11qapidoc is a Sphinx extension that implements the qapi-doc directive
12
13The purpose of this extension is to read the documentation comments
14in QAPI schema files, and insert them all into the current document.
15
16It implements one new rST directive, "qapi-doc::".
17Each qapi-doc:: directive takes one argument, which is the
18pathname of the schema file to process, relative to the source tree.
19
20The docs/conf.py file must set the qapidoc_srctree config value to
21the root of the QEMU source tree.
22
23The Sphinx documentation on writing extensions is at:
24https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/development/index.html
