The patch titled Subject: nilfs2: add missing return value kernel-doc descriptions has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch. Its filename is nilfs2-add-missing-return-value-kernel-doc-descriptions.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/nilfs2-add-missing-return-value-kernel-doc-descriptions.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-nonmm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: nilfs2: add missing return value kernel-doc descriptions Date: Thu, 9 Jan 2025 12:23:25 +0900 There are a number of kernel-doc comments for functions that are missing return values, which also causes a number of warnings when the kernel-doc script is run with the "-Wall" option. Fix this issue by adding proper return value descriptions, and improve code maintainability.
