Can you please take a look at best resolving the below problem.

Maybe we should eliminate the duplicate declarations? Updating such
a list manually seems error prone to me.
For Kernel 5.10, IMO the best is to apply this patch as-is, as any
other thing would need to be postponed, and we want 5.10 free of
doc warnings.

That's odd... Most of the functions are documented. Is it that we're
missing the "()" after the function name maybe?
The problem is we first include named functions, and then go on to
include everything again, duplicating the documentation for the named
functions.

BR,
Jani.


Thanks, now the patch makes sense.

Yet, when I wrote this one, I almost took a different approach:
to implement something like @*group (or \*group) directives that
exists on doxygen:

https://www.doxygen.nl/manual/grouping.html

If something like that gets added to kernel-doc syntax, then
one could do something like:

/**
* DOC: some foo description
* @group foo
*/
/**
* foo1 - do some foo things
* @group foo
...
*/

/**
* foo2 - do some other foo things
* @group foo
...
*/

/**
* bar - do bar things
* @group bar
...
*/


And then, at kernel-doc markup:

FOO
===

.. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_perf.c
:group: foo


BAR
===
.. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_perf.c
:group: bar


I suspect that something like that would be a lot easier to maintain.

Once having someone like that implemented, it should be easy to also
have something like this:

OTHERS
======
.. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_perf.c
:export:
:not-grouped:

in order to pick other functions that aren't grouped.

I suspect that implementing something like that at kernel-doc.pl
won't be hard.

With Sphinx 3, C declarations can't be duplicated anymore,
so let's exclude those from the other internals found on
i915_perf.c file.
