This series adds the ability for the new QAPIDoc system to generate "Returns:" documentation based on the return type declared in the Schema even when no explicit documentation is found in the QAPI source. As a result and as an immediate cleanup, trivial return statements are removed and remaining Return documentation is revised to avoid re-stating the return type, which is always generated automatically.
v6: ... actually read Markus' algorithm and then did that. Added a few TODO: separators to improve placement Still kind of wonky: The reason x-debug-block-dirty-bitmap-sha256 appears to generate oddly is because the "Arguments:" section is *also* being generated, and it occurs *after* parsing and schema generation, entirely within the doc generator. Mea Culpa: can we address this later? v5: rebased, implemented Markus' preferred insertion algorithm v4: rebased on origin/master (2025-06-12) v3: rebased on top of python-qapi-linting (v4) pull request; removed commits that are no longer needed. v2: fix multi-return-sections bug :( John Snow (4): docs/qapi-domain: add return-nodesc docs, qapi: generate undocumented return sections qapi: remove trivial "Returns:" sections qapi: rephrase return docs to avoid type name docs/devel/qapi-domain.rst | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ docs/sphinx/qapi_domain.py | 8 ++++++++ docs/sphinx/qapidoc.py | 14 ++++++++------ qapi/audio.json | 2 -- qapi/block-core.json | 14 +++----------- qapi/block-export.json | 2 +- qapi/block.json | 2 +- qapi/char.json | 8 -------- qapi/control.json | 5 ++--- qapi/cryptodev.json | 2 -- qapi/dump.json | 5 ++--- qapi/introspect.json | 6 +++--- qapi/job.json | 2 +- qapi/machine.json | 24 ++---------------------- qapi/migration.json | 12 ++---------- qapi/misc-i386.json | 12 +----------- qapi/misc.json | 12 ++---------- qapi/net.json | 2 +- qapi/pci.json | 2 +- qapi/qdev.json | 3 +-- qapi/qom.json | 8 +++----- qapi/rocker.json | 4 ---- qapi/run-state.json | 2 -- qapi/stats.json | 2 +- qapi/tpm.json | 4 ---- qapi/trace.json | 2 +- qapi/ui.json | 10 +--------- qapi/virtio.json | 8 +++----- qapi/yank.json | 2 +- scripts/qapi/parser.py | 35 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ scripts/qapi/schema.py | 3 +++ 31 files changed, 117 insertions(+), 130 deletions(-) -- 2.50.0
