Hi,

When I try to compiling the document of libtraceevent with the fix I
mentioned in [1] applied, make doc-install fails with errors like

"/usr/bin/install: cannot stat 'libtraceevent-record_parse.3': No such
file or directory"

Checking the compiled documents I see a lot of tep_*.3 generated, and
some libtraceevent_*.html. However no libtraceevent_*.3.

$ ls Documentation/*3 | head
Documentation/libtraceevent.3
Documentation/tep_alloc.3
Documentation/tep_clear_flag.3
Documentation/tep_cmdline_pid.3
Documentation/tep_data_comm_from_pid.3
Documentation/tep_data_flags.3

Documentation/tep_data_pid_from_comm.3
Documentation/tep_data_preempt_count.3
Documentation/tep_data_type.3
ls Documentation/*html | head

Documentation/libtraceevent-cpus.html
Documentation/libtraceevent-endian_read.html
Documentation/libtraceevent-event_find.html
Documentation/libtraceevent-event_get.html
Documentation/libtraceevent-event_list.html
Documentation/libtraceevent-event_print.html
Documentation/libtraceevent-field_find.html
Documentation/libtraceevent-field_get_val.html
Documentation/libtraceevent-field_print.html

I also tried to port the Makefile from trace-cmd/Documentation to the
document dir, and it still only generates tep_*.3 files, so I feel this
is not the issue with the patch from [1].

As for my local environment, I have xmlto and asciidoc installed[2], but
not asciidoctor. I expect asciidoc could generate the documentations
like what it did in trace-cmd before.

Any idea if this is issue with my environment or it's something that
need to be implemented in the Makefile?


Hi Zamir,

Thanks a lot for looking into this. I took your advice and reverted my
blind copy of the Makefiles, scripts and include headers, and instead
copied over their full history from the Linux kernel Tools directory.

You can see that update no (which now includes the utilities.mak as well).

Can you see if this patch fixes your current issue?

Hi Steve,

I just tried compiling the document. IIUC with this patch, the man pages are generated. Most of them still have tep_ prefix. Not sure if this is intended so I'm posting the list of generated man page in gist as it's a bit long.

OTOH, I notice that a lot of generation tasks was executing during the doc-install phase. I'm really not familiar with man page compiling, so can you check if this is an intended way? I posted the doc-install log in the following link.

HTH.
