2021-05-14sphinx: adopt kernel readthedoc themeMarc-André Lureau
The default "alabaster" sphinx theme has a couple shortcomings: - the navbar moves along the page - the search bar is not always at the same place - it lacks some contrast and colours The "rtd" theme from readthedocs.org is a popular third party theme used notably by the kernel, with a custom style sheet. I like it better, perhaps others do too. It also simplifies the "Edit on Gitlab" links. Tweak a bit the custom theme to match qemu.org style, use the QEMU logo, and favicon etc. Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Tested-by: Bin Meng <bmeng.cn@gmail.com> Message-Id: <20210323115328.4146052-1-marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: John Snow <jsnow@redhat.com>

2021-02-15docs/user: Remove outdated 'Quick Start' sectionPeter Maydell
The 'Quick Start' section of the userspace emulator documentation is very old and outdated. In particular: - it suggests running x86-on-x86 emulation, which is the least interesting possible use case - it recommends that users download tarballs of guest binaries from the QEMU web page which we no longer provide there There's nothing salvageable here; delete it all.

2021-01-19docs: Build and install all the docs in a single manualPeter Maydell
When we first converted our documentation to Sphinx, we split it into multiple manuals (system, interop, tools, etc), which are all built separately. The primary driver for this was wanting to be able to avoid shipping the 'devel' manual to end-users. However, this is working against the grain of the way Sphinx wants to be used and causes some annoyances: * Cross-references between documents become much harder or possibly impossible * There is no single index to the whole documentation * Within one manual there's no links or table-of-contents info that lets you easily navigate to the others * The devel manual doesn't get published on the QEMU website (it would be nice to able to refer to it there) Merely hiding our developer documentation from end users seems like it's not enough benefit for these costs. Combine all the documentation into a single manual (the same way that the readthedocs site builds it) and install the whole thing. The previous manual divisions remain as the new top level sections in the manual. * The per-manual conf.py files are no longer needed * The man_pages[] specifications previously in each per-manual conf.py move to the top level conf.py * docs/meson.build logic is simplified as we now only need to run Sphinx once for the HTML and then once for the manpages5B * The old index.html.in that produced the top-level page with links to each manual is no longer needed Unfortunately this means that we now have to build the HTML documentation into docs/manual in the build tree rather than directly into docs/; otherwise it is too awkward to ensure we install only the built manual and not also the dependency info, stamp file, etc. The manual still ends up in the same place in the final installed directory, but anybody who was consulting documentation from within the build tree will have to adjust where they're looking.

2020-03-12docs: Be consistent about capitalization of 'Arm'Peter Maydell
The company 'Arm' went through a rebranding some years back involving a recapitalization from 'ARM' to 'Arm'. As a result our documentation is a bit inconsistent between the two forms. It's not worth trying to update everywhere in QEMU, but it's easy enough to make docs/ consistent. Note that "ARMv8" and similar architecture names, and older CPU names like "ARM926" still retain all-caps.

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.
