0c9aa20957 kernel-doc: add support for one line inline struct member doc comments
kernel-doc supports documenting struct members "inline" since
a4c6ebede2 ("scripts/kernel-doc Allow struct arguments documentation
in struct body"). This requires the inline kernel-doc comments to have
the opening and closing comment markers (/** and */ respectively) on
lines of their own, even for short comments. For example:

	/**
	 * struct foo - struct documentation
	 */
	struct foo {
		/**
		 * @bar: member documentation
		 */
		int bar;
	};

Add support for one line inline comments:

	/**
	 * struct foo - struct documentation
	 */
	struct foo {
		/** @bar: member documentation */
		int bar;
	};

Note that mixing of the two in one doc comment is not allowed; either
both comment markers must be on lines of their own, or both must be on
the one line. This limitation keeps both the comments more uniform, and
kernel-doc less complicated.

ef00028b20 docs: make kernel-doc handle varargs properly
As far as I can tell, the handling of "..." arguments has never worked
right, so any documentation provided was ignored in favor of "variable
arguments."  This makes kernel-doc handle "@...:" as documented.  It does
*not* fix spots in kerneldoc comments that don't follow that convention,
but they are no more broken than before.

82801d065b docs-rst: kernel-doc: fix typedef output in RST format
When using a typedef function like this one:
	typedef bool v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, void * handle);

The Sphinx C domain expects it to create a c:type: reference,
as that's the way it creates the type references when parsing
a c:function:: declaration.

So, a declaration like:

	.. c:function:: bool v4l2_valid_dv_timings (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, const struct v4l2_dv_timings_cap * cap, v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc fnc, void * fnc_handle)

Will create a cross reference for :c:type:`v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc`.

So, when outputting such typedefs in RST format, we need to handle
this special case, as otherwise it will produce those warnings:

	./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:43: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc
	./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:60: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc
	./include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:81: WARNING: c:type reference target not found: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc

So, change the kernel-doc script to produce a RST output for the
above typedef as:
	.. c:type:: v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc

	   **Typedef**: timings check callback

	**Syntax**

	  ``bool v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc (const struct v4l2_dv_timings * t, void * handle);``

6d232c8015 docs-rst: kernel-doc: better output struct members
Right now, for a struct, kernel-doc produces the following output:

	.. c:type:: struct v4l2_prio_state

	   stores the priority states

	**Definition**

	::

	  struct v4l2_prio_state {
	    atomic_t prios[4];
	  };

	**Members**

	``atomic_t prios[4]``
	  array with elements to store the array priorities

Putting a member name in verbatim and adding a continuation line
causes the LaTeX output to generate something like:
	item[atomic_t prios\[4\]] array with elements to store the array priorities

Everything inside "item" is non-breakable, with may produce
lines bigger than the column width.

Also, for function members, like:

        int (* rx_read) (struct v4l2_subdev *sd, u8 *buf, size_t count,ssize_t *num);

It puts the name of the member at the end, like:

        int (*) (struct v4l2_subdev *sd, u8 *buf, size_t count,ssize_t *num) read

With is very confusing.

The best is to highlight what really matters: the member name.
is a secondary information.

So, change kernel-doc, for it to produce the output on a different way:

	**Members**

	``prios[4]``

	  array with elements to store the array priorities

Also, as the type is not part of LaTeX "item[]", LaTeX will split it into
multiple lines, if needed.

So, both LaTeX/PDF and HTML outputs will look good.

It should be noticed, however, that the way Sphinx LaTeX output handles
things like:

	Foo
	   bar

is different than the HTML output. On HTML, it will produce something
like:

	**Foo**
	   bar

While, on LaTeX, it puts both foo and bar at the same line, like:

	**Foo** bar

88c2b57da4 kernel-doc: add support for specifying extra files for EXPORT_SYMBOLs
If the kernel-doc comments for functions are not in the same file as the
EXPORT_SYMBOL statements, the -export and -internal output selections do
not work as expected. This is typically the case when the kernel-doc
comments are in header files next to the function declarations and the
EXPORT_SYMBOL statements are next to the function definitions in the
source files.

Let the user specify additional source files in which to look for the
EXPORT_SYMBOLs using the new -export-file FILE option, which may be
given multiple times.

The pathological example for this is include/net/mac80211.h, which has
all the kernel-doc documentation for the exported functions defined in a
plethora of source files net/mac80211/*.c.

