2021-09-13docs: standardize book titles to === with overlinePaolo Bonzini
Documents within a Sphinx manual are separate files and therefore can use different conventions for headings. However, keeping some consistency is useful so that included files are easy to get right. This patch uses a standard heading format for book titles, so that it is obvious when a file sits at the top level toctree of a book or man page. The heading is irrelevant for man pages, but keep it consistent as well. Reviewed-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2021-07-18docs: Move deprecation, build and license info out of system/Peter Maydell
Now that we have a single Sphinx manual rather than multiple manuals, we can provide a better place for "common to all of QEMU" information like the deprecation notices, build platforms, license information, which we currently have in the system/ manual even though it applies to all of QEMU. Create a new directory about/ on the same level as system/, user/, etc, and move these documents there.

2020-03-12docs/index.rst, docs/index.html.in: Reorder manualsPeter Maydell
Now that qemu-doc.html is no longer present, the ordering of manuals within the top-level index page looks a bit odd. Reshuffle so that the manuals the user is most likely to be interested in are at the top of the list, and the reference material is at the bottom. Similarly, we reorder the index.rst file used as the base of the "all manuals in one" documentation for readthedocs. The new order is: * system * user * tools * interop * specs * QMP reference (if present) * Guest agent protocol reference (if present) * devel (if present) Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org> Message-id: 20200306171749.10756-7-peter.maydell@linaro.org
2020-03-06qemu-doc: convert user-mode emulation to a separate Sphinx manualPaolo Bonzini
The final addition to the set of QEMU manuals is the user-mode emulation manual, which right now is included in qemu-doc.texi. Extract it and convert it to rST, so that qemu-doc.texi covers only full system emulation.

2020-02-25docs: Create new 'tools' manualPeter Maydell
Some of the documentation for QEMU "tools" which are standalone binaries like qemu-img is an awkward fit in our current 5-manual split. We've put it into "interop", but they're not really about interoperability. Create a new top level manual "tools" which will be a better home for this documentation. This commit creates an empty initial manual; we will move the relevant documentation files in a subsequent commit.

2019-03-07docs: Provide separate conf.py for each manual we wantPeter Maydell
By default Sphinx wants to build a single manual at once. For QEMU, this doesn't suit us, because we want to have separate manuals for "Developer's Guide", "User Manual", and so on, and we don't want to ship the Developer's Guide to end-users. However, we don't want to completely duplicate conf.py for each manual, and we'd like to continue to support "build all docs in one run" for third-party sites like readthedocs.org. Make the top-level conf.py support two usage forms: (1) as a common config file which is included by the conf.py for each of QEMU's manuals: in this case sphinx-build is run multiple times, once per subdirectory. (2) as a top level conf file which will result in building all the manuals into a single document: in this case sphinx-build is run once, on the top-level docs directory. Provide per-manual conf.py files and top level pages for our first two manuals: * QEMU Developer's Guide (docs/devel) * QEMU System Emulation Management and Interoperability Guide (docs/interop) Reviewed-by: Alex Bennée <alex.bennee@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Acked-by: Aleksandar Markovic <amarkovic@wavecomp.com> Message-id: 20190305172139.32662-9-peter.maydell@linaro.org Message-id: 20190228145624.24885-9-peter.maydell@linaro.org
