2007-07-19kernel-doc: fix leading dot in man-mode outputRandy Dunlap
If a parameter description begins with a '.', this indicates a "request" for "man" mode output (*roff), so it needs special handling. Problem case is in include/asm-i386/atomic.h for function atomic_add_unless(): * @u: ...unless v is equal to u. This parameter description is currently not printed in man mode output.

2007-05-08kernel-doc: handle arrays with arithmetic expressions as initializersBorislav Petkov
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.

2006-06-25[PATCH] kernel-doc: warn on malformed function docs.Randy Dunlap
When the verbose (-v) option is used with scripts/kernel-doc, this option reports when the kernel-doc format is malformed and apparently contains function description lines before function parameters. In these cases, the kernel-doc script will print something like: Warning(filemap.c:335): contents before sections I have fixed the problems in mm/filemap.c and added lots of kernel-doc to that file (posted to the linux-mm mailing list Mon. 2006-June-12). The real goal (as requested by Andrew Morton) is to allow the short function description to be more than one line long. This patch is both a kernel-doc checker and a tool en route to that goal.

2006-06-25[PATCH] kernel-doc: drop leading space in sectionsRandy Dunlap
Drop leading space of kernel-doc section contents. "Section" data (contents) are split from the section header (e.g., Note: below is a section header: * Note: list_empty on entry does not return true after this, the entry is * in an undefined state. ). Currently the data/contents begins with a space and is left that way, which causes it to look bad when printed (in text mode; see example below), so just remove the leading space.

2005-05-01[PATCH] DocBook: changes and extensions to the kernel documentationPavel Pisa
I have recompiled Linux kernel 2.6.11.5 documentation for me and our university students again. The documentation could be extended for more sources which are equipped by structured comments for recent 2.6 kernels. I have tried to proceed with that task. I have done that more times from 2.6.0 time and it gets boring to do same changes again and again. Linux kernel compiles after changes for i386 and ARM targets. I have added references to some more files into kernel-api book, I have added some section names as well. So please, check that changes do not break something and that categories are not too much skewed. I have changed kernel-doc to accept "fastcall" and "asmlinkage" words reserved by kernel convention. Most of the other changes are modifications in the comments to make kernel-doc happy, accept some parameters description and do not bail out on errors. Changed <pid> to @pid in the description, moved some #ifdef before comments to correct function to comments bindings, etc. You can see result of the modified documentation build at http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/linux/lkdb-2.6.11.tar.gz Some more sources are ready to be included into kernel-doc generated documentation. Sources has been added into kernel-api for now. Some more section names added and probably some more chaos introduced as result of quick cleanup work.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
