Hi Rongrong: Thanks for the update. Good to know! As the next, Jon may help to check a bit why this changelist is missed to be merged into LTS Kernel 5.15 and even LTS Kernel 6.1. It should definitely be needed.😊 Best Regards!

Ming, This is a false alarm, Jon already committed the codes in 2021, but the LTS maintainer didn't merge it to LTS Kernel 5.15. And here is the root cause and patch: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/Documentation/conf.py?id=d69dab7de208748ddf79143b39d98db55eee9b4a Best Regards!

Importance: Low Hi Jon: Perfect! Thanks for the quick trying. When you built for 6.134 using Sphinx 7.3.7, did you have a chance to check the output of Sphinx doc? How about the web GUI? Does it look well with the expected decoration? At our side, we can build the Sphinx doc successfully(although also with a lot of warning like you saw) if using Sphinx 8.1.3. But when looking at the web GUI, it is not right. The decoration is missing and the web link layout is also not good. $ linux-5.15/Documentation/output/index.html If we switch back to Sphinx 2.4.4 following below method with extra dependencies added in requirements.txt, we can get the perfect web GUI decoration and layout. $ /usr/bin/python3 -m venv sphinx_2.4.4 $ . sphinx_2.4.4/bin/activate $ pip install -r ./Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/50045aff-91f9-4809-ba3e-b722b325d233@xxxxxxxxxx/T/ https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240226093854.47830-1-lukas.bulwahn@xxxxxxxxx/T/ diff --git a/Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt b/Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt index 2c573541ab712..6e7ed641747f7 100644 --- a/Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt +++ b/Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt @@ -1,4 +1,10 @@ # jinja2>=3.1 is not compatible with Sphinx<4.0 jinja2<3.1 sphinx_rtd_theme +alabaster<0.7.14 +sphinxcontrib-applehelp==1.0.4 +sphinxcontrib-devhelp==1.0.2 +sphinxcontrib-htmlhelp==2.0.1 +sphinxcontrib-qthelp==1.0.3 +sphinxcontrib-serializinghtml==1.1.5 Sphinx==2.4.4 Best Regards!

We recommended that version back then, mostly because the newer versions were slower, but it is absolutely not required. I just did the build for 6.134 using Sphinx 7.3.7. It emits a bunch of deprecation warnings, but otherwise works. There are various fixes in mainline for some of those warnings; somebody could certainly pick them out and ask for stable backports. I can put that onto my list of things to do, but won't get there in the next few days.
