+Use ``@foo`` to reference a name in the schema. This is an rST
+extension. It is rendered the same way as ````foo````, but carries

+Markup pitfalls
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+A blank line is required between list items and paragraphs. Without
+it, the list may not be recognized, resulting in garbled output. Good
+example::
+
+ # An event's state is modified if:
+ #
+ # - its name matches the @name pattern, and
+ # - if @vcpu is given, the event has the "vcpu" property.
+
+Without the blank line this would be a single paragraph.
+
+Indentation matters. Bad example::
+
+ # @none: None (no memory side cache in this proximity domain,
+ # or cache associativity unknown)
+
+The description is parsed as a definition list with term "None (no
+memory side cache in this proximity domain," and definition "or cache
+associativity unknown)".
+
+Section tags are case-sensitive and end with a colon. Good example::
+
+ # Since: 7.1
+
+Bad examples (all ordinary paragraphs)::
+
+ # since: 7.1
+
+ # Since 7.1
+
+ # Since : 7.1
+
+Likewise, member descriptions require a colon. Good example::
+
+ # @interface-id: Interface ID
+
+Bad examples (all ordinary paragraphs)::
+
+ # @interface-id Interface ID
+
+ # @interface-id : Interface ID
+
+Undocumented members are not flagged, yet. Instead, the generated
+documentation describes them as "Not documented". Think twice before
+adding more undocumented members.
+
+When you change documentation comments, please check the generated
+documentation comes out as intended!
