DESCRIPTION = f"""
This tool allows creating Python virtual environments for different
Sphinx versions that are supported by the Linux Kernel build system.
Besides creating the virtual environment, it can also test building
the documentation using "make htmldocs" (and/or other doc targets).
If called without "--versions" argument, it covers the versions shipped
on major distros, plus the lowest supported version:
{DEFAULT_VERS}
A typical usage is to run:
{SCRIPT} -m -l sphinx_builds.log
This will create one virtual env for the default version set and run
"make htmldocs" for each version, creating a log file with the
excecuted commands on it.
NOTE: The build time can be very long, specially on old versions. Also, there
is a known bug with Sphinx version 6.0.x: each subprocess uses a lot of
memory. That, together with "-jauto" may cause OOM killer to cause
failures at the doc generation. To minimize the risk, you may use the
"-a" command line parameter to constrain the built directories and/or
reduce the number of threads from "-jauto" to, for instance, "-j4":
{SCRIPT} -m -V 6.0.1 -a "SPHINXDIRS=process" "SPHINXOPTS='-j4'"
