[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 0/2] Rewrite 'live-block-ops.txt'; convert 'bitmaps.md' to rST
Posted by Kashyap Chamarthy 8 years, 3 months ago
v6: Only the 'live-block-operations.txt' doc is changed (refer the patch
    e-mail for its change log) -- addressed feedback from John Snow
v5: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-07/msg01368.html
v4: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-06/msg06395.html

Rewrite the 'live-block-ops.txt' document (after renaming it to
'live-block-operations.rst') in reStructuredText (rST) format.  Given
upstream QEMU's desire[*] to take advantage of the Sphinx + rST
framework to gerate its documentation:

    "Based on experience from the Linux kernel, QEMU's docs pipeline is
    going to be based on Sphinx [...] Sphinx is extensible and it is
    easy to add new input formats and input directives."

And as part of review, John Snow suggested[+] to link to the
'bitmaps.md' document.  So while at it, convert the 'bitmaps.md'
document also into rST syntax.

Then, moved both the documents ('live-block-operations.rst', and
'bitmaps.rst') to 'qemu/docs/interop' directory.  (Paolo explained the
term "interop" as: "management & interoperability with QEMU".)

That's the result of this series:

(1) Rewrite the 'live-block-ops.txt' document (for details, refer the
    commit message of the patch) in rST.

    Sphinx-generted HTML rendering:

(2) Convert the 'bitmaps.md' document to rST, as discussed on this[+]
    thread.
