2006-10-11[PATCH] kernel-doc: make parameter description indentation uniformRandy Dunlap
- In parameter descriptions, strip all whitespace between the parameter name (e.g., @len) and its description so that the description is indented uniformly in text and man page modes. Previously, spaces or tabs (which are used for cleaner source code viewing) affected the produced output in a negative way. Before (man mode): to Destination address, in user space. from Source address, in kernel space. n Number of bytes to copy. After (man mode): to Destination address, in user space. from Source address, in kernel space. n Number of bytes to copy. - Fix/clarify a few function description comments.

2006-07-01[PATCH] kernel-doc: consistent text/man mode outputRandy.Dunlap
Add a space between data type and struct field name in man-mode bitfield struct output so that they don't run together. For text-mode struct output, print the struct 'purpose' or short description (as done in man-mode output). For text-mode enum output, print the enum 'purpose' or short description (as done in man-mode output). For text-mode typedef output, print the typedef 'purpose' or short description (as done in man-mode output).

2006-06-25[PATCH] kernel-doc: use Members for struct fields consistentlyRandy Dunlap
kernel-doc struct fields should be consistently called "Members", not "Arguments", so switch man-mode output to use "Members" like all of the other formats do.

2006-06-25[PATCH] kernel-doc: don't use XML escapes in text or man output modeRandy Dunlap
For kernel-doc output modes of text and man, do not use XML escapes for less-than, greater-than, and ampersand characters. I.e., leave the text and man output clean and readable.

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. Note: list_empty on entry does not return true after this, the entry is in an undefined state.

2005-07-13[PATCH] scripts/kernel-doc: don't use uninitialized SRCTREERandy Dunlap
Current kernel-doc (perl) script generates this warning: Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at scripts/kernel-doc line 1668. So explicitly check for SRCTREE in the ENV before using it, and then if it is set, append a '/' to the end of it, otherwise the SRCTREE + filename can (will) be missing the intermediate '/'.

2005-05-01[PATCH] DocBook: Use xmlto to process the DocBook files.Martin Waitz
xmlto uses standared XSLT templates to generate manpages, (x)html pages, and XML FO files which can be processed with passivetex. This is much faster than using jadetex for everything. This patch also reduces the number of kernel-specific scripts that are needed to generate documentation.

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!
