Sure you can find some exceptions to that. And there is no hard requirement in Documentation/kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt. IMO the biggest concern is making sure that the (kernel-doc) comments are updated when the function implementation changes (if updates are needed). Where would be the best place for this to be more likely to happen? Usually at the function implementation, I would say. ~Randy -- ~Randy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
