Yup, seems to work nicely. Thanks a lot for fixing this. Jon, pls drop/revert my hack and take Markus' proper fix instead. > One remark: The line numbers are not "perfect".

Hm, I think I still have a few off-by-one in the kernel-doc line numbers. But tbh with all the intermediate layers I wasn't sure which one is wrong and where it would need to be fixed up. But it seems like for a bunch of cases kernel-doc reports 1 line too much. If someone with more insight into all this would try to improve this, I think it'd be awesome ;-) Cheers, Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
