Thorsten Leemhuis [Wed, 16 Feb 2022 06:51:34 +0000 (07:51 +0100)]
docs: *-regressions.rst: explain how quickly issues should be handled

Add a section with a few rules of thumb about how
quickly developers should address regressions to
Documentation/process/handling-regressions.rst; additionally,
add a short paragraph about this to the companion document
Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-regressions.rst as well.

The rules of thumb were written after studying the quotes from Linus
found in handling-regressions.rst and especially influenced by
statements like "Users are literally the _only_ thing that matters" and
"without users, your program is not a program, it's a pointless piece of
code that you might as well throw away". The author interpreted those in
perspective to how the various Linux kernel series are maintained
currently and what those practices might mean for users running into a
regression on a small or big kernel update.

That for example lead to the paragraph starting with "Aim to get fixes
for regressions mainlined within one week after identifying the culprit,
if the regression was introduced in a stable/longterm release or the
devel cycle for the latest mainline release". Some might see this as
pretty high bar, but on the other hand something like that is needed to
not leave users out in the cold for too long -- which can quickly happen
when updating to the latest stable series, as the previous one is
normally stamped "End of Life" about three or four weeks after a new
mainline release. This makes a lot of users switch during this
timeframe. Any of them thus risk running into regressions not promptly
fixed; even worse, once the previous stable series is EOLed for real,
users that face a regression might be left with only three options:

 (1) continue running an outdated and thus potentially insecure kernel
     version from an abandoned stable series

 (2) run the kernel with the regression

 (3) downgrade to an earlier longterm series still supported

This is better avoided, as (1) puts users and their data in danger, (2)
will only be possible if it's a minor regression that doesn't interfere
with booting or serious usage, and (3) might be regression itself or
impossible on the particular machine, as the users might require drivers
or features only introduced after the latest longterm series branched
of.

In the end this lead to the aforementioned "Aim to fix regression within
one week" part. It's also the reason for the "Try to resolve any
regressions introduced in the current development cycle before its
end.".

That's how the script works now. I think this describes the syntax better.
The plurar suggests multiple FILE arguments might be possible. So this

to be ignored.
This works as far as the argument (#1) is not used in the command.
In place of skipped contents, put a note on skipped contents at the
beginning of the PDF.

Change the call sites in index.rst of CJK translations accordingly.

When CJK fonts are available, existing command definitions with
no argument just work.  LaTeX engine will see additional pairs of
"{" and "}", which add a level of grouping without having any effect

docs: pdfdocs: Tweak width params of TOC

Sphinx has its own set of width parameters of Table of Contents (TOC)
for LaTeX defined in its class definition of sphinxmanual.cls.
It also inherits parameters for chapter entries from report.cls of
original LaTeX base.

However, they are optimized assuming small documents with tens of
pages and chapters/sections of less than 10.

To cope with some of kernel-doc documents with more than 1000
pages and several tens of chapters/sections, definitions of those
parameters need to be adjusted.

Unfortunately, those parameters are hard coded in the class
definitions and need low-level LaTeX coding tricks to redefine.

As Sphinx 1.7.9 does not have \sphinxtableofcontentshook,
which defines those parameters in later Sphinx versions,
for compatibility with both pre-1.8 and later Sphinx versions,
empty the hook altogether and redefine \@pnumwidth, \l@chapter,
\l@section, and \@subsection commands originally defined in
report.cls.

Summary of parameter changes:

  Width of page number (\@pnumwidth): 1.55em  -> 2.7em
  Width of chapter number:  1.5em -> 1.8em
  Indent of section number: 1.5em -> 1.8em
  Width of section number:  2.6em -> 3.2em
  Indent of subsection number: 4.1em -> 5em
  Width of subsection number:  3.5em -> 4.3em

Notes:
1. Parameters for subsection become relevant only when
   ":maxdepth: 3" is specified under "toctree::" (e.g., RCU/index.rst).
   They can hold subsection numbers up to 5 digits such as "18.7.13"
   (in RCU.pdf).

2. Number of chapters in driver-api.pdf is getting closer to 100.
   When it reaches 100, another set of tweaks will be necessary.

