Currently, cpu-models-x86.rst.inc is included in target-i386.rst directly. To make the toctree more homogeneous when adding more documentation, include it through a first-class .rst file. Together with the previous changes to the man page skeletons, this also frees "===" for the headings, so that cpu-models-x86.rst.inc need not assume anything about the headings used by target-i386.rst.

2021-09-13docs/system: standardize man page sections to --- with overlinePaolo Bonzini3-3/+14
Man pages in docs/system use file inclusion heavily. Use headings with overlines in the main files, so that the same included file work well from both manuals and man pages. This style of heading is a bit more heavy-weight, so it is not used by the other man pages in interop/ and tools/. If in the future they are changed to use include files, for example to avoid having sections named "synopsis" or "description", they can switch to --- with overline as well.

2021-09-13docs: standardize directory index to --- with overlinePaolo Bonzini1-1/+2
Use a standard heading format for the index.rst file in a directory. Using overlines makes it clear that individual documents can use e.g. === for chapter titles and --- for section titles, as suggested in the Linux kernel guidelines[1]. They could do it anyway, because documents included in a toctree are parsed separately and therefore are not tied to the same conventions for headings. However, keeping some consistency is useful since sometimes files are included from multiple places.

2021-09-13docs: standardize book titles to === with overlinePaolo Bonzini3-2/+5
Documents within a Sphinx manual are separate files and therefore can use different conventions for headings. However, keeping some consistency is useful so that included files are easy to get right. This patch uses a standard heading format for book titles, so that it is obvious when a file sits at the top level toctree of a book or man page. The heading is irrelevant for man pages, but keep it consistent as well. Reviewed-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2021-08-02docs: Format literals correctlyPeter Maydell8-14/+14
In rST markup, single backticks `like this` represent "interpreted text", which can be handled as a bunch of different things if tagged with a specific "role": https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#interpreted-text (the most common one for us is "reference to a URL, which gets hyperlinked").

2021-07-18docs: Move deprecation, build and license info out of system/Peter Maydell5-954/+0
Now that we have a single Sphinx manual rather than multiple manuals, we can provide a better place for "common to all of QEMU" information like the deprecation notices, build platforms, license information, which we currently have in the system/ manual even though it applies to all of QEMU. Create a new directory about/ on the same level as system/, user/, etc, and move these documents there.

2021-07-18docs: Stop calling the top level subsections of our manual 'manuals'Peter Maydell1-4/+1
We merged our previous multiple-manual setup into a single Sphinx manual, but we left some text in the various index.rst lines that still calls the top level subsections separate 'manuals'. Update them to talk about "this section of the manual" instead, and remove now-obsolete comments about how the index.rst files are the "top level page for the 'foo' manual".

into staging ppc patch queue 2021-07-09 Here's a (probably) final pull request before the qemu-6.1 soft freeze. Includes: * Implementation of the new H_RPT_INVALIDATE hypercall * Virtual Open Firmware for pSeries and pegasos2 machine types. This is an experimental minimal Open Firmware implementation which works by delegating nearly everything to qemu itself via a special hypercall. * A number of cleanups to the ppc soft MMU code * Fix to handling of two-level radix mode translations for the powernv machine type * Update the H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS call with newly defined bits. This will allow more flexible handling of possible future CPU Spectre-like flaws * Correctly treat mtmsrd as an illegal instruction on BookE cpus * Firmware update for the ppce500 machine type # gpg: Signature made Fri 09 Jul 2021 06:16:42 BST # gpg: using RSA key 75F46586AE61A66CC44E87DC6C38CACA20D9B392 # gpg: Good signature from "David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>" [full] # gpg: aka "David Gibson (Red Hat) <dgibson@redhat.com>" [full] # gpg: aka "David Gibson (ozlabs.org) <dgibson@ozlabs.org>" [full] # gpg: aka "David Gibson (kernel.org) <dwg@kernel.org>" [unknown] # Primary key fingerprint: 75F4 6586 AE61 A66C C44E 87DC 6C38 CACA 20D9 B392 * remotes/dg-gitlab/tags/ppc-for-6.1-20210709: (33 commits) target/ppc: Support for H_RPT_INVALIDATE hcall linux-headers: Update spapr: Fix implementation of Open Firmware client interface target/ppc: Don't compile ppc_tlb_invalid_all without TCG ppc/pegasos2: Implement some RTAS functions with VOF ppc/pegasos2: Fix use of && instead of & ppc/pegasos2: Use Virtual Open Firmware as firmware replacement target/ppc/spapr: Update H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS L1D cache flush bits target/ppc: Allow virtual hypervisor on CPU without HV ppc/pegasos2: Introduce Pegasos2MachineState structure target/ppc: mtmsrd is an illegal instruction on BookE spapr: Implement Open Firmware client interface docs/system: ppc: Update ppce500 documentation with eTSEC support roms/u-boot: Bump ppce500 u-boot to v2021.07 to add eTSEC support target/ppc: change ppc_hash32_xlate to use mmu_idx target/ppc: introduce mmu-books.h target/ppc: changed ppc_hash64_xlate to use mmu_idx target/ppc: fix address translation bug for radix mmus target/ppc: Fix compilation with DEBUG_BATS debug option target/ppc: Fix compilation with FLUSH_ALL_TLBS debug option ...
