In Rust 1.56.0 [1], rustdoc introduced the "jump to definition"
feature [2], i.e. the unstable flag `--generate-link-to-definition`.
It adds links to the source view of the documentation.
For instance, in the source view of `rust/kernel/sync.rs`, for this code:
impl Default for LockClassKey {
fn default() -> Self {
Self::new()
}
}
It will add three hyperlinks:
- `Default` points to the rendered "Trait `core::default::Default`"
page (not the source view, since it goes to another crate, though
this may change).
- `LockClassKey` points to the `pub struct LockClassKey(...);` line
in the same page, highlighting the line number.
- `Self::new()` points to the `pub const fn new() -> Self { ... }`
associated function, highlighting its line numbers (i.e. for the
full function).
This makes the source view more useful and a bit closer to the experience
in e.g. the Elixir Cross Referencer [3].
I have provisionally enabled it for rust.docs.kernel.org [4] -- one can
take a look at the source view there for an example of how it looks like.
Thus enable it.
