I wonder why you get no complaint that @disc argument is not mentioned,
Hi Bart,
Hello John,
Since I was not sure how to document the 'disc' argument I changed /**
into /* to make the kernel-doc tool skip the sas_init_disc() function.
Any suggestion for how to document the 'disc' argument would be welcome.
I see now.
For this @disc pointer, I would just write "port discovery structure".
In fact I think that we could just change the code to accept the @port
argument, as the @disc argument is the port->disc. But that's another job.
-/**

* sas_configure_parent -- configure routing table of parent
- * parent: parent expander
- * child: child expander
- * sas_addr: SAS port identifier of device directly attached to child
+ * @parent: parent expander
+ * @child: child expander
+ * @sas_addr: SAS port identifier of device directly attached to child
and no mention of @include here
Also for the 'include' argument, a suggestion of how to document it
would be welcome.
To be honest, I am not so fimilar with this specific part of the code.
As I see, the @include argument is to flag whether we want to setup or
tear down a routing for parent (upstream) expander device.
I am not 100% sure on this so you could stick with making it a
non-kerneldoc comments. It is static.
/**
* sas_revalidate_domain -- revalidate the domain
This function name seems incorrect. [ ... ] And I would write "port
domain device"
Thanks, will fix.
-/**
+/*
If the build does not complain about this for W=1, then should we
include it? I ask, as I see many other instances of "/**". I don't
mind cleaning them up in a separate patch.
The kernel-doc tool only analyzes function headers that start with
"/**". Any changes of "/**" into "/*" mean that I did not know how to
document the arguments about which the kernel-doc tool complained that
documentation was missing.
Thanks,
Bart.
