[PATCH 0/3] ttp_port: Clean up kernel-docs

From: Tobin C. Harding
Date: Wed Sep 12 2018 - 03:51:18 EST


Hi,

This set is just putting a toe in the water to see if kernel-docs
cleanup is wanted in drivers/tty/

While chasing syzkaller bugs I opened up drivers/tty/tty_port.c and
noticed that a bunch of the kernel-docs function comments were
incorrectly styled. This is the case for more files under drivers/tty/,
if fixing this is deemed worthwhile I can add it to my list of jobs to
do when my brain is too fried to do anything else.

Changes comments that look like this:

/**
* ptmx_open - open a unix 98 pty master
* @inode: inode of device file
* @filp: file pointer to tty
*
* Allocate a unix98 pty master device from the ptmx driver.
*
* Locking: tty_mutex protects the init_dev work. tty->count should
* protect the rest.
* allocated_ptys_lock handles the list of free pty numbers
*/

static int ptmx_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp)

To look like this:

/**
* ptmx_open() - Open a unix 98 pty master.
* @inode: inode of device file
* @filp: file pointer to tty
*
* Allocate a unix98 pty master device from the ptmx driver.
*
* Locking: tty_mutex protects the init_dev work. tty->count should
* protect the rest.
* allocated_ptys_lock handles the list of free pty numbers
*/
static int ptmx_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp)

This is super trivial clean up - I will not be offended if this is
deemed code churn.

thanks,
Tobin.
