[hans@shalem ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/sphinx-apidoc
python3-sphinx-4.4.0-1.fc36.noarch

I doubt this makes a difference though.

So I did some digging and the trick for reproducing any ABI
related warnings is to touch the .rst file which has the
"kernel-abi" reST directive (1) for the ABI subdir you want
to regenerate the ABI docs for.

So in this case I did:

touch Documentation/admin-guide/abi-testing.rst
make htmldocs &> log

And now I can see the warnings. I'll prepare a fix for this.

Looking at Documentation/Makefile I also learned that you
can also do this:

scripts/get_abi.pl validate --dir Documentation/ABI

Which results in a different set of warnings...

Regards,

Hans


1) Implemented in Documentation/sphinx/kernel_abi.py
