Damjan Marion a3d5986a35 vlib rename vlib_frame_args(...) to vlib_frame_scalar_args(..)
Typically we have scalar_size == 0, so it doesn't matter
but vlib_frame_args was providing pointer to scalar frame
data, not vector data. To avoid future confusion function
is renamed to vlib_frame_scalar_args(...)

Building VPP Documents

These instructions show how the VPP documentation sources are built.

To build your files, you can either Create a Virtual Environment using
virtualenv, which installs all the required applications for you.

Create a Virtual Environment using virtualenv
============================

For more information on how to use the Python virtual environment check
out https://packaging.python.org/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtualenv

Get the Documents
------------------------------

For example start with a clone of the vpp.

$ git clone https://gerrit.fd.io/r/vpp
$ cd vpp

Install the virtual environment
----------------------------------------------

$ python -m pip install --user virtualenv 
$ python -m virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip install -r docs/etc/requirements.txt
$ cd docs

Which installs all the required applications into it's own, isolated,
virtual environment, so as to not interfere with other builds that may
use different versions of software.

Build the html files
----------------------------

Be sure you are in your vpp/docs directory, since that is where Sphinx will
look for your conf.py file, and build the documents into an index.html file

$ make html

View the results
------------------------

If there are no errors during the build process, you should now have an
index.html file in your vpp/docs/_build/html directory, which you can
then view in your browser.
