Mauro Carvalho Chehab 6d3a3cfc2f scripts: kernel-doc: make it more compatible with Sphinx 3.x
With Sphinx 3.x, the ".. c:type:" tag was changed to accept either:

	.. c:type:: typedef-like declaration
	.. c:type:: name

Using it for other types (including functions) don't work anymore.

So, there are newer tags for macro, enum, struct, union, and others,
which doesn't exist on older versions.

Add a check for the Sphinx version and change the produced tags
accordingly.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 306b015cfb scripts: kernel-doc: add support for typedef enum
The PHY kernel-doc markup has gained support for documenting
a typedef enum.

However, right now the parser was not prepared for it.

So, add support for parsing it.

Jonathan Cameron 5c51f435cb kernel-doc: add support for ____cacheline_aligned attribute
Subroutine dump_struct uses type attributes to check if the struct
syntax is valid. Then, it removes all attributes before using it for
output. `____cacheline_aligned` is an attribute that is
not included in both steps. Add it, since it is used by kernel structs.

Based on previous patch to add ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp.
Motivated by patches to reorder this attribute to before the
variable name.   Whilst we could do that in all cases, that would
be a massive change and it is more common in the kernel to place
this particular attribute after the variable name. A quick grep
suggests approximately 400 instances of which 341 have this
attribute just before a semicolon and hence after the variable name.

Pierre-Louis Bossart 86cba21743 scripts/kernel-doc: optionally treat warnings as errors
The kbuild bot recently added the W=1 option, which triggered
documentation cleanups to squelch hundreds of kernel-doc warnings.

To make sure new kernel contributions don't add regressions to
kernel-doc descriptors, this patch suggests an option to treat
warnings as errors in CI/automated tests.

A -Werror command-line option is added to the kernel-doc script. When
this option is set, the script will return the number of warnings
found. The caller can then treat this positive return value as an
error and stop the build.

Using this command line option is however not straightforward when the
kernel-doc script is called from other scripts. To align with typical
kernel compilation or documentation generation, the Werror option is
also set by checking the KCFLAGS environment variable, or if
KDOC_WERROR is defined, as in the following examples:

KCFLAGS="-Wall -Werror" make W=1 sound/
KCFLAGS="-Wall -Werror" make W=1 drivers/soundwire/
KDOC_WERROR=1 make htmldocs

Note that in the last example the documentation build does not stop,
only an additional log is provided.

Credits to Randy Dunlap for suggesting the use of environment variables.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 9f2b463ad8 scripts: kernel-doc: accept blank lines on parameter description
Sphinx is very pedantic with respect to blank lines. Sometimes,
in order to make it to properly handle something, we need to
add a blank line. However, currently, any blank line inside a
kernel-doc comment like:

	/*
	 * @foo: bar
         *
	 *       foobar
	 *
	 * some description

will be considered as if "foobar" was part of the description.

This patch changes kernel-doc behavior. After it, foobar will
be considered as part of the parameter text. The description
will only be considered as such if it starts with:

zero spaces after asterisk:

	*foo

one space after asterisk:
	* foo

or have a explicit Description section:

	*   Description:

Mauro Carvalho Chehab b1e8e720b6 scripts: kernel-doc: accept negation like !@var
On a few places, it sometimes need to indicate a negation of a
parameter, like:

	!@fshared

This pattern happens, for example, at:

	kernel/futex.c

and it is perfectly valid. However, kernel-doc currently
transforms it into:

	!**fshared**

This won't do what it would be expected.

Fortunately, fixing the script is a simple matter of storing
the "!" before "@" and adding it after the bold markup, like:

	**!fshared**

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 76083982a5 scripts: kernel-doc: proper handle @foo->bar()
The pattern @foo->bar() is valid, as it can be used by a
function pointer inside a struct passed as a parameter.

Right now, it causes a warning:

	./drivers/firewire/core-transaction.c:606: WARNING: Inline strong start-string without end-string.

In this specific case, the kernel-doc markup is:

	/**
	 * fw_core_remove_address_handler() - unregister an address handler
	 * @handler: callback
	 *
	 * To be called in process context.
	 *
	 * When fw_core_remove_address_handler() returns, @handler->callback() is
	 * guaranteed to not run on any CPU anymore.
	 */

With seems valid on my eyes. So, instead of trying to hack
the kernel-doc markup, let's teach it about how to handle
such things. This should likely remove lots of other similar
warnings as well.

Jonathan Neuschäfer 65fb67bf73 scripts/kernel-doc: Add support for named variable macro arguments
Currently, when kernel-doc encounters a macro with a named variable
argument[1], such as this:

   #define hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(pos, head, member, cond...)

... it expects the variable argument to be documented as `cond...`,
rather than `cond`. This is semantically wrong, because the name (as
used in the macro body) is actually `cond`.

With this patch, kernel-doc will accept the name without dots (`cond`
in the example above) in doc comments, and warn if the name with dots
(`cond...`) is used and verbose mode[2] is enabled.

The support for the `cond...` syntax can be removed later, when the
documentation of all such macros has been switched to the new syntax.

