Rasmus correctly observed that the existing jobserver reservation only worked if no other build targets were specified. The correct approach is to hold the jobserver slots until sphinx has finished. To fix this, the following changes are made: - refactor (and rename) scripts/jobserver-exec to set an environment variable for the maximally reserved jobserver slots and exec a child, to release the slots on exit. - create Documentation/scripts/parallel-wrapper.sh which examines both $PARALLELISM and the detected "-jauto" logic from Documentation/Makefile to decide sphinx's final -j argument. - chain these together in Documentation/Makefile Suggested-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/eb25959a-9ec4-3530-2031-d9d716b40b20@rasmusvillemoes.dkSigned-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191121205929.40371-4-keescook@chromium.orgSigned-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

Setting non-blocking via a local copy of the jobserver file descriptor is safer than just assuming other reader processes with the same fd open are prepared for it to be non-blocking.

One of the recurring complaints from both maintainers and CI system operators is that performing git-am on received patches is difficult without knowing the parent object in the git history on which the patches are based. Without this information, there is a high likelihood that git-am will fail due to conflicts, which is particularly frustrating to CI operators. Git versions starting with v2.9.0 are able to automatically include base-commit information using the --base flag of git-format-patch. Document this usage in process/submitting-patches, and add the rationale for its inclusion, plus instructions for those not using git on where the "base-commit:" trailer should go.

Currently, when kernel-doc encounters a macro with a named variable argument[1], such as this: #define hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(pos, head, member, cond...) ... it expects the variable argument to be documented as `cond...`, rather than `cond`. This is semantically wrong, because the name (as used in the macro body) is actually `cond`. With this patch, kernel-doc will accept the name without dots (`cond` in the example above) in doc comments, and warn if the name with dots (`cond...`) is used and verbose mode[2] is enabled. The support for the `cond...` syntax can be removed later, when the documentation of all such macros has been switched to the new syntax. Testing this patch on top of v5.4-rc6, `make htmldocs` shows a few changes in log output and HTML output: 1) The following warnings[3] are eliminated: ./include/linux/rculist.h:374: warning: Excess function parameter 'cond' description in 'list_for_each_entry_rcu' ./include/linux/rculist.h:651: warning: Excess function parameter 'cond' description in 'hlist_for_each_entry_rcu' 2) For list_for_each_entry_rcu and hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, the correct description is shown 3) Named variable arguments are shown without dots [1]: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Variadic-Macros.html [2]: scripts/kernel-doc -v [3]: See also https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu.git/commit/?h=dev&id=5bc4bc0d6153617eabde275285b7b5a8137fdf3cSigned-off-by: Jonathan Neuschäfer <j.neuschaefer@gmx.net> Tested-by: Paul E.
