Since the whole file of lib/percpu_counter.c has no any other kernel-doc format comments, we'd better to remove this incomplete one to tame the kernel-doc warning: lib/percpu_counter.c:83: warning: Function parameter or member 'fbc' not described in 'percpu_counter_add_batch' lib/percpu_counter.c:83: warning: Function parameter or member 'amount' not described in 'percpu_counter_add_batch' lib/percpu_counter.c:83: warning: Function parameter or member 'batch' not described in 'percpu_counter_add_batch' Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210405135505.132446-1-alexs@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Alex Shi <alexs@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Nikolay Borisov <nborisov@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Stephen Boyd <swboyd@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- lib/percpu_counter.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/lib/percpu_counter.c~lib-percpu_counter-tame-kernel-doc-compile-warning +++ a/lib/percpu_counter.c @@ -72,7 +72,7 @@ void percpu_counter_set(struct percpu_co } EXPORT_SYMBOL(percpu_counter_set); -/** +/* * This function is both preempt and irq safe.
