People complained that setting the PCI config space access mechanism through "pci=conf1" or "pci=conf2" on the command line is not really documented. Yeah, can you blame them? Look at what we have now. So try to improve the situation a bit by explaining what those "conf1" and "conf2" things actually mean. See http://wiki.osdev.org/PCI for more info.

Robert Elliott authored
The brd driver has never supported the ramdisk_blocksize kernel parameter that was in the rd driver it replaced, so remove mention of this parameter from comments and Documentation. Commit 9db5579b ("rewrite rd") replaced rd with brd, keeping a brd_blocksize variable in struct brd_device but never using it. Commit a2cba291 ("brd: get rid of unused members from struct brd_device") removed the unused variable. Commit f5abc8e7 ("Documentation/blockdev/ramdisk.txt: updates") removed mentions of ramdisk_blocksize from that file.

Some documented structures in the kernel use DECLARE_BITMAP to create arrays of unsigned longs to store information using the bitmap functions. These have to be replaced with a parsable version for kernel-doc. For example a simple input like /** * struct something - some test * @members: active members */ struct something { DECLARE_BITMAP(members, MAX_MEMBERS); }; resulted in parsing warnings like warning: No description found for parameter 'MAX_MEMBERS)' warning: Excess struct/union/enum/typedef member 'members' description in 'something' Signed-off-by: Conchúr Navid <conchur@web.de> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

Some enumerations in the kernel headers use #ifdef to reduce their size based on the the configuration. These lines have to be stripped to avoid parsing problems. For example a simple input like /** * enum flags - test flags * @flag1: first flag * @flag2: second flag */ enum flags { flag1 = BIT(0), #ifdef SECOND_FLAG flag2 = BIT(1), #endif }; resulted in parsing warnings like warning: Enum value '#ifdef SECOND_FLAG;flag2 = BIT(1)' not described in enum 'flags' warning: Enum value '#endif;' not described in enum 'flags' Signed-off-by: Conchúr Navid <conchur@web.de> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

The regex to strip single line #define's in enumerations depends on the fact that the defines are still stored on separate lines. But the surrounding code already removed newlines and replaced them with semicolons. For example a simple input like /** * enum flags - test flags * @flag1: first flag * @flag2: second flag * @flag3: third flag * @flag4: fourth flag */ enum flags { flag1 = BIT(0), flag2 = BIT(1), #define flags_small (flag1 | flag2) flag3 = BIT(2), flag4 = BIT(3), #define flags_big (flag2 | flag3) }; resulted in parsing warnings like warning: Enum value '#define flags_small (flag1 | flag2);flag3 = BIT(2)' not described in enum 'flags' warning: Enum value '#define flags_big (flag2 | flag3);' not described in enum 'flags' Signed-off-by: Conchúr Navid <conchur@web.de> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

cpu_relax() on ARC has been barrier only for SMP (and no-op for UP). Per recent discussions, it is safer to make it a compiler barrier unconditionally.
