Yet, running it when debugging troubles is a bad idea, so, when calling directly via command line, except if "-j" is splicitly requested, it will serialize the build. With such change, a PDF doc builds now takes around 5 minutes on a Ryzen 9 machine with 32 cpu threads: # Explicitly paralelize both Sphinx and LaTeX pdf builds $ make cleandocs; time scripts/sphinx-build-wrapper pdfdocs -j 33 real 5m17.901s user 15m1.499s sys 2m31.482s # Use POSIX jobserver to paralelize both sphinx-build and LaTeX $ make cleandocs; time make pdfdocs real 5m22.369s user 15m9.076s sys 2m31.419s # Serializes PDF build, while keeping Sphinx parallelized. # it is equivalent of passing -jauto via command line $ make cleandocs; time scripts/sphinx-build-wrapper pdfdocs real 11m20.901s user 13m2.910s sys 1m44.553s Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab --- tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper | 158 +++++++++++++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 117 insertions(+), 41 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper b/tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrap= per index c318af5f2af1..c5fcc448a275 100755 --- a/tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper +++ b/tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper @@ -52,6 +52,8 @@ import shutil import subprocess import sys =20 +from concurrent import futures + from lib.python_version import PythonVersion =20 LIB_DIR =3D "../../scripts/lib" @@ -282,6 +284,82 @@ class SphinxBuilder: except (OSError, IOError) as e: print(f"Warning: Failed to copy CSS: {e}", file=3Dsys.stderr) =20 + def build_pdf_file(self, latex_cmd, from_dir, path): + """Builds a single pdf file using latex_cmd""" + try: + subprocess.run(latex_cmd + [path], + cwd=3Dfrom_dir, check=3DTrue) + + return True + except subprocess.CalledProcessError: + return False + + def pdf_parallel_build(self, tex_suffix, latex_cmd, tex_files, n_jobs): + """Build PDF files in parallel if possible""" + builds =3D {} + build_failed =3D False + max_len =3D 0 + has_tex =3D False + + # + # LaTeX PDF error code is almost useless for us: + # any warning makes it non-zero.
