41d0ad1d04 qapi: Rename visitor parameter @variants to @alternatives
A previous commit narrowed the type of .visit_alternate_type()
parameter @variants from QAPISchemaVariants to QAPISchemaAlternatives.
Rename it to @alternatives.

One of them passes @alternatives to helper function
gen_visit_alternate().  Rename its @variants parameter to
@alternatives as well.

The previous commit narrowed the type of .visit_object_type()

Rename it to @branches.

Same for .visit_object_type_flat().

A few of these pass @branches to helper functions:

and ._nodes_for_variant_when(), and
QAPISchemaGenVisitVisitor.visit_object_type() to
gen_visit_object_members().  Rename the helpers' @variants parameters

e51e80ccf6 sphinx/qapidoc: Drop code to generate doc for simple union branch
Commit 4e99f4b12c (qapi: Drop simple unions) eliminated implicitly
defined union branch types, except for the empty object type
'q_empty'.  QAPISchemaGenRSTVisitor._nodes_for_members() still has
code to generate documentation for implicitly defined union branch
types.  It does nothing for 'q_empty'.  Simplify.

fd62bff901 sphinx/qapidoc: Drop code to generate doc for simple union tag
QAPISchemaGenRSTVisitor._nodes_for_members() has a special case to
auto-generate documentation for a union tag member of implicit (enum)
type that lacks documentation.

This was useful for simple unions, where the tag member's type was
implicitly.  The only implicit enum type left today is 'QType'.  Not
worth a special case.  Drop.  No change to generated documentation.

1eeb432a95 doc/sphinx/hxtool.py: add optional label argument to SRST directive
We can't just embed labels directly into files like qemu-options.hx which
are included from multiple top-level rST files, because Sphinx sees the
labels as duplicate: https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/9707

So add an optional argument to the SRST directive which causes a label
of the form '.. _DOCNAME-HXFILE-LABEL:' to be emitted, where 'DOCNAME'
is the name of the top level rST file, 'HXFILE' is the filename of the
.hx file, and 'LABEL' is the text provided within the 'SRST()' directive.
Using the DOCNAME of the top-level rST document means that it is unique
even when the .hx file is included from two different documents, as is
the case for qemu-options.hx

Now where the Xen PV documentation refers to the documentation for the
-initrd command line option, it can emit a link directly to it as
'<system/invocation-qemu-options-initrd>'.

c375f05ef5 sphinx/qapidoc: Tidy up pylint warning raise-missing-from
Pylint advises:

    docs/sphinx/qapidoc.py:518:12: W0707: Consider explicitly re-raising using 'raise ExtensionError(str(err)) from err' (raise-missing-from)

>From its manual:

    Python's exception chaining shows the traceback of the current
    exception, but also of the original exception.  When you raise a
    new exception after another exception was caught it's likely that
    the second exception is a friendly re-wrapping of the first
    exception.  In such cases `raise from` provides a better link
    between the two tracebacks in the final error.

Makes sense, so do it.

ed8d95182b meson: Pass -j option to sphinx
Save a bit of build time by passing the number of jobs option to
sphinx.

We cannot use  the -j option from make because  meson does not support
setting build time parameters for custom targets. Use nproc instead or
the equivalent sphinx option "-j  auto", if that is available (version
>=1.7.0).

Also make sure our plugins support parallelism and report it properly
to sphinx. Particularly, implement the merge_domaindata method in
DBusDomain that is used to merge in data from other subprocesses.

f57e1d05bf sphinx/qapidoc: Do not emit TODO sections into user manuals
QAPI doc comments are for QMP users: they go into the "QEMU QMP
Reference Manual" and the "QEMU Storage Daemon QMP Reference Manual".

The doc comment TODO sections are for somebody else, namely for the
people who can do: developers.  Do not emit them into the user
manuals.

This elides the following TODOs:

* SchemaInfoCommand

  # TODO: @success-response (currently irrelevant, because it's QGA, not QMP)

  This is a note to developers adding introspection to the guest
  agent.  It makes no sense to users.

* @query-hotpluggable-cpus

  # TODO: Better documentation; currently there is none.

  This is a reminder for developers.  It doesn't help users.

* @device_add

  # TODO: This command effectively bypasses QAPI completely due to its
  #       "additional arguments" business.  It shouldn't have been added to
  #       the schema in this form.  It should be qapified properly, or
  #       replaced by a properly qapified command.

  Likewise.

Eliding them is an improvement.

364206640c docs/sphinx/kerneldoc.py: Honour --enable-werror
Currently, the kerneldoc Sphinx plugin doesn't honour the
--enable-werror configure option, so its warnings are never fatal.
This is because although we do pass sphinx-build the -W switch, the
warnings from kerneldoc are produced by the scripts/kernel-doc script
directly and don't go through Sphinx's "emit a warning" function.

When --enable-werror is in effect, pass sphinx-build an extra
argument -Dkerneldoc_werror=1.  The kerneldoc plugin can then use
this to determine whether it should be passing the kernel-doc script
-Werror.

We do this because there is no documented mechanism for
a Sphinx plugin to determine whether sphinx-build was
passed -W or not; if one is provided then we can switch to
that at a later date:

2668dc7b5d docs/sphinx: add sphinx modules to include D-Bus documentation
Add a new dbus-doc directive to import D-Bus interfaces documentation
from the introspection XML. The comments annotations follow the
gtkdoc/kerneldoc style, and should be formatted with reST.

