[PATCH 0/4] coding-style: recommend reusing macros from split headers instead of kernel.h

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear Maintainers,

This series of patches targets the "Linux kernel coding style"
documentation and recommend reusing macros inside the include/linux
directory instead of the obsolete header "include/linux/kernel.h".

This addresses the issue 'Irrelevant documentation recommending the use
of "include/linux/kernel.h"'[1][2] and help deprecating "kernel.h".

If applied, developers will no longer be confused by the contradiction
between "Linux kernel style guide" suggestions and the deprecation
notice on top of "kernel.h".

There's also a patch that adds an example to show how reusing macro
definition from shared headers help prevent naming collisions.

This series contains the update to the zh_TW and zh_CN translation of
the corresponding documentation changes.

Best regards,

Shamrock
