The ABI documentation looks a little bit better if it starts
with the contents of the README is placed at the beginning.
Move it to the beginning of the ABI chapter. While here, improve
the README text and change the title that will be shown at the
html/pdf output to be coherent with both ABI file contents and
with the generated documentation output.

The example code in Documentation/driver-api/nvdimm/nvdimm.rst contained a

Kernel-doc has an obscure logic that uses an external file
to map files via a .tmp_filelist.txt file stored at the current
directory. The rationale for such code predates git time,
as it was added on Kernel v2.4.5.5, with the following description:
# 26/05/2001 - Support for separate source and object trees.
# Return error code.
# Keith Owens <kaos@ocs.com.au>
from commit 396a6123577d ("v2.4.5.4 -> v2.4.5.5") at the historic
tree:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/history/history.git/
Support for separate source and object trees is now done on a different
way via make O=<object>.
There's no logic to create such file, so it sounds to me that this is
just dead code.
So, drop it.

Mauro says:
This series replace get_abi.pl with a Python version.
I originally started it due to some issues I noticed when searching for
ABI symbols. While I could just go ahead and fix the already existing
script, I noticed that the script maintainance didn't have much care over
all those years, probably because it is easier to find Python programmers
those days.
Also, the code is complex and was not using modules or classes and
were using lots of global variables.
So, I decided to rewrite it in Python. I started with a manual conversion
for each function. Yet, to avoid future maintainership issues, I opted to
divide the main code on three classes, each on a sepaparate file.
Just like the original RFC, I opted to keep the Sphinx kernel-abi module
on three different phases:
- call get_abi.py as an exec file;
- import AbiParser on a minimal integration scenario;
- cleanup the code to avoid needing to parse line numbers from the text.
This way, if something goes wrong, it would be easier to just revert any
offending patches, It also provides a better rationale about what each
logical change is doing.
The initial patches on this series do some preparation work and
cleans some ABI symbol bugs that lack ":" delimiter.
The undefined logic is complex and has lots of magic on it.
Implement it, using the same algorithm we have at get_abi.pl. Yet,
some tweaks to optimize performance and to make the code simpler
were added here:
- at the perl version, the tree graph had loops, so we had to
use BFS to traverse it. On this version, the graph is a tree,
so, it simplifies the what group for sysfs aliases;
- the logic which splits regular expressions into subgroups
was re-written to make it faster;
- it may optionally use multiple processes to search for symbol
matches;
- it has some additional debug levels.

Despite being introduced on Python 3.6, the original implementation
was too limited: it doesn't accept anything but the argument.
Even on python 3.10.12, support was still limited, as more complex
operations cause SyntaxError:

Sphinx logging system doesn't like warnings during module load,
as it understands that such logs are produced at the wrong time:

Now that all ABI files are handled together, we can add a feature
at automarkup for it to generate cross-references for ABI symbols.
The cross-reference logic can produce references for all existing
files, except for README (as this is not parsed).
For symbols, they need to be an exact match of what it is
described at the docs, which is not always true due to wildcards.
If symbols at /sys /proc and /config are identical, a cross-reference
will be used.

Right now, the logic parses ABI files on 4 steps, one for each
directory. While this is fine in principle, by doing that, not
all symbol cross-references will be created.
Change the logic to do the parsing only once in order to get

Instead of printing all results line per line, use an interactor

This won't change much when using it via command line, but it
will help Sphinx integration by providing an interactor that

The get_abi.pl script is requiring some care, but it seems that
the number of changes on it since when I originally wrote it
was not too high.
Maintaining perl scripts without using classes requires a higher
efforted than on python, due to global variables management.
Also, it sounds easier to find python developer those days than
perl ones.
As a plus, using a Python class to handle ABI allows a better
integration with Sphinx extensions, allowing, for instance,
to let automarkup to generate cross-references for ABI
symbols.
With that in mind, rewrite the core of get_abi.pl in Python,
using classes, to help producing documentation. This will
allow a better integration in the future with the Sphinx
ABI extension.
The algorithms used there are the same as the ones in Perl,
with a couple of cleanups to remove redundant variables and
to help with cross-reference generation. While doing that,
remove some code that were important in the past, where
ABI files weren't using ReST format.
Some minor improvements were added like using a fixed seed
when generating ABI keys for duplicated names, making its
results reproductible.
The end script is a little bit faster than the original one
(tested on a machine with ssd disks). That's probably because
we're now using only pre-compiled regular expressions, and it
is using string replacement methods instead of regex where
possible.
The new version is a little bit more conservative when
converting text to cross-references to avoid adding them into
literal blocks.
To ensure that the ReST output is parsing all variables
and files properly, the end result was compared using diff
with the one produced by the perl script and showed no regressions.
There are minor improvements at the results, as it now
properly groups What on some special cases. It also better
escape some XREF names.

Such scripts may have regular expressions, which would make the

so skipping them is OK.

Commit 3775fc538f ("PM: sleep: core: Synchronize runtime PM status of
parents and children") exposed an issue related to simple_pm_bus_pm_ops
that uses pm_runtime_force_suspend() and pm_runtime_force_resume() as
bus type PM callbacks for the noirq phases of system-wide suspend and
resume.
The problem is that pm_runtime_force_suspend() does not distinguish
runtime-suspended devices from devices for which runtime PM has never
been enabled, so if it sees a device with runtime PM status set to
RPM_ACTIVE, it will assume that runtime PM is enabled for that device
and so it will attempt to suspend it with the help of its runtime PM
callbacks which may not be ready for that. As it turns out, this
causes simple_pm_bus_runtime_suspend() to crash due to a NULL pointer
dereference.
Another problem related to the above commit and simple_pm_bus_pm_ops is
that setting runtime PM status of a device handled by the latter to
RPM_ACTIVE will actually prevent it from being resumed because
pm_runtime_force_resume() only resumes devices with runtime PM status
set to RPM_SUSPENDED.
To mitigate these issues, do not allow power.set_active to propagate
beyond the parent of the device with DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND set that
will need to be resumed, which should be a sufficient stop-gap for the
time being, but they will need to be properly addressed in the future
because in general during system-wide resume it is necessary to resume
all devices in a dependency chain in which at least one device is going
to be resumed.
