Sphinx is a documentation system, which is popular for technical writing. It

Second try, this time also works for all links to xen-vbd-interface(7).
We don't try anymore to have pod2html generate relative links, instead
we do it ourself.
First, we modify all links to man pages to have what looks like an
absolute URL and pod2html will just write it in the html output.
Absolute URL in POD are in the form L<text|scheme:...> so let's just use
a scheme that isn't real, but easy to find in the resulting html output:
"relative:".
Then we fix the output and remove all the bogus scheme "relative" and
can end up with nice relative links.

Currently, all links to other man pages are sent to
http://man.he.net/man$mansection/$manpage, but that site doesn't have
Xen man pages, so all links to other Xen man pages are broken.
In order to fix that, this is going to be a bit complex.
First, we need to teach pod2html on where other .pod files can be found,
otherwise it isn't going make any links to our pages. This is done with
--podpath.
Second, pod2html doesn't actually understand our format
"$manpage.$mansection.pod". But instead of teaching it (which is
probably impossible) we are going to modify our .pod files in order to
tell pod2html which file to look for. This is done with the sed command
by transforming for example: "L<xl.conf(5)>" to "L<xl.conf(5)|xl.conf.5>".
Last but not least, in order to have relative links to the other
generated man page, we are going against the rules, we are going to use
"--htmlroot=." so that pod2html doesn't prepand "/" to all "relative"
links. We are also going to `cd` into the "man" dir and set podpath to
"." so that pod2html is going to generate relative links to other pod
file in the form "./$man" insteadof "man/$man" or "../$man" with other
compination of options. The result of --podpath + --podroot can be check
in pod2html's cache file "pod2html.tmp".
All of this is going to generate links in the form "./$html_manpage".
But all of this doesn't work for xen-vbd-interface(7), because it's not
a pod file... maybe we could generate pod2html's cache (pod2html.tmp)
file to add en entry.

The original intent of this patch was to rename xen-vbd-interface.markdown.7
to xen-vbd-interface.pandoc.7 to remove the final markdown file from the docs/
tree.
The DOC_MANx lists are broken. They contain MANxSRC-y twice, the first half
with a partial %.pod substituation, and the second half with a partial
%.markdown substitution. This is also the root cause behind the filtering
activity in the uninstall-man$(i)-pages rule.
Furthermore, the logic for generating the manpage targets is unnecesserily
repetative, owing to the layout of source files in the man/ directory.
Therefore, tackle the problem by renaming all of our manpage source files from
"$FORMAT.$SECTION" to "$SECTION.$FORMAT". For the two xl.cfg.5 and xl.1 which
are preprocessed by autoconf to contain path information, this requires
updating configure.ac and .gitignore. The markdown to pandoc conversion is
performed as well, as it is also a straight rename.
An ancillary benefit of this renaming is that text editors stand a chance of
being able to work out the correct mode to use.
As for the makefile:
1) Break the MAN_SECTIONS list out of the GENERATE_MANPAGE_RULES loop, as we
are going to use it a second time.
2) Do away with the individaul MANxSRC-y variables. Use a single list,
derived from all *.pod and *.pandoc files, with their format suffixes
removed.
3) Use a $(foreach ...) to generate the DOC_MANx lists, filling them with the
correct content.
4) The DOC_HTML and DOC_TXT can now include all manpages with a single
substitution, as they don't need to separate the manpages by
section-numbered-directory.
5) Fix up the filenames in the manpage metarule to match the renaming.
No functional change.

c/s a3a99df44 "docs/cmdline: Rewrite the cpuid_mask_* section" completely
forgot about how markdown gets rendered to HTML (as opposed to PDF), because
we use different translators depending on the destination format.
markdown and pandoc are very similar markup languages, but a couple of details
about pandoc cause it to have far more user-friendly inline markup.
Switch all markdown documents to be pandoc (so we are using a single
translator, and therefore a single flavour of markdown), which fixes the
rendered docs on xenbits.xen.org/docs.
While changing the format, fix the remainder of the escaped underscores in the
same mannor as the previous patch. The two problem cases here are __LINE__
and __FILE__ where the first underscore still needs escaping.
In addition, dmop.markdown and dom0less.markdown didn't used to get processed,
as only .markdown files in the misc/ directory got considered.
dom0less.pandoc gets picked up automatically now, due to being in the
features/ directory, but designs/ needs adding to the pandoc directory list
for dmop.pandoc to get processed.
While edting in appropriate areas, take the opportunity to fix some markup to
the surrounding style, and drop trailing whitespace.
No change in content - only formatting. This results in the text being easier

Running "make uninstall" does not remove all installed files, a
situation which might cause link related issues if xen is re-installed
in a different location.
In order to make uninstall correctly remove the files it is best
the process should be done recursively by mirroring each "install"
target with an "uninstall" who removes the installed files.
An exception to this rule is uninstalling the files produced by
"qemu-xen-dir-remote" and "qemu-xen-traditional-dir", which are external
to the project. These projects do not implement an "uninstall" target so
the files have to be removed manually.

Multi-target non-pattern rules and Multi-target pattern rules behave rather
differently. From `Pattern Intro':
Pattern rules may have more than one target. Unlike normal rules, this does
not act as many different rules with the same prerequisites and commands.
If a pattern rule has multiple targets, `make' knows that the rule's
commands are responsible for making all of the targets. The commands are
executed only once to make all the targets.
The intended use of the multi-target pattern rules was to avoid repeating the
identical recipe multiple times. The issue can be demonstrated with the
generation of documentation from pandoc source.
./xen.git$ touch docs/features/template.pandoc
./xen.git$ make -C docs/
# Regenerates html/features/template.html
./xen.git$ make -C docs/
# Regenerates txt/features/template.txt
./xen.git$ make -C docs/
# Regenerates pdf/features/template.pdf
To work around this, there need to be three distinct rules, so the execution
of one recipe doesn't short ciruit the others. To avoid copy&paste
duplication, introduce a metarule, and evalute it for each document target.
As $(PANDOC) is used to generate documentation from different source types,
the metarule can be extended to also encompas the rule to create pdfs from
markdown.

For top-level targets which use more than a single program to produce content
(txt already, pdf once pandoc is supported), these current checks are
unsuitable.
By moving the the install checks to the rules which actually use the programs,
it is now possible to build a subset of a top-level target depending on the
installed programs.
As a bonus, it removes the need to recurse for txt, man-pages and pdf targets.
A side effect of this is that every individual source which cannot be
generated will have a specific message logged, giving the file and program.
As such, these message are updated to consistently report the target file
which was not generated.
Finally, update "ifdef foo" to "ifneq($(foo),)" to be more resilient to errors
caused by having foo defined as an empty string.
