Remove the current rst pages. Add 3 man pages to have a base for more additions: libperf.3 - overall description libperf-counting.7 - counting basics explained on simple example libperf-sampling.7 - sampling basics explained on simple example The plan is to add more man pages to cover the basic API. The build generates html and man pages: $ cd tools/lib/perf/Documentation $ make ASCIIDOC libperf.xml XMLTO libperf.3 ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.xml XMLTO libperf-counting.7 ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.xml XMLTO libperf-sampling.7 ASCIIDOC libperf.html ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.html ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.html Add the following install targets: install-man - man pages install-html - html version of man pages install-examples - examples mentioned in the man pages Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Michael Petlan Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191206210612.8676-3-jolsa@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile | 159 +++++- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/asciidoc.conf | 120 ++++- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/examples/sampling.c | 119 ++++- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/libperf-counting.txt | 211 ++++++++- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/libperf-sampling.txt | 243 +++++++++- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/libperf.txt | 246 +++++++++- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/man/libperf.rst | 100 +---- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-1.72.xsl | 14 +- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-base.xsl | 35 +- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-bold-literal.xsl | 17 +- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-normal.xsl | 13 +- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-suppress-sp.xsl | 21 +- tools/lib/perf/Documentation/tutorial/tutorial.rst | 123 +----- tools/lib/perf/Makefile | 5 +- 14 files changed, 1197 insertions(+), 229 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/asciidoc.conf create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/examples/sampling.c create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/libperf-counting.txt create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/libperf-sampling.txt create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/libperf.txt delete mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/man/libperf.rst create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-1.72.xsl create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-base.xsl create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-bold-literal.xsl create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-normal.xsl create mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/manpage-suppress-sp.xsl delete mode 100644 tools/lib/perf/Documentation/tutorial/tutorial.rst diff --git a/tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile b/tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile index 586425a..9727540 100644 --- a/tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile +++ b/tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile @@ -1,7 +1,156 @@ -all: - rst2man man/libperf.rst > man/libperf.7 - rst2pdf tutorial/tutorial.rst +# SPDX-License-Identifier: (LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause) +# Most of this file is copied from tools/perf/Documentation/Makefile + +include ../../../scripts/Makefile.include +include ../../../scripts/utilities.mak + +MAN3_TXT = libperf.txt +MAN7_TXT = libperf-counting.txt libperf-sampling.txt +MAN_EX = examples/*.c + +MAN_TXT = $(MAN3_TXT) $(MAN7_TXT) + +_MAN_XML = $(patsubst %.txt,%.xml,$(MAN_TXT)) +_MAN_HTML = $(patsubst %.txt,%.html,$(MAN_TXT)) +_MAN_3 = $(patsubst %.txt,%.3,$(MAN3_TXT)) +_MAN_7 = $(patsubst %.txt,%.7,$(MAN7_TXT)) + +MAN_XML = $(addprefix $(OUTPUT),$(_MAN_XML)) +MAN_HTML = $(addprefix $(OUTPUT),$(_MAN_HTML)) +MAN_3 = $(addprefix $(OUTPUT),$(_MAN_3)) +MAN_7 = $(addprefix $(OUTPUT),$(_MAN_7)) +MAN_X = $(MAN_3) $(MAN_7) + +# Make the path relative to DESTDIR, not prefix +ifndef DESTDIR + prefix ?=$(HOME) +endif + +mandir ?= $(prefix)/share/man +man3dir = $(mandir)/man3 +man7dir = $(mandir)/man7 + +docdir ?= $(prefix)/share/doc/libperf +htmldir = $(docdir)/html +exdir = $(docdir)/examples + +ASCIIDOC = asciidoc +ASCIIDOC_EXTRA = --unsafe -f asciidoc.conf +ASCIIDOC_HTML = xhtml11 +MANPAGE_XSL = manpage-normal.xsl +XMLTO_EXTRA = +XMLTO =xmlto + +INSTALL ?= install +RM ?= rm -f + +# For asciidoc ... +# -7.1.2, no extra settings are needed. +# 8.0-, set ASCIIDOC8. +# + +# For docbook-xsl ... +# -1.68.1, set ASCIIDOC_NO_ROFF?
