion 'DBUS_IS_G_PROXY (proxy)' failed
- ** (inkscape:xxx): CRITICAL **: hh:mm:ss.nnn: dbus_g_connection_register_g_object:
assertion 'connection != NULL' failed
- ** (inkscape:xxx): WARNING **: hh:mm:ss.nnn:
Fonts dir '/usr/share/inkscape/fonts' does not exist and will be ignored.
To avoid unnecessary anxiety, capture the message and output it via
kernellog.verbose or kernellog.warn depending on the exit code.

Using convert(1) of ImageMagick for SVG -> PDF conversion results in
PDFs containing raster (bitmap) images which sometimes look blurry.
Ideally speaking, SVG to PDF conversion should retain vector graphics
in SVG.
rsvg-convert(1) can do such conversions with regard to SVG files
generated by dot(1).
Unfortunately, rsvg-convert(1) does not cover some of SVG features
specific to Inkscape.
inkscape(1) of Inkscape naturally covers such SVG features.
So add a route in svg2pdf() so that inkscape(1) is used when it is
available.
Note:
After this change, if you have Inkscape installed, ImageMagick nor
librsvg are not required.

To prevent any regression on existing build systems, limit the
fallback of converting DOT -> raster PDF only when both of the
following conditions are met.
o dot(1) doesn't support -Tpdf
o rsvg-convert(1) is not found
While we are here, add kernellog.verbose messages related to
rsvg-convert, 'dot -Tpdf', and 'dot -Tsvg' commands.

On openSUSE, dot(1) command does not support direct PDF output.
On other distros, generated PDF images have unnecessarily wide margins,
especially for small graphs.
By using dot(1) for DOT -> SVG, then rsvg-convert(1) for SVG -> PDF,
more optimal PDF images can be obtained, with the bonus of improved
portability across various distros.
Add rules in kfigure.py so that the above mentioned route is taken
when rsvg-convert(1) is available.
Note that rsvg-convert(1) is recommended by sphinx_pre_install.
So it is most likely that existing systems for building pdfdocs have
rsvg-convert(1) installed.
Note:
SVG features supported by rsvg-convert(1) vary depending on its
version and distro config.
For example, the one found on Ubuntu Bionic (version 2.40.20) does
poor job in rendering some of SVG files drawn by Inkscape.
SVG files generated by dot(1) are converted nicely even with such
old versions of rsvg-convert.
So this change does not affect the quality of such figures in any
way.

Since commit d18b01789a ("docs: Add automatic cross-reference for
documentation pages"), references that were already explicitly defined
with "ref:" and referred to other pages with a path have been doubled.
This is reported as the following error by Firefox:
Start tag "a" seen but an element of the same type was already open.
End tag "a" violates nesting rules.
As well as the invalid HTML, this also obscures the URI fragment links
to subsections because the second link overrides the first. For example
on the page admin-guide/hw-vuln/mds.html the last link should be to the
"Default Mitigations" subsection using a # URI fragment:
admin-guide/hw-vuln/l1tf.html#default-mitigations
But it is obsured by a second link to the whole page:
admin-guide/hw-vuln/l1tf.html
The full HTML with the double <a> tags looks like this:
<a class="reference internal" href="l1tf.html#default-mitigations">
<span class="std std-ref">
<a class="reference internal" href="l1tf.html">
<span class="doc">L1TF - L1 Terminal Fault</span>
</a>
</span>
</a>
After this commit, there is only a single link:
<a class="reference internal" href="l1tf.html#default-mitigations">
<span class="std std-ref">Documentation/admin-guide/hw-vuln//l1tf.rst</span>
</a>
Now that the second link is removed, the browser correctly jumps to the
default-mitigations subsection when clicking the link.
The fix is to check that nodes in the document to be modified are not
already references. A reference is counted as any text that is a
descendant of a reference type node. Only plain text should be converted
to new references, otherwise the doubling occurs.
Testing
=======
* Test that the build stdout is the same (ignoring ordering), and that
no new warnings are printed.
* Diff all .html files and check that the only modifications occur
to the bad double links.
* The auto linking of bare references to pages without "ref:" is still
working.

sphinx_rtd_theme 0.5.2 has "docutils<0.17" in its requirements.
docutils 0.17 released this April caused regression in
sphinx_rtd_theme 0.5.1 [1].
By removing docutils and moving sphinx_rtd_theme before Sphinx in
requirements.txt, the requirement of "docutils<0.17" can be met
naturally.

Previously, a cross-reference to another document could only be created
by writing the full path to the document starting from the
Documentation/ directory.
Extend this to also allow relative paths to be used. A relative path
would be just the path, like ../filename.rst, while the absolute path
still needs to start from Documentation, like Documentation/filename.rst.
As part of this change, the .rst extension is now required for both
types of paths, since not requiring it would cause the regex to be too
generic.

The kernel build system as a whole is dropping support for Python 2, so we
should do the same. The effects are rather small, especially considering
that much of the deleted code was not doing anything under any version of
Python anyway.
