2018-01-01errseq: Add to documentation treeMatthew Wilcox1-0/+1
- Move errseq.rst into core-api - Add errseq to the core-api index - Promote the header to a more prominent header type, otherwise we get three entries in the table of contents. - Reformat the table to look nicer and be a little more proportional in terms of horizontal width per bit (the SF bit is still disproportionately large, but there's no way to fix that). - Include errseq kernel-doc in the errseq.rst - Neaten some kernel-doc markup Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2017-12-21doc: convert printk-formats.txt to rstTobin C. Harding1-0/+1
Documentation/printk-formats.txt is a candidate for conversion to ReStructuredText format. Some effort has already been made to do this conversion even thought the suffix is currently .txt Changes required to complete conversion - Move printk-formats.txt to core-api/printk-formats.rst - Add entry to Documentation/core-api/index.rst - Remove entry from Documentation/00-INDEX - Fix minor grammatical errors. - Order heading adornments as suggested by rst docs. - Use 'Passed by reference' uniformly. - Update pointer documentation around %px specifier. - Fix erroneous double backticks (to commas). - Remove extraneous double backticks (suggested by Jonathan Corbet). - Simplify documentation for kobject.

2017-12-11docs: refcount_t documentationElena Reshetova1-0/+1
Some functions from refcount_t API provide different memory ordering guarantees that their atomic counterparts. This adds a document outlining these differences ( Documentation/core-api/refcount-vs-atomic.rst) as well as some other minor improvements.

2017-08-30doc: Add documentation for the genalloc subsystemJonathan Corbet1-0/+1
Genalloc/genpool has kerneldoc comments, but nothing has ever been pulled into the docs themselves. Here's a first attempt, repurposed from an article I wrote at https://lwn.net/Articles/729653/. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

The current CPU hotplug is outdated. During the update to what we currently have I rewrote it partly and moved to sphinx format.

2016-11-29doc: Sphinxify the tracepoint docbookJonathan Corbet1-1/+2
Convert the tracepoint docbook template to RST and add it to the core-api manual. No changes to the actual text beyond the mechanical formatting conversion. Cc: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> Cc: William Cohen <wcohen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2016-11-29doc: Convert the debugobjects DocBook template to sphinxJonathan Corbet1-2/+14
A couple of the most minor heading tweaks, otherwise no changes to the text itself beyond the mechanical conversion. Note that the inclusion of the kerneldoc comments from the source has never worked, since exported symbols were asked for and none of those functions are exported to modules. It doesn't work here either :) Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
