* kernel-doc: code reorganizationRandy Dunlap2011-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move 'main' code vs. subroutines around so that they are not so intermixed, for better readability/understanding (relative to Perl). It was messy to follow the primary flow of code execution with the code being mixed. Now the code begins with data initialization, followed by all subroutines, then ends with the main code execution. This is almost totally source code movement, with a few changes as needed for forward declarations.

* kernel-doc: escape xml for structsRandy Dunlap2010-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | scripts/kernel-doc was leaving unescaped '<', '>', and '&' in generated xml output for structs. This causes xml parser errors. Convert these characters to "&lt;", "&gt;", and "&amp;" as needed to prevent errors. Most of the conversion was already done; complete it just before output.

* docbook: warn on unused doc entriesJohannes Berg2010-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When you don't use !E or !I but only !F, then it's very easy to miss including some functions, structs etc. in documentation. To help finding which ones were missed, allow printing out the unused ones as warnings. For example, using this on mac80211 yields a lot of warnings like this: Warning: didn't use docs for DOC: mac80211 workqueue Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_max_queues Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_bss_change Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_bss_conf when generating the documentation for it.

* tracing: Add DEFINE_EVENT(), DEFINE_SINGLE_EVENT() support to docbookJason Baron2009-12-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The introduction of the new 'DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS()' obviates the need for the 'TRACE_EVENT()' macro in some cases. Thus, docbook style comments that used to live with 'TRACE_EVENT()' are now moved to 'DEFINE_EVENT()'. Thus, we need to make the docbook system understand the new 'DEFINE_EVENT()' macro. In addition I've tried to futureproof the patch, by also adding support for 'DEFINE_SINGLE_EVENT()', since there has been discussion about renaming: TRACE_EVENT() -> DEFINE_SINGLE_EVENT(). Without this patch the tracepoint docbook fails to build. I've verified that this patch correctly builds the tracepoint docbook which currently covers signals, and irqs.

This patch teaches create_parameterlist in kernel-doc to parse this type of function pointer definition, but is it the right way to fix the problem ? The problem only seems to occur in blk-core.c. However with the patch applied, kernel-doc finds the correct parameter description for the callback in blk_end_request_callback, which is doesn't normally. I thought it would be a bit odd to change to code to use the more normal form of function pointers just to get the documentation to work, so I fixed kernel-doc instead - even though this is teaching it to understand code that might go away (The comment for blk_end_request_callback says that it should not be used and will removed at some point).

* kernel-doc: fix doc blocks and htmlRandy Dunlap2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Johannes Berg reports (Thanks!) that &struct names are not highlighted in html output format when they are inside a DOC: block. DOC: blocks were not escaped thru xml_escape() like other kernel-doc comments were. Fixed that. However, that left a problem with <p> ($blankline_html) being processed thru xml_escape(), converting it to &lt;p&gt;, which isn't good for the generated html output (the <p> should remain unchanged), so this patch also introduces the notion of "local" kernel-doc meta-characters ('\\\\mnemonic:'), which are converted to html just before writing the stream to its output file. Please report any problems that you (anyone) see in "highlighting" in any output mode (text, man, html, xml). Also update copyright to include me.

* kernel-doc: handle arrays with arithmetic expressions as initializersBorislav Petkov2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a different approach here's a patch that handles the special case of composite arithmetic expressions in array size initializers. With it, prior to pushing the split strings on the @first_arg array, I split the keywords before the array name as before and then keep the array name along with the subscript expression as a single whole element which gets pushed last. In this manner, kernel-doc produces correct output without removing whitespaces which makes the array subscripts unreadable in the docs.
