Functions, Structs and Parameters definitions on kernel documentation
are pure cosmetic, it only highlights the element.
To ease the navigation in the documentation we should use <links> inside
those tags so readers can easily jump between methods directly.
This was discussed in 2014[1] and is implemented by getting a list
of <refentries> from the DocBook XML to generate a database. Then it looks
for <function>,<structnames> and <paramdef> tags that matches the ones in
the database. As it only links existent references, no broken links are
added.

Describing arguments at top of a struct definition works fine
for small/medium size structs, but it definitely doesn't work well
for struct with a huge list of elements.
Keeping the arguments list inside the struct body makes it easier
to maintain the documentation.
ie:
/**
* struct my_struct - short description
* @a: first member
* @b: second member
*
* Longer description
*/
struct my_struct {
int a;
int b;
/**
* @c: This is longer description of C
*
* You can use paragraphs to describe arguments
* using this method.
*/
int c;
};
This patch allows the use of this kind of syntax. Only one argument
per comment and user can use how many paragraphs he needs. It should
start with /**, which is already being used by kernel-doc. If those
comment doesn't follow those rules, it will be ignored.

prevent kernel-doc to behave deterministically when parsing “@foo()” as

The tilegx and tilepro compilers use .coldtext for their unlikely
executed text section name, so an __attribute__((cold)) function
will (when compiled with higher optimization levels) land in
the .coldtext section.
Modify modpost to add .coldtext to the set of OTHER_TEXT_SECTIONS
so we don't get warnings about referencing such a section in an
__ex_table block, and then also modify arch/tile/lib/memcpy_user_64.c
so that it uses plain ".coldtext" instead of ".coldtext.memcpy".
The latter naming is a relic of an earlier use of -ffunction-sections,
which we no longer use by default.

Device drivers typically use ACPI _HIDs/_CIDs listed in struct device_driver
acpi_match_table to match devices. However, for generic drivers, we do not
want to list _HID for all supported devices. Also, certain classes of devices
do not have _CID (e.g. SATA, USB). Instead, we can leverage ACPI _CLS,
which specifies PCI-defined class code (i.e. base-class, subclass and
programming interface). This patch adds support for matching ACPI devices using
the _CLS method.
To support loadable module, current design uses _HID or _CID to match device's
modalias. With the new way of matching with _CLS this would requires modification
to the current ACPI modalias key to include _CLS. This patch appends PCI-defined
class-code to the existing ACPI modalias as following.
acpi:<HID>:<CID1>:<CID2>:..:<CIDn>:<bbsspp>:
E.g:
# cat /sys/devices/platform/AMDI0600:00/modalias
acpi:AMDI0600:010601:
where bb is th base-class code, ss is te sub-class code, and pp is the
programming interface code
Since there would not be _HID/_CID in the ACPI matching table of the driver,
this patch adds a field to acpi_device_id to specify the matching _CLS.
static const struct acpi_device_id ahci_acpi_match[] = {
{ ACPI_DEVICE_CLASS(PCI_CLASS_STORAGE_SATA_AHCI, 0xffffff) },
{},
};
In this case, the corresponded entry in modules.alias file would be:
alias acpi*:010601:* ahci_platform

"Remove __cpuinit macros and users.
We removed the __cpuinit stuff in 3.11-rc1 with commit 22f0a27367
("init.h: remove __cpuinit sections from the kernel") but we left some
no-op stubs as a courtesy to unmerged code.
Here we get rid of the stubs as well, since (as can be seen in these
changes) they are enabling use cases to sneak back in, primarily from
older BSP code that has been living out of tree for some time prior to
getting mainlined. So we get rid of these "new" users 1st and then
get rid of the stubs.
Obviously, getting rid of the stubs can't happen until all the users
are gone, so I had to keep this together as a series, even though some
of these commits since got picked up into maintainers trees as well.
The nature of this change is such that it should have zero impact on
the generated runtime.
This is one of several independent cleanup branches aimed at enabling
better organization in the init.h and module.h code. They have been
getting coverage in the linux-next tree for the last month, in
addition to my local testing, which also covers approximately a half
dozen or more architectures"

Many lines of code extend beyond the maximum line length. Some of these
are possibly justified by use type.
For instance:
structure definitions where comments are added per member like:
struct foo {
type member; /* some long description */
And lines that don't fit the typical logging message style
where a string constant is used like:
SOME_MACRO(args, "Some long string");
Categorize these long line types so that checkpatch can use a command-line
--ignore=<type> option to avoid emitting some long line warnings.
One of the existing checkpatch exclusions allowed kernel-doc argument
documentation to exceed 80 columns because old versions of kernel-doc
required single line documentation. The requirement was removed in 2009
so remove that exclusion.
Add documentation to make the test a bit clearer.

String detection where a source line with a string constant is converted
can either have an X or a space.
Some of the string detection regexes do not allow the space character, but
there is a handy $String variable that does.
Convert the remaining uses of string detection regexes to use the $String
variable to reduce possible false negatives.

checkpatch uses various cues in its input patches and files to discover
the names of user-defined types and modifiers. It then uses that
information when processing expressions to discover potential style
issues.
Unfortunately, in rare cases, this means that checkpatch may give
different results if you run it on several input files in one execution,
or one by one!
The reason is that it may identify a type (or something that looks like a
type) in one file, and then carry this information over when processing a
different file.
For example, drivers/staging/media/bcm2048/radio-bcm2048.c contains this
line (in a macro):
size value;
and drivers/staging/media/davinci_vpfe/vpfe_video.c has this line:
while (size * *nbuffers > vpfe_dev->video_limit)
If checkpatch processes these 2 files in a single command like:
./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f $file1 $file2
the (spurious) "size" type detected in the first file will cause it to flag
the second file for improper use of the pointer dereference operator.
To fix this, store types and modifiers found in a file in separate arrays
from built-in ones, and reset the arrays of types and modifiers found in
files at the beginning of each new source file.
