As part of my review of patches coming from the Qualcomm Innovation
Center I check to make sure that no checkpatch or kernel-doc issues
are introduced. An upcoming patch will propose a modification to
include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h. My review process flagged both
checkpatch and kernel-doc issues in the file, but these are
pre-existing issues. So this series fixes those pre-existing issues.

Thanks Jeff.

Can you say what you're running for this? I've been running kernel-doc
and builds with W=1 for a long time, and not seen issues. Is this
perhaps checks from a newer kernel (we're currently on 6.8-rc1 for
$reasons)?

Thanks,
johannes

FWIW I also check for kernel-doc warnings every time I push to wireless
or wireless-next and I don't see anything, so it's not kernel version
related. I think I'll add the Jeff's tests to my scripts, once he
provides them, so that we can catch these early.

Of course it would be even better to have patchwork tests for stuff like
this. Here's hoping we eventually implement those :)

files=$(git diff --name-only $base HEAD)
scripts/kernel-doc -Werror -none $files
scripts/checkpatch.pl --file $files

Thanks. So my plan is to run this in my check script:

scripts/kernel-doc -none \
include/linux/ieee80211.h \
include/net/cfg80211.h \
include/net/ieee80211_radiotap.h \
include/net/iw_handler.h \
include/net/wext.h \
include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h \
include/uapi/linux/wireless.h \
include/net/mac80211.h \
include/linux/rfkill.h \
include/uapi/linux/rfkill.h

Did I miss anything important?

Although include/linux/rfkill.h has three warnings:

include/linux/rfkill.h:104: warning: This comment starts with '/**', but isn't a kernel-doc comment. Refer Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst
 * rfkill_pause_polling(struct rfkill *rfkill)
include/linux/rfkill.h:114: warning: This comment starts with '/**', but isn't a kernel-doc comment. Refer Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst
 * rfkill_resume_polling(struct rfkill *rfkill)
include/linux/rfkill.h:331: warning: Function parameter or struct member 'rfkill' not described in 'rfkill_get_led_trigger_name'

Any volunteers to fix those? :)
