Documentation: remove :kyb: tags

2024-12-11T16:07:39+00:00

:kyb: is an extra markup that we should avoid when we can. It worsens the plain-text reading experience and adds very little value to rendered views.

Documentation: kgdb: Replace deprecated remotebaud

2022-01-07T16:33:13+00:00

Using set remotebaud to set the baud rate was deprecated in gdb-7.7 and completely removed from the command parser in gdb-7.8 (released in 2014). Adopt set serial baud instead.

Documentation: kgdb: properly capitalize the MAGIC_SYSRQ config

2022-01-03T22:54:00+00:00

Most readers are probably going to figure out that the config is actually all upper-case letters, as all Kconfig symbols are this way. Properly capitalizing makes the script ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py happy, which otherwise would report this as a reference to a non-existing Kconfig symbol. So, use the right capitalization for the MAGIC_SYSRQ config in the kgdb documentation.

docs: kgdb.rst: fix :c:type: usages

2020-10-15T05:49:44+00:00

Which Sphinx 3, :c:type: can't be used anymore for structs, as this should be used only for typedefs. Rely on automarkup.py for struct references. This file has an special case, though: it uses the tag also to point to an array. Let's use, instead, :c:expr: for such purpose, as it should do the right thing. This should fix this warning: ./Documentation/dev-tools/kgdb.rst:875: WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: 'kdb_poll_funcs[]' Invalid C declaration: Expected end of definition.
