Kernel-doc has always be limited to a probably bad documented rule: The kernel-doc markups should appear *imediatelly before* the function or data structure that it documents. On other words, if a C file would contain something like this: /** * foo - function foo * @args: foo args */ static inline void bar(int args); /** * bar - function bar * @args: foo args */ static inline void foo(void *args); The output (in ReST format) will be: .. c:function:: void bar (int args) function foo **Parameters** ``int args`` foo args .. c:function:: void foo (void *args) function bar **Parameters** ``void *args`` foo args Which is clearly a wrong result. Before this changeset, not even a warning is produced on such cases. As placing such markups just before the documented data is a common practice, on most cases this is fine. However, as patches touch things, identifiers may be renamed, and people may forget to update the kernel-doc markups to follow such changes. This has been happening for quite a while, as there are lots of files with kernel-doc problems. This series address those issues and add a file at the end that will enforce that the identifier will match the kernel-doc markup, avoiding this problem from keep happening as time goes by. This series is based on current upstream tree. @maintainers: feel free to pick the patches and apply them directly on your trees, as all patches on this series are independent from the other ones. -- v4: - Patches got rebased and got some acks.
