+
+How to format kernel-doc comments
+---------------------------------
+
+In order to provide embedded, 'C' friendly, easy to maintain,
+but consistent and extractable documentation of the functions and
+data structures in the Linux kernel, the Linux kernel has adopted
+a consistent style for documenting functions and their parameters,
+and structures and their members.
+
+The format for this documentation is called the kernel-doc format.
+It is documented in this Documentation/kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt file.
+
+This style embeds the documentation within the source files, using
+a few simple conventions.  The scripts/kernel-doc perl script, some
+SGML templates in Documentation/DocBook, and other tools understand
+these conventions, and are used to extract this embedded documentation
+into various documents.
+
+In order to provide good documentation of kernel functions and data
+structures, please use the following conventions to format your
+kernel-doc comments in Linux kernel source.
+
+We definitely need kernel-doc formatted documentation for functions
+that are exported to loadable modules using EXPORT_SYMBOL.
+
+We also look to provide kernel-doc formatted documentation for
+functions externally visible to other kernel files (not marked
+"static").
+
+We also recommend providing kernel-doc formatted documentation
+for private (file "static") routines, for consistency of kernel
+source code layout.  But this is lower priority and at the
+discretion of the MAINTAINER of that kernel source file.
+
+Data structures visible in kernel include files should also be
+documented using kernel-doc formatted comments.
+
+The opening comment mark "/**" is reserved for kernel-doc comments.
+Only comments so marked will be considered by the kernel-doc scripts,
+and any comment so marked must be in kernel-doc format.  Do not use
+"/**" to be begin a comment block unless the comment block contains
+kernel-doc formatted comments.  The closing comment marker for
+kernel-doc comments can be either "*/" or "**/", but "*/" is
+preferred in the Linux kernel tree.
+
+Kernel-doc comments should be placed just before the function
+or data structure being described.
+
+Example kernel-doc function comment:
+
+/**
+ * foobar() - short function description of foobar
+ * @arg1:	Describe the first argument to foobar.
+ * @arg2:	Describe the second argument to foobar.
+ *		One can provide multiple line descriptions
+ *		for arguments.
+ *
+ * A longer description, with more discussion of the function foobar()
+ * that might be useful to those using or modifying it.  Begins with
+ * empty comment line, and may include additional embedded empty
+ * comment lines.
+ *
+ * The longer description can have multiple paragraphs.
+ *
+ * Return: Describe the return value of foobar.
+ */
+
+The short description following the subject can span multiple lines
+and ends with an @argument description, an empty line or the end of
+the comment block.
+
+The @argument descriptions must begin on the very next line following
+this opening short function description line, with no intervening
+empty comment lines.
+
+If a function parameter is "..." (varargs), it should be listed in
+kernel-doc notation as:
+ * @...: description
+
+The return value, if any, should be described in a dedicated section
+named "Return".
+
+Example kernel-doc data structure comment.
+
+/**
+ * struct blah - the basic blah structure
+ * @mem1:	describe the first member of struct blah
+ * @mem2:	describe the second member of struct blah,
+ *		perhaps with more lines and words.
+ *
+ * Longer description of this structure.
+ */
+
+The kernel-doc function comments describe each parameter to the
+function, in order, with the @name lines.
+
+The kernel-doc data structure comments describe each structure member
+in the data structure, with the @name lines.
+
+The longer description formatting is "reflowed", losing your line
+breaks.  So presenting carefully formatted lists within these
+descriptions won't work so well; derived documentation will lose
+the formatting.
+
+See the section below "How to add extractable documentation to your
+source files" for more details and notes on how to format kernel-doc
+comments.
+
+Components of the kernel-doc system
+-----------------------------------
+
+Many places in the source tree have extractable documentation in the
+form of block comments above functions.  The components of this system
+are:
+
+- scripts/kernel-doc
+
+  This is a perl script that hunts for the block comments and can mark
+  them up directly into DocBook, man, text, and HTML. (No, not
+  texinfo.)
+
+- Documentation/DocBook/*.tmpl
+
+  These are SGML template files, which are normal SGML files with
+  special place-holders for where the extracted documentation should
+  go.
+
+- scripts/basic/docproc.c
+
+  This is a program for converting SGML template files into SGML
+  files. When a file is referenced it is searched for symbols
+  exported (EXPORT_SYMBOL), to be able to distinguish between internal
+  and external functions.
+  It invokes kernel-doc, giving it the list of functions that
+  are to be documented.
+  Additionally it is used to scan the SGML template files to locate
+  all the files referenced herein. This is used to generate dependency
+  information as used by make.
+
+- Makefile
+
+  The targets 'xmldocs', 'psdocs', 'pdfdocs', and 'htmldocs' are used
+  to build XML DocBook files, PostScript files, PDF files, and html files
+  in Documentation/DocBook. The older target 'sgmldocs' is equivalent
+  to 'xmldocs'.
+
+- Documentation/DocBook/Makefile
+
+  This is where C files are associated with SGML templates.
+
+
+How to extract the documentation
+--------------------------------
+
+If you just want to read the ready-made books on the various
+subsystems (see Documentation/DocBook/*.tmpl), just type 'make
+psdocs', or 'make pdfdocs', or 'make htmldocs', depending on your
+preference.  If you would rather read a different format, you can type
+'make xmldocs' and then use DocBook tools to convert
+Documentation/DocBook/*.xml to a format of your choice (for example,
+'db2html ...' if 'make htmldocs' was not defined).