Testing this patch on top of v5.4-rc6, `make htmldocs` shows a few
changes in log output and HTML output:

 1) The following warnings[3] are eliminated:

   ./include/linux/rculist.h:374: warning:
        Excess function parameter 'cond' description in 'list_for_each_entry_rcu'
   ./include/linux/rculist.h:651: warning:
        Excess function parameter 'cond' description in 'hlist_for_each_entry_rcu'

 2) For list_for_each_entry_rcu and hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, the
    correct description is shown

 3) Named variable arguments are shown without dots

André Almeida 872e6c47a0 kernel-doc: fix processing nested structs with attributes
The current regular expression for strip attributes of structs (and
for nested ones as well) also removes all whitespaces that may
surround the attribute. After that, the code will split structs and
iterate for each symbol separated by comma at the end of struct
definition (e.g. "} alias1, alias2;"). However, if the nested struct
does not have any alias and has an attribute, it will result in a
empty string at the closing bracket (e.g "};"). This will make the
split return nothing and $newmember will keep uninitialized. Fix
that, by ensuring that the attribute substitution will leave at least
one whitespace.

Peter Maydell 92bb29f9b2 scripts/kerneldoc: For Sphinx 3 use c:macro for macros with arguments
The kerneldoc script currently emits Sphinx markup for a macro with
arguments that uses the c:function directive. This is correct for
Sphinx versions earlier than Sphinx 3, where c:macro doesn't allow
documentation of macros with arguments and c:function is not picky
about the syntax of what it is passed. However, in Sphinx 3 the
c:macro directive was enhanced to support macros with arguments,
and c:function was made more picky about what syntax it accepted.

When kerneldoc is told that it needs to produce output for Sphinx
3 or later, make it emit c:function only for functions and c:macro
for macros with arguments. We assume that anything with a return
type is a function and anything without is a macro.

This fixes the Sphinx error:

Stefan Hajnoczi d73415a315 qemu/atomic.h: rename atomic_ to qatomic_
clang's C11 atomic_fetch_*() functions only take a C11 atomic type
pointer argument. QEMU uses direct types (int, etc) and this causes a
compiler error when a QEMU code calls these functions in a source file
that also included <stdatomic.h> via a system header file:

  $ CC=clang CXX=clang++ ./configure ... && make
  ../util/async.c:79:17: error: address argument to atomic operation must be a pointer to _Atomic type ('unsigned int *' invalid)

Avoid using atomic_*() names in QEMU's atomic.h since that namespace is
used by <stdatomic.h>. Prefix QEMU's APIs with 'q' so that atomic.h
and <stdatomic.h> can co-exist. I checked /usr/include on my machine and
searched GitHub for existing "qatomic_" users but there seem to be none.

This patch was generated using:

  $ git grep -h -o '\<atomic\(64\)\?_[a-z0-9_]\+' include/qemu/atomic.h | \
    sort -u >/tmp/changed_identifiers
  $ for identifier in $(</tmp/changed_identifiers); do
        sed -i "s%\<$identifier\>%q$identifier%g" \
            $(git grep -I -l "\<$identifier\>")
    done

I manually fixed line-wrap issues and misaligned rST tables.

which should have a ')' after the 'void *host' which is the
last argument to 'resized'.

Older versions of Sphinx don't try to parse the argumnet
to c:function, but Sphinx 3.0 does do this and will complain:

  /home/petmay01/linaro/qemu-from-laptop/qemu/docs/../include/exec/memory.h:834: WARNING: Error in declarator or parameters
  Invalid C declaration: Expecting "," or ")" in parameters, got "EOF". [error at 208]
    void memory_region_init_resizeable_ram (MemoryRegion * mr, struct Object * owner, const char * name, uint64_t size, uint64_t max_size, void (*resized) (const char*, uint64_t length, void *host, Error ** errp)
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------^

Add the missing close-paren.

Paolo Bonzini 4cf4179441 docs: tweak kernel-doc for QEMU coding standards
Surprisingly, QEMU does have a pretty consistent doc comment style and
it is not very different from the Linux kernel's.  Of the documentation
"sigils", only "#" separates the QEMU doc comment style from Linux's,
and it has 200+ instances vs. 6 for the kernel's '&struct foo' (all in
accel/tcg/translate-all.c), so it's clear that the two standards are
different in this respect.  In addition, our structs are typedefed and
recognized by CamelCase names.

Adjust kernel-doc's parser for these two aspects of the QEMU coding
standards.  The patch has been valid, with hardly any change, for over
two years, so it should not be an issue to keep kernel-doc in sync with
the Linux copy.

Paolo Bonzini e2c546358f docs: import Linux kernel-doc script and extension
Import Linux's kernel-doc script as of commit 15e2544ed38a1e, as well
as the Sphinx extension to call kernel-doc according to the arguments
and parameters given to a reStructuredText directive.

The kernel-doc extension accepts a filename, which is relative to
the QEMU source tree root.  The extension also notifies Sphinx about the
document dependency on the file, causing the document to be rebuilt when
the file has been changed.
