The source file used to generate configure is called "configure.ac". The program used to generate configure from configure.ac is autoconf. The source file used to generate Makefile is called "Makefile.am". The program used to generate Makefile from Makefile.am is automake. (Slightly simplified explanation.) So I suppose suitable documentation would be "info autoconf", and "info automake".
