From 9f2b463ad8beb76acaf3f5d1654b660592760e68 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2020 17:52:49 +0100 Subject: 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: Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/c07d2862792d75a2691d69c9eceb7b89a0164cc0.1586881715.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini Message-Id: <20201117165312.118257-7-pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini --- scripts/kernel-doc | 35 +++++++++++++++++++++++------------ 1 file changed, 23 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/kernel-doc b/scripts/kernel-doc index e4b3cd4..95f2d7a 100755 --- a/scripts/kernel-doc +++ b/scripts/kernel-doc @@ -334,13 +334,14 @@ my $lineprefix=""; # Parser states use constant { - STATE_NORMAL => 0, # normal code - STATE_NAME => 1, # looking for function name - STATE_BODY_MAYBE => 2, # body - or maybe more description - STATE_BODY => 3, # the body of the comment - STATE_PROTO => 4, # scanning prototype - STATE_DOCBLOCK => 5, # documentation block - STATE_INLINE => 6, # gathering documentation outside main block + STATE_NORMAL => 0, # normal code + STATE_NAME => 1, # looking for function name + STATE_BODY_MAYBE => 2, # body - or maybe more description + STATE_BODY => 3, # the body of the comment + STATE_BODY_WITH_BLANK_LINE => 4, # the body, which has a blank line + STATE_PROTO => 5, # scanning prototype + STATE_DOCBLOCK => 6, # documentation block + STATE_INLINE => 7, # gathering doc outside main block }; my $state; my $in_doc_sect; @@ -1987,6 +1988,12 @@ sub process_body($$) { } } + if ($state == STATE_BODY_WITH_BLANK_LINE && /^\s*\*\s?\S/) { + dump_section($file, $section, $contents); + $section = $section_default; + $contents = ""; + } + if (/$doc_sect/i) { # case insensitive for supported section names $newsection = $1; $newcontents = $2; @@ -2040,18 +2047,21 @@ sub process_body($$) { $state = STATE_PROTO; $brcount = 0; } elsif (/$doc_content/) { - # miguel-style comment kludge, look for blank lines after - # @parameter line to signify start of description if ($1 eq "") { - if ($section =~ m/^@/ || $section eq $section_context) { + if ($section eq $section_context) { dump_section($file, $section, $contents); $section = $section_default; $contents = ""; $new_start_line = $.; + $state = STATE_BODY; } else { + if ($section ne $section_default) { + $state = STATE_BODY_WITH_BLANK_LINE; + } else { + $state = STATE_BODY; + } $contents .= "\n"; } - $state = STATE_BODY; } elsif ($state == STATE_BODY_MAYBE) { # Continued declaration purpose chomp($declaration_purpose); @@ -2203,7 +2213,8 @@ sub process_file($) { process_normal(); } elsif ($state == STATE_NAME) { process_name($file, $_); - } elsif ($state == STATE_BODY || $state == STATE_BODY_MAYBE) { + } elsif ($state == STATE_BODY || $state == STATE_BODY_MAYBE || + $state == STATE_BODY_WITH_BLANK_LINE) { process_body($file, $_); } elsif ($state == STATE_INLINE) { # scanning for inline parameters process_inline($file, $_); -- cgit v1.1
