Looks like kernel-doc doesn't like the > pointer dereferene * operator. Any good idea how to write this instead? Asterisks there are used to do *italic* or **bold**. To have an asterisk as-is, it needs to be escaped. This would work: \*foo but it is very weird for the ones reading the text file. So, what we do instead for pointers is to escape the entire declaration, like: ``*inode`` ``struct inode *inode`` I hope that helps. Thanks, Mauro
