Mauro Carvalho Chehab 85afe608f5 scripts: kernel_doc: better handle show warnings logic
The logic with inhibits warnings for definitions that is not
output is incomplete: it doesn't cover the cases where
OUTPUT_INTERNAL and OUTPUT_EXPORTED are used.

As the most common case is OUTPUT_ALL, place it first,
in order to optimize a litte bit the check logic.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 2defb27292 scripts: kernel-doc: apply filtering rules to warnings
When kernel-doc is called with output selection filters,
it will be called lots of time for a single file. If
there is a warning present there, it means that it may
print hundreds of identical warnings.

Worse than that, the -function NAME actually filters only
functions. So, it makes no sense at all to print warnings
for structs or enums.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 84ce5b9877 scripts: kernel-doc: improve nested logic to handle multiple identifiers
It is possible to use nested structs like:

struct {
	struct {
		void *arg1;
	} st1, st2, *st3, st4;
};

Handling it requires to split each parameter. Change the logic
to allow such definitions.

In order to test the new nested logic, the following file
was used to test

<code>
struct foo { int a; }; /* Just to avoid errors if compiled */

/**
 * struct my_struct - a struct with nested unions and structs
 * @arg1: first argument of anonymous union/anonymous struct
 * @arg2: second argument of anonymous union/anonymous struct
 * @arg1b: first argument of anonymous union/anonymous struct
 * @arg2b: second argument of anonymous union/anonymous struct
 * @arg3: third argument of anonymous union/anonymous struct
 * @arg4: fourth argument of anonymous union/anonymous struct
 * @bar.st1.arg1: first argument of struct st1 on union bar
 * @bar.st1.arg2: second argument of struct st1 on union bar
 * @bar.st1.bar1: bar1 at st1
 * @bar.st1.bar2: bar2 at st1
 * @bar.st2.arg1: first argument of struct st2 on union bar
 * @bar.st2.arg2: second argument of struct st2 on union bar
 * @bar.st3.arg2: second argument of struct st3 on union bar
 * @f1: nested function on anonimous union/struct
 * @bar.st2.f2: nested function on named union/struct
 */
struct my_struct {
   /* Anonymous union/struct*/
   union {
	struct {
	    char arg1 : 1;
	    char arg2 : 3;
	};
       struct {
           int arg1b;
           int arg2b;
       };
       struct {
           void *arg3;
           int arg4;
           int (*f1)(char foo, int bar);
       };
   };
   union {
       struct {
           int arg1;
           int arg2;
	   struct foo bar1, *bar2;
       } st1;           /* bar.st1 is undocumented, cause a warning */
       struct {
           void *arg1;  /* bar.st3.arg1 is undocumented, cause a warning */
	    int arg2;
          int (*f2)(char foo, int bar); /* bar.st3.fn2 is undocumented, cause a warning */
       } st2, st3, *st4;
       int (*f3)(char foo, int bar); /* f3 is undocumented, cause a warning */
   } bar;               /* bar is undocumented, cause a warning */

   /* private: */
   int undoc_privat;    /* is undocumented but private, no warning */

   /* public: */
   int undoc_public;    /* is undocumented, cause a warning */
};
</code>

It produces the following warnings, as expected:

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 151c468b44 scripts: kernel-doc: print the declaration name on warnings
The logic at create_parameterlist()'s ancillary push_parameter()
function has already a way to output the declaration name, with
would help to discover what declaration is missing.

However, currently, the logic is utterly broken, as it uses
the var $type with a wrong meaning. With the current code,
it will never print anything. I suspect that originally
it was using the second argument of output_declaration().

I opted to not rely on a globally defined $declaration_name,
but, instead, to pass it explicitly as a parameter.

While here, I removed a unaligned check for !$anon_struct_union.
This is not needed, as, if $anon_struct_union is not zero,
$parameterdescs{$param} will be defined.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 8ad7216316 scripts: kernel-doc: parse next structs/unions
There are several places within the Kernel tree with nested
structs/unions, like this one:

  struct ingenic_cgu_clk_info {
    const char *name;
    enum {
      CGU_CLK_NONE = 0,
      CGU_CLK_EXT = BIT(0),
      CGU_CLK_PLL = BIT(1),
      CGU_CLK_GATE = BIT(2),
      CGU_CLK_MUX = BIT(3),
      CGU_CLK_MUX_GLITCHFREE = BIT(4),
      CGU_CLK_DIV = BIT(5),
      CGU_CLK_FIXDIV = BIT(6),
      CGU_CLK_CUSTOM = BIT(7),
    } type;
    int parents[4];
    union {
      struct ingenic_cgu_pll_info pll;
      struct {
        struct ingenic_cgu_gate_info gate;
        struct ingenic_cgu_mux_info mux;
        struct ingenic_cgu_div_info div;
        struct ingenic_cgu_fixdiv_info fixdiv;
      };
      struct ingenic_cgu_custom_info custom;
    };
  };