95b6be9d19 kernel-doc: do not warn about duplicate default section names
Since

Author: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com>
Date:   Sun May 29 09:40:44 2016 +0300

    kernel-doc: concatenate contents of colliding sections

we started getting (more) errors on duplicate section names, especially
on the default section name "Description":

include/net/mac80211.h:3174: warning: duplicate section name 'Description'

This is usually caused by a slightly unorthodox placement of parameter
descriptions, like in the above case, and kernel-doc resetting back to
the default section more than once within a kernel-doc comment.

Ignore warnings on the duplicate section name automatically assigned by
kernel-doc, and only consider explicitly user assigned duplicate section
names an issue.

0b0f5f29b2 scripts/kernel-doc: Add option to inject line numbers
Opt-in since this wreaks the rst output and must be removed
by consumers again. This is useful to adjust the linenumbers
for included kernel-doc snippets in shinx. With that sphinx
error message will be accurate when there's issues with the
rst-ness of the kernel-doc comments.

Especially when transitioning a new docbook .tmpl to .rst this
is extremely useful, since you can just use your editors compilation
quickfix list to accurately jump from error to error.

v2:
- Also make sure that we filter the LINENO for purpose/at declaration
  start so it only shows for selected blocks, not all of them (Jani).
  While at it make it a notch more accurate.
- Avoid undefined $lineno issues. I tried filtering these out at the
  callsite, but Jani spotted more when linting the entire kernel.
  Unamed unions and similar things aren't stored consistently and end
  up with an undefined line number (but also no kernel-doc text, just
  the parameter type). Simplify things and filter undefined line
  numbers in print_lineno() to catch them all.

v3: Fix LINENO 0 issue for kernel-doc comments without @param: lines
or any other special sections that directly jump to the description
after the "name - purpose" line. Only really possible for functions
without parameters. Noticed by Jani.

ebff7f929b scripts/kernel-doc: Remove duplicated DOC: start handling
Further up in the state machinery we switch from STATE_NAME to
STATE_DOCBLOCK when we match /$doc_block/. Which means this block of
code here is entirely unreachable, unless there are multiple DOC:
sections within a single kernel-doc comment.

Getting a list of all the files with more than one DOC: section using

$ git grep -c " * DOC:" | grep -v ":1$"

and then doing a full audit of them reveals there are no such comment
blocks in the kernel.

Supporting multiple DOC: sections in a single kernel-doc comment does
not seem like a recommended way of doing things anyway, so nuke the code
for simplicity.

32217761ee kernel-doc: concatenate contents of colliding sections
If there are multiple sections with the same section name, the current
implementation results in several sections by the same heading, with the
content duplicated from the last section to all. Even if there's the
error message, a more graceful approach is to combine all the
identically named sections into one, with concatenated contents.

With the supported sections already limited to select few, there are
massively fewer collisions than there used to be, but this is still
useful for e.g. when function parameters are documented in the middle of
a documentation comment, with description spread out above and
below. (This is not a recommended documentation style, but used in the
kernel nonetheless.)

We can now also demote the error to a warning.

f624adef3d kernel-doc: limit the "section header:" detection to a select few
kernel-doc currently identifies anything matching "section header:"
(specifically a string of word characters and spaces followed by a
colon) as a new section in the documentation comment, and renders the
section header accordingly.

Unfortunately, this turns all uses of colon into sections, mostly
unintentionally. Considering the output, erroneously creating sections
when not intended is always worse than erroneously not creating sections
when intended. For example, a line with "http://example.com" turns into
a "http" heading followed by "//example.com" in normal text style, which
is quite ugly. OTOH, "WARNING: Beware of the Leopard" is just fine even
if "WARNING" does not turn into a heading.

It is virtually impossible to change all the kernel-doc comments, either
way. The compromise is to pick the most commonly used and depended on
section headers (with variants) and accept them as section headers.

The accepted section headers are, case insensitive:

 * description:
 * context:
 * return:
 * returns:

Additionally, case sensitive:

 * @return:

All of the above are commonly used in the kernel-doc comments, and will
result in worse output if not identified as section headers. Also,
kernel-doc already has some special handling for all of them, so there's
nothing particularly controversial in adding more special treatment for
them.

While at it, improve the whitespace handling surrounding section
names. Do not consider the whitespace as part of the name.

ecbcfba126 kernel-doc/rst: change the output layout
Move away from field lists, and simply use **strong emphasis** for
section headings on lines of their own. Do not use rst section headings,
because their nesting depth depends on the surrounding context, which
kernel-doc has no knowledge of. Also, they do not need to end up in any
table of contexts or indexes.

