Peter Anvin" <hpa@...or.com>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...hat.com>, Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>, x86@...nel.org Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Add Documentation/features to admin-guide and x86 Jon, Greg & all: Not sure what tree this would fit better. The first 2 patches on this series reimplement the logic at: Documentation/features/list-arch.sh I opted to not remove the old script, as someone could depend on its specific format. The new script does the same with: ./scripts/get_feat.pl current The difference is that it outputs with using ascii table artwork. The way it works is that it parse all feature files and produce 3 different types of contents, depending on its arguments: - a feature x arch matrix: ./scripts/get_feat.pl rest - a per-architecture feature table: ./scripts/get_feat.pl current or ./scripts/get_feat.pl rest --arch=arm64 - a per-feature table: ./scripts/get_feat.pl rest --feat=perf-regs All outputs are compatible with the ReST format. Patch 3 adds a new Sphinx plugin with handles its output. Patch 4 adds the feature x arch matrix at the admin-guide. Patch 4 also adds the features supported on x86 at the x86 arch guide. IMHO, it makes sense to have a similar table on all other architectures, but the best is to wait for the next Kernel version, in order to see what arch conversion files got included. So far, I didn't add the per-feature table anywhere.