3. The low-level LaTeX trick is mentioned in "Unofficial LaTeX2e

Merge branch 'pdf-conversion' into docs-next

PDF-generation improvements from Akira Yokasawa; Akira says:

This patch set improves conversions of DOT -> PDF and SVG -> PDF
for PDF docs.

* DOT -> PDF conversion

Current scheme uses "dot -Tpdf" (of graphviz).

Cons:
  - openSUSE's dot(1) does not support -Tpdf.
  - Other distro's dot(1) generates PDFs with unnecessarily wide
    margins for inclusion into LaTeX docs.

Patch 1/4 changes the route to the following two steps:

  1. DOT -> SVG by "dot -Tsvg"
  2. SVG -> PDF by "rsvg-convert -f pdf" with fallback to convert(1)

Pros:
  - Improved portability across distros
  - Less space around graphs in final PDF documents

Con:
  - On systems without rsvg-convert, generated PDF will be of raster
    image.

Patch 2/4 avoids raster-image PDF by using "dot -Tpdf" on systems where
the option is available.

* SVG -> PDF conversion

Current scheme uses convert(1) (of ImageMagick)

Cons:
  - Generated PDFs are of raster image.  Some of them look blurry.
  - Raster images tend to be large in size.
  - convert(1) delegates SVG decoding to rsvg-convert(1).
    It doesn't cover full range of Inkscape-specific SVG features
    and fails to convert some of SVG figures properly.

Improper conversions are observed with SVGs listed below (incomplete,
conversion quality depends on the version of rsvg-convert):
  - Documentation/userspace-api/media/v4l/selection.svg
  - Documentation/userspace-api/media/v4l/vbi_525.svg
  - Documentation/userspace-api/media/v4l/vbi_625.svg
  - Documentation/userspace-api/media/v4l/vbi_hsync.svg
  - Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/drbd/DRBD-8.3-data-packets.svg
  - Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/drbd/DRBD-data-packages.svg

If you have Inkscape installed as well, convert(1) delegates SVG
decoding to inkscape(1) rather than to rsvg-convert(1) and SVGs listed
above can be rendered properly.

So if Inkscape is required for converting those SVGs properly, why not
use it directly in the first place?

Patches 3/4 and 4/4 add code to utilize inkscape(1) for SVG -> PDF

requirements for kernel-doc.

Patch 3/4 adds the alternative route of SVG -> PDF conversion by
inkscape(1).
Patch 4/4 delegates warning messages from inkscape(1) to kernellog.verbose
as they are likely harmless in command-line uses.

Pros:
  - Generated PDFs are of vector graphics.
  - Vector graphics tends to be smaller in size and looks nicer when
    zoomed in.
  - SVGs drawn by Inkscape are fully supported.

On systems without Inkscape, no regression is expected by these two
patches.

docs: sphinx/kfigure.py: Use inkscape(1) for SVG -> PDF conversion

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.

docs: sphinx/kfigure.py: Use rsvg-convert(1) for DOT -> PDF conversion

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

 "Fix s390 breakage from sorting mcount tables.

  The latest merge of the tracing tree sorts the mcount table at build
  time. But s390 appears to do things differently (like always) and
  replaces the sorted table back to the original unsorted one. As the
  ftrace algorithm depends on it being sorted, bad things happen when it
  is not, and s390 experienced those bad things.

  Add a new config to tell the boot if the mcount table is sorted or
  not, and allow s390 to opt out of it"

2 years agoftrace: Fix assuming build time sort works for s390

ftrace: Fix assuming build time sort works for s390

To speed up the boot process, as mcount_loc needs to be sorted for ftrace
to work properly, sorting it at build time is more efficient than boot up
and can save milliseconds of time. Unfortunately, this change broke s390
as it will modify the mcount_loc location after the sorting takes place
and will put back the unsorted locations. Since the sorting is skipped at
boot up if it is believed that it was sorted at run time, ftrace can crash
as its algorithms are dependent on the list being sorted.

Add a new config BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT that is set when
BUILDTIME_TABLE_SORT but not if S390 is set. Use this config to determine
if sorting should take place at boot up.
