* docs: move generic-loader documentation into the main manualAlex Bennée2021-03-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | We might as well surface this useful information in the manual so users can find it easily. It is a fairly simple conversion to rst with the only textual fixes being QemuOps to QemuOpts.

| | | | | | | | | | | Otherwise there is a chance that new deprecated features get added to the list of removed features at the end of the file by accident. It's way less confusing if the removed features reside in a separate file.

* qemu-block-drivers: Convert to rSTPeter Maydell2020-01-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The qemu-block-drivers documentation is currently in docs/qemu-block-drivers.texi in Texinfo format, which we present to the user as: * a qemu-block-drivers manpage * a section of the main qemu-doc HTML documentation Convert the documentation to rST format, and present it to the user as: * a qemu-block-drivers manpage * part of the system/ Sphinx manual This follows the same pattern we've done for qemu-ga and qemu-nbd. We have to drop a cross-reference from the documentation of the -cdrom option back to the qemu-block-drivers documentation, since they're no longer within the same texinfo document. As noted in a comment, the manpage output is slightly compromised due to limitations in Sphinx. In an ideal world, the HTML output would have the various headings like 'Disk image file formats' as top-level section headings (which then appear in the overall system manual's table-of-contents), and it would not have the section headings which make sense only for the manpage like 'synopsis', 'description', and 'see also'. Unfortunately, the mechanism Sphinx provides for restricting pieces of documentation is limited to the point of being flawed: the 'only::' directive is implemented as a filter that is applied at a very late stage in the document processing pipeline, rather than as an early equivalent of an #ifdef. This means that Sphinx's process of identifying which section heading markup styles are which levels of heading gets confused if the 'only::' directive contains section headings which would affect the heading-level of a later heading. I have opted to prioritise making the HTML format look better, with the compromise being that in the manpage the 'Disk image file formats' &c headings are top-level headings rather than being sub-headings under the traditional 'Description' top-level section title.
