2024-01-03docs: kernel_abi.py: fix command injectionVegard Nossum1-1/+1
The kernel-abi directive passes its argument straight to the shell. This is unfortunate and unnecessary. Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True). This also makes the code shorter.

2020-10-30docs: ABI: make it parse ABI/stable as ReST-compatible filesMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+1
Now that the stable ABI files are compatible with ReST, parse them without converting complex descriptions as literal blocks nor escaping special characters. Please notice that escaping special characters will probably be needed at descriptions, at least for the asterisk character.

2020-10-30docs: add ABI documentation to the admin-guide bookMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+13
As we don't want a generic Sphinx extension to execute commands, change the one proposed to Markus to call the abi_book.pl script. Use a script to parse the Documentation/ABI directory and output it at the admin-guide.
