Makes sense, but in case of documentation, this is a little more complex than that. Btw, the theme used when building html by default[1] has a search box (written in Javascript) that could be able to find multi-line patterns, working somewhat similar to "git grep foo -a bar".

Let's take one step back, in order to return to the intents of this UTF-8, as the discussions here are not centered into the patches, but instead, on what to do and why. - This discussion started originally at linux-doc ML. While discussing about an issue when machine's locale was not set to UTF-8 on a build VM, we discovered that some converted docs ended with BOM characters. Those specific changes were introduced by some of my convert patches, probably converted via pandoc. So, I went ahead in order to check what other possible weird things were introduced by the conversion, where several scripts and tools were used on files that had already a different markup. I actually checked the current UTF-8 issues, and asked people at linux-doc to comment what of those are valid usecases, and what should be replaced by plain ASCII. Basically, this is the current situation (at docs/docs-next), for the ReST files under Documentation/, excluding translations is: 1. Spaces and BOM - U+00a0 (' '): NO-BREAK SPACE - U+feff (''): ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE (BOM) Based on the discussions there and on this thread, those should be dropped, as BOM is useless and NO-BREAK SPACE can cause problems at the html/pdf output; 2. Symbols - U+00a9 ('©'): COPYRIGHT SIGN - U+00ac ('¬'): NOT SIGN - U+00ae ('®'): REGISTERED SIGN - U+00b0 ('°'): DEGREE SIGN - U+00b1 ('±'): PLUS-MINUS SIGN - U+00b2 ('²'): SUPERSCRIPT TWO - U+00b5 ('µ'): MICRO SIGN - U+03bc ('μ'): GREEK SMALL LETTER MU - U+00b7 ('·'): MIDDLE DOT - U+00bd ('½'): VULGAR FRACTION ONE HALF - U+2122 ('™'): TRADE MARK SIGN - U+2264 ('≤'): LESS-THAN OR EQUAL TO - U+2265 ('≥'): GREATER-THAN OR EQUAL TO - U+2b0d ('⬍'): UP DOWN BLACK ARROW Those seem OK on my eyes. On a side note, both MICRO SIGN and GREEK SMALL LETTER MU are used several docs to represent microseconds, micro-volts and micro-ampères. If we write an orientation document, it probably makes sense to recommend using MICRO SIGN on such cases. 3. Latin - U+00c7 ('Ç'): LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C WITH CEDILLA - U+00df ('ß'): LATIN SMALL LETTER SHARP S - U+00e1 ('á'): LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH ACUTE - U+00e4 ('ä'): LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS - U+00e6 ('æ'): LATIN SMALL LETTER AE - U+00e7 ('ç'): LATIN SMALL LETTER C WITH CEDILLA - U+00e9 ('é'): LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE - U+00ea ('ê'): LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH CIRCUMFLEX - U+00eb ('ë'): LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH DIAERESIS - U+00f3 ('ó'): LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH ACUTE - U+00f4 ('ô'): LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH CIRCUMFLEX - U+00f6 ('ö'): LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH DIAERESIS - U+00f8 ('ø'): LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH STROKE - U+00fa ('ú'): LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH ACUTE - U+00fc ('ü'): LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH DIAERESIS - U+00fd ('ý'): LATIN SMALL LETTER Y WITH ACUTE - U+011f ('ğ'): LATIN SMALL LETTER G WITH BREVE - U+0142 ('ł'): LATIN SMALL LETTER L WITH STROKE Those should be kept as well, as they're used for non-English names. 4. arrows and box drawing symbols: - U+2191 ('↑'): UPWARDS ARROW - U+2192 ('→'): RIGHTWARDS ARROW - U+2193 ('↓'): DOWNWARDS ARROW - U+2500 ('─'): BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT HORIZONTAL - U+2502 ('│'): BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT VERTICAL - U+2514 ('└'): BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT UP AND RIGHT - U+251c ('├'): BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT VERTICAL AND RIGHT Also should be kept. In summary, based on the discussions we have so far, I suspect that there's not much to be discussed for the above cases. So, I'll post a v3 of this series, changing only: - U+00a0 (' '): NO-BREAK SPACE - U+feff (''): ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE (BOM) --- Now, this specific patch series address also this extra case: 5. curly commas: - U+2018 ('‘'): LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK - U+2019 ('’'): RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK - U+201c ('“'): LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK - U+201d ('”'): RIGHT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK IMO, those should be replaced by ASCII commas: ' and ". The rationale is simple: - most were introduced during the conversion from Docbook, markdown and LaTex; - they don't add any extra value, as using "foo" of “foo” means the same thing; - Sphinx already use "fancy" commas at the output. I guess I will put this on a separate series, as this is not a bug fix, but just a cleanup from the conversion work. I'll re-post those cleanups on a separate series, for patch per patch review. --- The remaining cases are future work, outside the scope of this v2: 6. Hyphen/Dashes and ellipsis - U+2212 ('−'): MINUS SIGN - U+00ad (''): SOFT HYPHEN - U+2010 ('‐'): HYPHEN Those three are used on places where a normal ASCII hyphen/minus should be used instead. There are even a couple of C files which use them instead of '-' on comments. IMO are fixes/cleanups from conversions and bad cut-and-paste. - U+2013 ('–'): EN DASH - U+2014 ('—'): EM DASH - U+2026 ('…'): HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS Those are auto-replaced by Sphinx from "--", "---" and "...", respectively. I guess those are a matter of personal preference about weather using ASCII or UTF-8. My personal preference (and Ted seems to have a similar opinion) is to let Sphinx do the conversion. For those, I intend to post a separate series, to be reviewed patch per patch, as this is really a matter of personal taste. Hardly we'll reach a consensus here. 7. math symbols: - U+00d7 ('×'): MULTIPLICATION SIGN This one is used mostly do describe video resolutions, but this is on a smaller changeset than the ones that use "x" letter. - U+2217 ('∗'): ASTERISK OPERATOR This is used only here: Documentation/filesystems/ext4/blockgroup.rst:filesystem size to 2^21 ∗ 2^27 = 2^48bytes or 256TiB. Probably added by some conversion tool. IMO, this one should also be replaced by an ASCII asterisk. I guess I'll post a patch for the ASTERISK OPERATOR. Thanks, Mauro