There are two related immediate benefits. Field lists are typically
rendered in two columns, while the new style uses the horizontal width
better. With no extra indent on the left, there's no need to be as fussy
about it. Field lists are more susceptible to indentation problems than
the new style.

then docproc calls kernel-doc on specific functions, to get
documentation on exported functions. According to git blame and docproc
comments, this is due to historical reasons, as functions and their
corresponding EXPORT_SYMBOL* may have been in different files. However
for more than ten years the recommendation in CodingStyle has been to
place the EXPORT_SYMBOL* immediately after the closing function brace
line.

Additionally, the kernel-doc comments for functions are generally placed
above the function definition in the .c files (i.e. where the
EXPORT_SYMBOL* is) rather than above the declaration in the .h
files. There are some exceptions to this, but AFAICT none of these are
included in DocBook documentation using the "!E" docproc directive.

Therefore, assuming the EXPORT_SYMBOL* and kernel-doc are with the
function definition, kernel-doc can extract the exported vs. not
information by making two passes on the input file. Add support for that
via the new -export and -internal parameters.

6285097654 kernel-doc: use rst C domain directives and references for types
First, the headings for structs, enums and typedefs will be similar to
functions. Second, this provides a kind of namespace for cross
references. Third, and most importantly, the return and parameter types
from .. c:function:: definitions will automagically become cross
references to the documented types.

c0d1b6ee78 kernel-doc: produce RestructuredText output
If given the -rst flag, output will now be in RestructuredText.  Various
glitches to be worked out yet.

In the end I decided not to use RST section headings within the kerneldoc
comments.  gpu.tmpl already has headings five levels deep; adding more is
not going to bring clarity.

This is really just Jani Nikula's asciidoc change with the serial numbers
filed off.  It's a hack job that doubtless needs a lot of cleaning up.

e535d74bc5 A relatively boring cycle in the docs tree. There's a few kernel-doc
fixes and various document tweaks.
 
 One patch reaches out of the documentation subtree to fix a comment in
 init/do_mounts_rd.c.  There didn't seem to be anybody more appropriate to
 take that one, so I accepted it.

b22b5a9ef5 kernel-doc: Fix parsing of DECLARE_BITMAP in struct
Some documented structures in the kernel use DECLARE_BITMAP to create
arrays of unsigned longs to store information using the bitmap functions.
These have to be replaced with a parsable version for kernel-doc.

For example a simple input like

    /**
     * struct something - some test
     * @members: active members
     */
    struct something {
    	DECLARE_BITMAP(members, MAX_MEMBERS);
    };

resulted in parsing warnings like

    warning: No description found for parameter 'MAX_MEMBERS)'
    warning: Excess struct/union/enum/typedef member 'members' description in 'something'

4468e21eed kernel-doc: Strip #ifdef/#endif in enums
Some enumerations in the kernel headers use #ifdef to reduce their size
based on the the configuration. These lines have to be stripped to avoid
parsing problems.

For example a simple input like

    /**
     * enum flags - test flags
     * @flag1: first flag
     * @flag2: second flag
     */
    enum flags {
    	flag1 = BIT(0),
    #ifdef SECOND_FLAG
    	flag2 = BIT(1),
    #endif
    };

resulted in parsing warnings like

    warning: Enum value '#ifdef SECOND_FLAG;flag2 = BIT(1)' not described in enum 'flags'

8a9260aa96 kernel-doc: Fix stripping of #define in enums
The regex to strip single line #define's in enumerations depends on the
fact that the defines are still stored on separate lines. But the
surrounding code already removed newlines and replaced them with
semicolons.

For example a simple input like

    /**
     * enum flags - test flags
     * @flag1: first flag
     * @flag2: second flag
     * @flag3: third flag
     * @flag4: fourth flag
     */
    enum flags {
    	flag1 = BIT(0),
    	flag2 = BIT(1),
    #define flags_small (flag1 | flag2)
    	flag3 = BIT(2),
    	flag4 = BIT(3),
    #define flags_big (flag2 | flag3)
    };

resulted in parsing warnings like

    warning: Enum value '#define flags_small (flag1 | flag2);flag3 = BIT(2)' not described in enum 'flags'
    warning: Enum value '#define flags_big (flag2 | flag3);' not described in enum 'flags'
