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:

Function arguments are different than usual ones. So, an
special logic is needed in order to handle such arguments
on nested structs.

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.

The check_sections() function has a $nested parameter, meant
to identify when a nested struct is present. As we now have
a logic that handles it, get rid of such parameter.

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.

Right now, if kernel-doc is called without arguments, it
defaults to man pages. IMO, it makes more sense to
default to ReST, as this is the output that it is most
used nowadays, and it easier to check if everything got
parsed fine on an enriched text mode format.

Right now, if one uses "--rst" instead of "-rst", it just
ignore the argument and produces a man page. Change the
logic to accept both "-cmd" and "--cmd". Also, if
"cmd" doesn't exist, print the usage information and exit.

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
the old build system;
- 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
supported.

`Documentation/i2c/dev-interface` gives examples for accessing i2c from
userspace.
There's a note that warns developers about the two `i2c-dev.h` header
files which were shipped with the kernel and i2c-tools separately.
However, following i2c-tools commits suggest that the header files are now
identical (in functionality) and `i2c_*` helper functions are now defined
in a separate header called `i2c/smbus.h`, which is distributed with
i2c-tools:
commit 652619121974 ("Minimize differences with kernel flavor")
commit 93caf007f4cb ("Move SMBus helper functions to include/i2c/smbus.h")
Thus, I've converted the warning paragraph into a historical note and
updated the suggested header files.

Onewire devices has 6 byte long unique serial numbers, 1 byte family
code and 1 byte CRC. Linux sysfs presents the device folder in the
form of familyID-deviceID, so CRC is not shown. The consequence is
that the device serial number is always a 12 long hex-string, but
doc says 13 in one place. This is corrected by this change.
