They also remove many, but not all warnings issued by\nmeson e.g. warnings about newer features unsupported in baseline.\n\nThe biggest change is to improve the handling of the guide html docs.\nThe change here is more significant, and the doc build now uses a\nwrapper script around sphinx. This wrapper script allows us to output\ncorrect dependency information for the sphinx build in a .d file. This\n.d file is processed by ninja (not meson) on build, so that any changes\nto doc files trigger a rebuild to the guides using sphinx.\n\nFor now, the two patches which remove the meson version warnings are\nCC'ed to stable for backport, theoretically this who set could be\nbackported if so desired, as all changes could be considered fixes to\nsome degree or other, and nothing introduces a whole new feature.\n\nNote: for completeness and simplicity, previously submitted patch\nhttp://patches.dpdk.org/patch/64189/ is included in this set, and will\nbe marked superceded in patchwork.\n\nV3: Shorten the python code in patch 5, and ensure style compliance as\n flagged by Aaron.\n\nV2: resend to correct email addresses\n\nBruce Richardson (6):\n kernel/linux/kni: fix meson warning about console keyword\n build: skip processing docs folder if docs disabled\n doc/api: fix warning with meson build\n doc/guides: reduce whitespace in meson build file\n doc/guides: rebuild with meson whenever a file changes\n doc/api: reduce indentation in meson build file\n\n buildtools/call-sphinx-build.py | 23 ++++++++\n buildtools/meson.build | 6 +-\n doc/api/meson.build | 99 +++++++++++++++++----------------\n doc/guides/meson.build | 38 ++++++-------\n doc/meson.build | 4 ++\n kernel/linux/kni/meson.build | 1 -\n 6 files changed, 98 insertions(+), 73 deletions(-)\n create mode 100755 buildtools/call-sphinx-build.py" }
