With I expected a output in the **Members** section for sys_clk.rate but I got none :o Anyway your concept is good and so I applied it to my py-version. If you are interested in follow the patches titled ... kernel-doc: fix nested & sub-nested handling (continued at https://github.com/return42/linuxdoc/commits/master I also added some comments from my (py-) experience to your perl implementation below. Here are some links which illustrate how your concept could work: documentation with example: https://return42.github.io/linuxdoc/linuxdoc-howto/kernel-doc-syntax.html#structs-unions how the example is rendered: https://return42.github.io/linuxdoc/linuxdoc-howto/all-in-a-tumble.html#example-my-struct > > 2) I only changed the ReST output to preserve the struct format with > nested fields. > > For (2), I'm thinking is we should still have all those output formats for > kernel-doc.