+
+If you want to see man pages instead, you can do this:
+
+$ cd linux
+$ scripts/kernel-doc -man $(find -name '*.c') | split-man.pl /tmp/man
+$ scripts/kernel-doc -man $(find -name '*.h') | split-man.pl /tmp/man
+
+Here is split-man.pl:
+
+-->
+#!/usr/bin/perl
+
+if ($#ARGV < 0) {
+   die "where do I put the results?\n";
+}
+
+mkdir $ARGV[0],0777;
+$state = 0;
+while (<STDIN>) {
+    if (/^\.TH \"[^\"]*\" 9 \"([^\"]*)\"/) {
+	if ($state == 1) { close OUT }
+	$state = 1;
+	$fn = "$ARGV[0]/$1.9";
+	print STDERR "Creating $fn\n";
+	open OUT, ">$fn" or die "can't open $fn: $!\n";
+	print OUT $_;
+    } elsif ($state != 0) {
+	print OUT $_;
+    }
+}
+
+close OUT;
+<--
+
+If you just want to view the documentation for one function in one
+file, you can do this:
+
+$ scripts/kernel-doc -man -function fn file | nroff -man | less
+
+or this:
+
+$ scripts/kernel-doc -text -function fn file
+
+
+How to add extractable documentation to your source files
+---------------------------------------------------------
+
+The format of the block comment is like this:
+
+/**
+ * function_name(:)? (- short description)?
+(* @parameterx(space)*: (description of parameter x)?)*
+(* a blank line)?
+ * (Description:)? (Description of function)?
+ * (section header: (section description)? )*
+(*)?*/
+
+All "description" text can span multiple lines, although the
+function_name & its short description are traditionally on a single line.
+Description text may also contain blank lines (i.e., lines that contain
+only a "*").
+
+"section header:" names must be unique per function (or struct,
+union, typedef, enum).
+
+Use the section header "Return" for sections describing the return value
+of a function.
+
+Avoid putting a spurious blank line after the function name, or else the
+description will be repeated!
+
+All descriptive text is further processed, scanning for the following special
+patterns, which are highlighted appropriately.
+
+'funcname()' - function
+'$ENVVAR' - environment variable
+'&struct_name' - name of a structure (up to two words including 'struct')
+'@parameter' - name of a parameter
+'%CONST' - name of a constant.
+
+NOTE 1:  The multi-line descriptive text you provide does *not* recognize
+line breaks, so if you try to format some text nicely, as in:
+
+  Return:
+    0 - cool
+    1 - invalid arg
+    2 - out of memory
+
+this will all run together and produce:
+
+  Return: 0 - cool 1 - invalid arg 2 - out of memory
+
+NOTE 2:  If the descriptive text you provide has lines that begin with
+some phrase followed by a colon, each of those phrases will be taken as
+a new section heading, which means you should similarly try to avoid text
+like:
+
+  Return:
+    0: cool
+    1: invalid arg
+    2: out of memory
+
+every line of which would start a new section.  Again, probably not
+what you were after.
+
+Take a look around the source tree for examples.
+
+
+kernel-doc for structs, unions, enums, and typedefs
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+Beside functions you can also write documentation for structs, unions,
+enums and typedefs. Instead of the function name you must write the name
+of the declaration;  the struct/union/enum/typedef must always precede
+the name. Nesting of declarations is not supported.
+Use the argument mechanism to document members or constants.
+
+Inside a struct description, you can use the "private:" and "public:"
+comment tags.  Structure fields that are inside a "private:" area
+are not listed in the generated output documentation.  The "private:"
+and "public:" tags must begin immediately following a "/*" comment
+marker.  They may optionally include comments between the ":" and the
+ending "*/" marker.
+
+Example:
+
+/**
+ * struct my_struct - short description
+ * @a: first member
+ * @b: second member
+ *
+ * Longer description
+ */
+struct my_struct {
+    int a;
+    int b;
+/* private: internal use only */
+    int c;
+};
+
+
+Including documentation blocks in source files
+----------------------------------------------
+
+To facilitate having source code and comments close together, you can
+include kernel-doc documentation blocks that are free-form comments
+instead of being kernel-doc for functions, structures, unions,
+enums, or typedefs.  This could be used for something like a
+theory of operation for a driver or library code, for example.
+
+This is done by using a DOC: section keyword with a section title.  E.g.:
+
+/**
+ * DOC: Theory of Operation
+ *
+ * The whizbang foobar is a dilly of a gizmo.  It can do whatever you
+ * want it to do, at any time.  It reads your mind.  Here's how it works.
+ *
+ * foo bar splat
+ *
+ * The only drawback to this gizmo is that is can sometimes damage
+ * hardware, software, or its subject(s).
+ */
+
+DOC: sections are used in SGML templates files as indicated below.
+
+
+How to make new SGML template files
+-----------------------------------
+
+SGML template files (*.tmpl) are like normal SGML files, except that
+they can contain escape sequences where extracted documentation should
+be inserted.
+
+!E<filename> is replaced by the documentation, in <filename>, for
+functions that are exported using EXPORT_SYMBOL: the function list is
+collected from files listed in Documentation/DocBook/Makefile.
+
+!I<filename> is replaced by the documentation for functions that are
+_not_ exported using EXPORT_SYMBOL.
+
+!D<filename> is used to name additional files to search for functions
+exported using EXPORT_SYMBOL.
+
+!F<filename> <function [functions...]> is replaced by the
+documentation, in <filename>, for the functions listed.
+
+!P<filename> <section title> is replaced by the contents of the DOC:
+section titled <section title> from <filename>.
+Spaces are allowed in <section title>; do not quote the <section title>.
+
+!C<filename> is replaced by nothing, but makes the tools check that
+all DOC: sections and documented functions, symbols, etc. are used.
+This makes sense to use when you use !F/!P only and want to verify
+that all documentation is included.
