[PATCH v3 56/56] scrpits: kernel-doc: validate kernel-doc markup with the actual names

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Fri Oct 23 2020 - 12:35:18 EST


Kernel-doc currently expects that the kernel-doc markup to come
just before the function/enum/struct/union/typedef prototype.

Yet, if it find things like:

/**
* refcount_add - add a value to a refcount
* @i: the value to add to the refcount
* @r: the refcount
*/
static inline void __refcount_add(int i, refcount_t *r, int *oldp);
static inline void refcount_add(int i, refcount_t *r);

Kernel-doc will do the wrong thing:

foobar.h:6: warning: Function parameter or member 'oldp' not described in '__refcount_add'
.. c:function:: void __refcount_add (int i, refcount_t *r, int *oldp)

add a value to a refcount

**Parameters**

``int i``
the value to add to the refcount

``refcount_t *r``
the refcount

``int *oldp``
*undescribed*

Basically, it will document "__refcount_add" with the kernel-doc
markup for refcount_add.

If both functions have the same arguments, this won't even
produce any warning!

Add a logic to check if the kernel-doc identifier matches the actual
name of the C function or data structure that will be documented.
