A small patchset to update the verbs API documentation with some information regarding the ioctl syscall. First patch converts the file format to ReST, since this is the new preferred format, moves the file to Documentation/userspace-api, and updates the index. The 2nd patch adds the new content, documenting a bit of the internal workings of the kernel side of the API functions. The goal is to make it easier for developers unfamiliar with the structure to understand what is going on when adding a new function. The 3rd patch updates the MAINTAINERS file. v3 addresses comments from Jon, Willy and Jason: The location of the new content should be driver-api The location of the old (converted) content should be userspace-api MAINTAINERS file must be updated Joel Nider (3): docs-rst: Convert user verbs doc to rst docs-rst: driver-api: Add infiniband interface documentation MAINTAINERS: add new RDMA/Infiniband documentation Documentation/driver-api/index.rst | 1 + Documentation/driver-api/infiniband.rst | 73 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ Documentation/infiniband/user_verbs.txt | 69 ----------------------- Documentation/userspace-api/index.rst | 1 + Documentation/userspace-api/rdma_user_verbs.rst | 70 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ MAINTAINERS | 2 + 6 files changed, 147 insertions(+), 69 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/driver-api/infiniband.rst delete mode 100644 Documentation/infiniband/user_verbs.txt create mode 100644 Documentation/userspace-api/rdma_user_verbs.rst -- 2.7.4