Another person reported it at linux-doc; 2. I fully agree with you that the building system should work fine whatever locate the machine has; 3. Sphinx supported charset for the REST input and its output is UTF-8. Despite of that, it seems that there are some issues at the building tool set, at least under certain circunstances. One of the hypothesis that it was mentioned there is that the Sphinx logger crashes when it tries to print an UTF-8 message when the machine's locale is not UTF-8. That's said, I tried forcing a non-UTF-8 on some tests I did to try to reproduce, but the build went fine. So, I was not able to reproduce the issue. This series doesn't address the issue. It is just a side effect of the discussions, where, while trying to understand the bug, we noticed several UTF-8 characters introduced during the conversion that were't the original author's intent. So, with regards to the original but report, if I find a way to reproduce it and to address it, I'll post a separate series. If you want to discuss this issue further, let's not discuss here, but instead, at the linux-doc thread: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20210506103913.GE6564@kitsune.suse.cz/ > > > > we discovered that some converted docs ended > > with BOM characters.

That's indeed a good point. It would be interesting to have more opinions with that matter. There are a couple of things to consider: 1. It is (usually) trivial to discover what document produced a certain page at the documentation. For instance, if you want to know where the text under this file came from, or to grep a text from it: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.html You can click at the "View page source" button at the first line. It will show the .rst file used to produce it: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/_sources/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst.txt 2. If all you want is to search for a text inside the docs, you can click at the "Search docs" box, which is part of the Read the Docs theme. 3. Kernel has several extensions for Sphinx, in order to make life easier for Kernel developers: Documentation/sphinx/automarkup.py Documentation/sphinx/cdomain.py Documentation/sphinx/kernel_abi.py Documentation/sphinx/kernel_feat.py Documentation/sphinx/kernel_include.py Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py Documentation/sphinx/kernellog.py Documentation/sphinx/kfigure.py Documentation/sphinx/load_config.py Documentation/sphinx/maintainers_include.py Documentation/sphinx/rstFlatTable.py Those (in particular automarkup and kerneldoc) will also dynamically change things during ReST conversion, which may cause grep to not work. 5. some PDF tools like evince will match curly commas if you type an ASCII comma on their search boxes. 6. Some developers prefer to only deal with the files inside the Kernel tree. Those are very unlikely to do grep with curly aspas. My opinion on that matter is that we should make life easier for developers to grep on text files, as the ones using the web interface are already served by the search box in html format or by tools like evince. So, my vote here is to keep aspas as plain ASCII. > > > The remaining cases are future work, outside the scope of this v2: > > > > 6.

While I don't have any strong preferences here, there's something that annoys me with regards to EM/EN DASH: With the monospaced fonts I'm using here - both at my e-mailer and on my terminals, both EM and EN DASH are displayed look *exactly* the same. > > > 7. math symbols: > > > > - U+00d7 ('×'): MULTIPLICATION SIGN > > > > This one is used mostly do describe video resolutions, but this is > > on a smaller changeset than the ones that use "x" letter. > > I think standardising on × for video resolutions in documentation would > make it look better and be easier to read. > > > > > - U+2217 ('∗'): ASTERISK OPERATOR > > > > This is used only here: > > Documentation/filesystems/ext4/blockgroup.rst:filesystem size to 2^21 ∗ 2^27 = 2^48bytes or 256TiB. > > > > Probably added by some conversion tool.

This series contain basically a cleanup from all those years of converting files to ReST. During the conversion period, several tools like LaTeX, pandoc, DocBook and some specially-written scripts were used in order to convert existing documents. Such conversion tools - plus some text editor like LibreOffice or similar - have a set of rules that turns some typed ASCII characters into UTF-8 alternatives, for instance converting commas into curly commas and adding non-breakable spaces. All of those are meant to produce better results when the text is displayed in HTML or PDF formats. While it is perfectly fine to use UTF-8 characters in Linux, and specially at the documentation, it is better to stick to the ASCII subset on such particular case, due to a couple of reasons: 1. it makes life easier for tools like grep; 2. they easier to edit with the some commonly used text/source code editors. Also, Sphinx already do such conversion automatically outside literal blocks, as described at: https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/user/smartquotes.html In this series, the following UTF-8 symbols are replaced: - U+00a0 (' '): NO-BREAK SPACE - U+00ad (''): SOFT HYPHEN - U+00b4 ('´'): ACUTE ACCENT - U+00d7 ('×'): MULTIPLICATION SIGN - U+2010 ('‐'): HYPHEN - U+2018 ('‘'): LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK - U+2019 ('’'): RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK - U+201c ('“'): LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK - U+201d ('”'): RIGHT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK - U+2212 ('−'): MINUS SIGN - U+2217 ('∗'): ASTERISK OPERATOR - U+feff (''): ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE (BOM) --- v2: - removed EM/EN DASH conversion from this patchset; - removed a few fixes, as those were addressed on a separate series. PS.: The first version of this series was posted with a different name: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1620641727.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org/ I also changed the patch texts, in order to better describe the patches goals.
