2024-07-09Docs: Fix paths in references to other markdown documentsNicholas Chin
This fixes a few "cross-reference target not found" warnings from MyST parser. In these cases, the relative path to the target markdown document was incorrect.

2024-03-21Docs: Replace Recommonmark with MyST ParserNicholas Chin
Recommonmark has been deprecated since 2021 [1] and the last release was over 3 years ago [2]. As per their announcement, Markedly Structured Text (MyST) Parser [3] is the recommended replacement. For the most part, the existing documentation is compatible with MyST, as both parsers are built around the CommonMark flavor of Markdown. The main difference that affects coreboot is how the Sphinx toctree is generated. Recommonmark has a feature called auto_toc_tree, which converts single level lists of references into a toctree: * [Part 1: Starting from scratch](part1.md) * [Part 2: Submitting a patch to coreboot.org](part2.md) * [Part 3: Writing unit tests](part3.md) * [Managing local additions](managing_local_additions.md) * [Flashing firmware](flashing_firmware/index.md) MyST Parser does not provide a replacement for this feature, meaning the toctree must be defined manually. This is done using MyST's syntax for Sphinx directives: ```{toctree} :maxdepth: 1 Part 1: Starting from scratch <part1.md> Part 2: Submitting a patch to coreboot.org <part2.md> Part 3: Writing unit tests <part3.md> Managing local additions <managing_local_additions.md> Flashing firmware <flashing_firmware/index.md> ``` Internally, auto_toc_tree essentially converts lists of references into the Sphinx toctree structure that the MyST syntax above more directly represents. The toctrees were converted to the MyST syntax using the following command and Python script: `find ./ -iname "*.md" | xargs -n 1 python conv_toctree.py` ``` import re import sys in_list = False f = open(sys.argv[1]) lines = f.readlines() f.close() with open(sys.argv[1], "w") as f: for line in lines: match = re.match(r"^[-*+] \[(.*)\]\((.*)\)$", line) if match is not None: if not in_list: in_list = True f.write("```{toctree}\n") f.write(":maxdepth: 1\n\n") f.write(match.group(1) + " <" + match.group(2) + ">\n") else: if in_list: f.write("```\n") f.write(line) in_list = False if in_list: f.write("```\n") ``` While this does add a little more work for creating the toctree, this does give more control over exactly what goes into the toctree. For instance, lists of links to external resources currently end up in the toctree, but we may want to limit it to pages within coreboot. This change does break rendering and navigation of the documentation in applications that can render Markdown, such as Okular, Gitiles, or the GitHub mirror. Assuming the docs are mainly intended to be viewed after being rendered to doc.coreboot.org, this is probably not an issue in practice. Another difference is that MyST natively supports Markdown tables, whereas with Recommonmark, tables had to be written in embedded rST [4]. However, MyST also supports embedded rST, so the existing tables can be easily converted as the syntax is nearly identical. These were converted using `find ./ -iname "*.md" | xargs -n 1 sed -i "s/eval_rst/{eval-rst}/"` Makefile.sphinx and conf.py were regenerated from scratch by running `sphinx-quickstart` using the updated version of Sphinx, which removes a lot of old commented out boilerplate. Any relevant changes coreboot had made on top of the previous autogenerated versions of these files were ported over to the newly generated file. From some initial testing the generated webpages appear and function identically to the existing documentation built with Recommonmark. TEST: `make -C util/docker docker-build-docs` builds the documentation successfully and the generated output renders properly when viewed in a web browser.

2019-09-26mb/supermicro: restructure x11ssh-tf to represent a x11 board seriesMichael Niewöhner
Most of the X11 boards with socket LGA1151 are basically the same boards with just some minor differences like different NICs (1 GbE, 10 GbE), number of NICs / PCIe ports etc. There are about 20 boards that can be added, if there is a community for testing. To be able to add more x11 boards easily like x11ssm (see CB:35427) this restructures the x11ssh tree to represent a "X11 LGA1151 series". There were multiple suggestions for the structure like grouping by series (x10, x11, x...), grouping by chipset or by cpu family. It turned out that there are some "X11 series" boards that are completely different. Grouping by chipset or cpu family suffers from the same problem. This is why finally we agreed on grouping by series and socket ("X11 LGA1151 series"). The structure uses the common baseboard scheme, while there is no "real" baseboard we know of. By checking images, comparing logs etc. we came to the conclusion that Supermicro does have some base layout which is only modified a bit for the different boards. X11SSH-TF was moved to the variants/ folder with it's gpio.h. As we expect the other boards to have mostly the same device tree, there is a common devicetree that gets overridden by each variant's overridetree. Besides that some very minor modifications happened (formatting, fixing comments, ...) but not much.
