xeCJK is enabled in Table of Contents (TOC) so that translations.pdf built by top-level "make pdfdocs" can have its TOC typeset properly. This causes quotation marks and apostrophe symbols appear too wide in Latin-script docs. This is because (1) Sphinx converts ASCII symbols into multi-byte UTF-8 ones in LaTeX and (2) in the SC variant of "Noto CJK" font families, those UTF-8 symbols have full-width glyph. The KR variant of the font families has half-width glyph for those symbols and TOC pages should look nicer when it is used instead. Switch the default CJK font families to the KR variant and teach xeCJK of those symbols' widths. To compensate the switch, teach xeCJK of the width in the SC and TC variants.

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 reference manual" at: http://latexref.xyz/Table-of-contents-etc_002e.htmlSigned-off-by: Akira Yokosawa <akiyks@gmail.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/e52b4718-7909-25be-fbc1-76800aa62ae3@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

It turns out that LaTeX enables \write18, which allows (some) shell commands to be executed from the document source, by default. This the often-seen warning during a pdfdocs build: restricted \write18 enabled That is a potential security problem and is entirely unnecessary; nothing in the kernel PDF docs build needs that capability. So disable \write18 explicitly.

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 conversion when it is available. They don't modify any existing 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.

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.

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.

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.
