This patch makes the following updates to the `QualGroup.rst`
documentation:
✅ 1. Replace slide links with Google Drive URLs
Replaced links to slide PDFs previously hosted in `llvm/docs/qual-wg/`
with publicly accessible links to the same files stored on Google Drive.
✅ 2. Remove duplicated "Current Topics & Backlog" section
Removed an accidental duplication of the "Current Topics & Backlog"
section to improve clarity and structure.
✅ 3. Add "AI Transcription Policy" section
Introduced a dedicated section documenting the group's practices and
expectations regarding AI-based auto-transcription during sync-up
meetings. Includes purpose, consent practices, retention details, and
how participants can opt out or raise concerns.
✅ 4. Remove `qual-wg` subfolder from `docs`
Removed the now-unused `llvm/docs/qual-wg` directory after migrating
slide hosting off-repo. No longer needed for qualification group
documentation.
✅ 5. Revision of the introduction
Updated sentence to reflect the most current and widely relevant safety
standards: adding IEC 61508 and IEC 62304 for broader applicability, and
replacing EN 50128 (older standard in railways) by EN 50716 for
correctness.

LLVM Documentation
==================
LLVM's documentation is written in reStructuredText, a lightweight
plaintext markup language (file extension `.rst`). While the
reStructuredText documentation should be quite readable in source form, it
is mostly meant to be processed by the Sphinx documentation generation
system to create HTML pages which are hosted on <https://llvm.org/docs/> and
updated after every commit. Manpage output is also supported, see below.
If you instead would like to generate and view the HTML locally, install
Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/> and then do:
cd <build-dir>
cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=true -DSPHINX_OUTPUT_HTML=true <src-dir>
make -j3 docs-llvm-html
$BROWSER <build-dir>/docs/html/index.html
The mapping between reStructuredText files and generated documentation is
`docs/Foo.rst` <-> `<build-dir>/docs//html/Foo.html` <-> `https://llvm.org/docs/Foo.html`.
If you are interested in writing new documentation, you will want to read
`SphinxQuickstartTemplate.rst` which will get you writing documentation
very fast and includes examples of the most important reStructuredText
markup syntax.
Manpage Output
===============
Building the manpages is similar to building the HTML documentation. The
primary difference is to use the `man` makefile target, instead of the
default (which is `html`). Sphinx then produces the man pages in the
directory `<build-dir>/docs/man/`.
cd <build-dir>
cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=true -DSPHINX_OUTPUT_MAN=true <src-dir>
make -j3 docs-llvm-man
man -l <build-dir>/docs/man/FileCheck.1
The correspondence between .rst files and man pages is
`docs/CommandGuide/Foo.rst` <-> `<build-dir>/docs//man/Foo.1`.
These .rst files are also included during HTML generation so they are also
viewable online (as noted above) at e.g.
`https://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/Foo.html`.
Checking links
==============
The reachability of external links in the documentation can be checked by
running:
cd llvm/docs/
sphinx-build -b linkcheck . _build/lintcheck/
# report will be generated in _build/lintcheck/output.txt
Doxygen page Output
==============
Install doxygen <https://www.doxygen.nl/download.html> and dot2tex <https://dot2tex.readthedocs.io/en/latest>.
cd <build-dir>
cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_DOXYGEN=On <llvm-top-src-dir>
make doxygen-llvm # for LLVM docs
make doxygen-clang # for clang docs
It will generate html in
<build-dir>/docs/doxygen/html # for LLVM docs
<build-dir>/tools/clang/docs/doxygen/html # for clang docs