Currently, such struct is documented as:

	**Definition**

	::
	struct ingenic_cgu_clk_info {
	    const char * name;
	};

	**Members**

	``name``
	  name of the clock

With is obvioulsy wrong. It also generates an error:
	drivers/clk/ingenic/cgu.h:169: warning: No description found for parameter 'enum'

However, there's nothing wrong with this kernel-doc markup: everything
is documented there.

It makes sense to document all fields there. So, add a
way for the core to parse those structs.

With this patch, all documented fields will properly generate
documentation.

Since there isn't any docbook code anymore upstream,
we can get rid of several output formats:

- docbook/xml, html, html5 and list formats were used by

- As ReST is text, there's not much sense on outputting
  on a different text format.

After this patch, only man and rst output formats are

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 45005b27c1 kernel-doc: parse DECLARE_KFIFO and DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR()
On media, we now have an struct declared with:

struct lirc_fh {
        struct list_head list;
        struct rc_dev *rc;
        int                             carrier_low;
        bool                            send_timeout_reports;
        DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR(rawir, unsigned int);
        DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR(scancodes, struct lirc_scancode);
        wait_queue_head_t               wait_poll;
        u8                              send_mode;
        u8                              rec_mode;
};

gpiolib.c has a similar declaration with DECLARE_KFIFO().

Currently, those produce the following error:

	./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: No description found for parameter 'int'
	./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: No description found for parameter 'lirc_scancode'
	./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: Excess struct member 'rawir' description in 'lirc_fh'
	./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: Excess struct member 'scancodes' description in 'lirc_fh'
	../drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c:601: warning: No description found for parameter '16'
	../drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c:601: warning: Excess struct member 'events' description in 'lineevent_state'

So, teach kernel-doc how to parse DECLARE_KFIFO() and DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR().

While here, relax at the past DECLARE_foo() macros, accepting a random
number of spaces after comma.

The addition of DECLARE_KFIFO() was

Will Deacon e814bccbaf scripts/kernel-doc: Don't fail with status != 0 if error encountered with -none
My bisect scripts starting running into build failures when trying to
compile 4.15-rc1 with the builds failing with things like:

drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/sdio.c:2078: error: Cannot parse struct or union!

The line in question is actually just a #define, but after some digging
it turns out that my scripts pass W=1 and since commit 3a025e1d1c
("Add optional check for bad kernel-doc comments") that results in
kernel-doc running on each source file. The file in question has a
badly formatted comment immediately before the #define:

/**
 * struct brcmf_skbuff_cb reserves first two bytes in sk_buff::cb for
 * bus layer usage.
 */

which causes the regex in dump_struct to fail (lack of braces following
struct declaration) and kernel-doc returns 1, which causes the build
to fail.

Fix the issue by always returning 0 from kernel-doc when invoked with
-none. It successfully generates no documentation, and prints out any
issues.

we need to see the actual unmodified address. This can be achieved using

the already existent 50 000 %lx call sites. Let's add specifier %px as a

Masahiro Yamada 2dbc644ac6 kbuild: pkg: use --transform option to prefix paths in tar
For rpm-pkg and deb-pkg, a source tar file is created.  All paths in
the archive must be prefixed with the base name of the tar so that
everything is contained in the directory when you extract it.

Currently, scripts/package/Makefile uses a symlink for that, and
removes it after the tar is created.

If you terminate the build during the tar creation, the symlink is
left over.  Then, at the next package build, you will see a warning
like follows:

  ln: '.' and 'kernel-4.14.0+/.' are the same file

It is possible to fix it by adding -n (--no-dereference) option to
the "ln" command, but a cleaner way is to use --transform option
of "tar" command.  This option is GNU extension, but it should not
hurt to use it in the Linux build system.

The 'S' flag is needed to exclude symlinks from the path fixup.
Without it, symlinks in the kernel are broken.