Note: I realize after the fact that I was implementing those modules
with sphinx 4, and that we have much lower requirements. Instead of
lowering the features and code (removing type annotations etc), let's
have a warning in the documentation when the D-Bus modules can't be
used, and point to the source XML file in that case.

d806f89f87 qapidoc: introduce QAPISchemaIfCond.docgen()
Instead of building the condition documentation from a list of string,
use the result generated from QAPISchemaIfCond.docgen().

This changes the generated documentation from:
- COND1, COND2... (where COND1, COND2 are Literal nodes, and ',' is Text)
to:
- COND1 and COND2 (the whole string as a Literal node)

This will allow us to generate more complex conditions in the following
patches, such as "(COND1 and COND2) or COND3".

Adding back the differentiated formatting is left to the wish list.

46f49468c6 qapi/error: Repurpose QAPIError as an abstract base exception class

class that serves as the basis for all of our other custom exceptions,

This leaves QAPIError as a package-wide error class that's suitable for
any current or future errors.

(Right now, we don't have any errors that DON'T also want to specify a
Source location, but this MAY change. In these cases, a common abstract
ancestor would be desired.)

35f15acbc1 docs/sphinx/qapidoc.py: Handle change of QAPI's builtin module name
In commit e2bbc4eaa7 we changed the QAPI modules to name the built-in
module "./builtin" rather than None, but forgot to update the Sphinx
plugin. The effect of this was that when the plugin generated a dependency
file it was including a bogus dependency on a non-existent file named
"builtin", which meant that ninja would run Sphinx and rebuild all
the documentation every time even if nothing had changed.

Update the plugin to use the new name of the builtin module.

486966e4a4 scripts: kernel-doc: allow passing desired Sphinx C domain dialect
When kernel-doc is called via kerneldoc.py, there's no need to
auto-detect the Sphinx version, as the Sphinx module already
knows it. So, add an optional parameter to allow changing the
Sphinx dialect.

As kernel-doc can also be manually called, keep the auto-detection
logic if the parameter was not specified. On such case, emit
a warning if sphinx-build can't be found at PATH.

I ended using a suggestion from Joe for using a more readable
regex, instead of using a complex one with a hidden group like:

	m/^(\d+)\.(\d+)(?:\.?(\d+)?)/

in order to get the optional <patch> argument.

4078ee5469 docs/sphinx: Add new qapi-doc Sphinx extension
Some of our documentation is auto-generated from documentation
comments in the JSON schema.

For Sphinx, rather than creating a file to include, the most natural
way to handle this is to have a small custom Sphinx extension which
processes the JSON file and inserts documentation into the rST
file being processed.

This is the same approach that kerneldoc and hxtool use.

Sphinx 3.0 warns about this:

    Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name. [error at 21]
      struct MemoryListener

because it wants us to use the new-in-3.0 'c:struct' instead.

Plumb the Sphinx version through to the kernel-doc script
and use it to select 'c:struct' for newer versions than 3.0.

when we construct headings with the Sphinx hxtool extension.
This makes the table of contents look neater.

This only affects generation of documentation from qemu-options.hx,
which we will start doing in a later commit.

6803d6e9a7 docs/sphinx: Add new hxtool Sphinx extension
Some of our documentation includes sections which are created
by assembling fragments of texinfo from a .hx source file into
a .texi file, which is then included from qemu-doc.texi or
qemu-img.texi.

For Sphinx, rather than creating a file to include, the most natural
way to handle this is to have a small custom Sphinx extension which
reads the .hx file and process it.  So instead of:
 * makefile produces foo.texi from foo.hx
 * qemu-doc.texi says '@include foo.texi'
we have:
 * qemu-doc.rst says 'hxtool-doc:: foo.hx'
 * the Sphinx extension for hxtool has code that runs to handle that
   Sphinx directive which reads the .hx file and emits the appropriate
   documentation contents

This is pretty much the same way the kerneldoc extension works right
now. It also has the advantage that it should work for third-party
services like readthedocs that expect to build the docs directly with
sphinx rather than by invoking our makefiles.

In this commit we implement the hxtool extension.

Note that syntax errors in the rST fragments will be correctly
reported to the user with the filename and line number within the
hx file.

e2c546358f docs: import Linux kernel-doc script and extension
Import Linux's kernel-doc script as of commit 15e2544ed38a1e, as well
as the Sphinx extension to call kernel-doc according to the arguments
and parameters given to a reStructuredText directive.

The kernel-doc extension accepts a filename, which is relative to
the QEMU source tree root.  The extension also notifies Sphinx about the
document dependency on the file, causing the document to be rebuilt when
the file has been changed.

cd231e13bd sphinx: add qmp_lexer
Sphinx, through Pygments, does not like annotated json examples very
much. In some versions of Sphinx (1.7), it will render the non-json
portions of code blocks in red, but in newer versions (2.0) it will
throw an exception and not highlight the block at all. Though we can
suppress this warning, it doesn't bring back highlighting on non-strict
json blocks.

We can alleviate this by creating a custom lexer for QMP examples that
allows us to properly highlight these examples in a robust way, keeping
our directionality and elision notations.
