* scripts: kernel-doc: Always increment warnings counterNiklas Söderlund2022-06-131-47/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some warnings do not increment the warnings counter making the behavior of running kernel-doc with -Werror unlogical as some warnings will be generated but not treated as errors. Fix this by creating a helper function that always incrementing the warnings counter every time a warning is emitted. There is one location in get_sphinx_version() where a warning is not touched as it concerns the execution environment of the kernel-doc and not the documentation being processed. Incrementing the counter only have effect when running kernel-doc in either verbose mode (-v or environment variable KBUILD_VERBOSE) or when treating warnings as errors (-Werror or environment variable KDOC_WERROR). In both cases the number of warnings printed is printed to stderr and for the later the exit code of kernel-doc is non-zero if warnings where encountered. Simple test case to demo one of the warnings, $ cat test.c /** * foo() - Description */ int bar(); # Without this change $ ./scripts/kernel-doc -Werror -none test.c test.c:4: warning: expecting prototype for foo(). Prototype was for bar() instead # With this change $ ./scripts/kernel-doc -Werror -none test.c test.c:4: warning: expecting prototype for foo(). Prototype was for bar() instead 1 warnings as Errors Signed-off-by: Niklas Söderlund <niklas.soderlund@corigine.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220613090510.3088294-1-niklas.soderlund@corigine.com Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

* docs: scripts/kernel-doc: Detect absence of FILE argAkira Yokosawa2022-02-241-8/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when there is no FILE argument following a switch such as -man, -rst, or -none, kernel-doc exits with a warning from perl (long msg folded): Use of uninitialized value $ARGV[0] in pattern match (m//) at ./scripts/kernel-doc line 438. , which is unhelpful. Improve the behavior by adding a check at the bottom of parsing loop. If the argument is absent, display help text and exit with the code of 1 (via usage()).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | What for? To improve the script maintainability. 1. License As stated by Jonathan Corbet in the reply to my version 1, the SPDX line is enough. 2. The to-do list comment As suggested by Jonathan Corbet in reply to my version 3, this section doesn't need to be transitioned. And so it is removed for clarity. 3. The historical changelog comments As suggested by Jonathan Corbet in a reply to v3, this section can go. I wanted to keep it, but since it doesn't contain copyright notices, let's just have it clean and simple. 4. The "format of comments" comment block As suggested by Jani Nikula in a reply to my first version of this transformation, Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst can serve as the information hub for comment formatting. The section DESCRIPTION already points there, so the original comment block can just be removed.

* | stddef: Introduce DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helperKees Cook2021-10-181-0/+2

This would normally be done with multiple flexible arrays in a union, but since GCC and Clang don't (on the surface) allow this, there have been many open-coded workarounds, usually involving neighboring 0-element arrays at the end of a structure. For example, instead of something like this: struct thing { ... union { struct type1 foo[]; struct type2 bar[]; }; }; code works around the compiler with: struct thing { ... struct type1 foo[0]; struct type2 bar[]; }; Another case is when a flexible array is wanted as the single member within a struct (which itself is usually in a union). For example, this would be worked around as: union many { ... struct { struct type3 baz[0]; }; }; These kinds of work-arounds cause problems with size checks against such zero-element arrays (for example when building with -Warray-bounds and -Wzero-length-bounds, and with the coming FORTIFY_SOURCE improvements), so they must all be converted to "real" flexible arrays, avoiding warnings like this: fs/hpfs/anode.c: In function 'hpfs_add_sector_to_btree': fs/hpfs/anode.c:209:27: warning: array subscript 0 is outside the bounds of an interior zero-length array 'struct bplus_internal_node[0]' [-Wzero-length-bounds] 209 | anode->btree.u.internal[0].down = cpu_to_le32(a); | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~ In file included from fs/hpfs/hpfs_fn.h:26, from fs/hpfs/anode.c:10: fs/hpfs/hpfs.h:412:32: note: while referencing 'internal' 412 | struct bplus_internal_node internal[0]; /* (internal) 2-word entries giving | ^~~~~~~~ drivers/net/can/usb/etas_es58x/es58x_fd.c: In function 'es58x_fd_tx_can_msg': drivers/net/can/usb/etas_es58x/es58x_fd.c:360:35: warning: array subscript 65535 is outside the bounds of an interior zero-length array 'u8[0]' {aka 'unsigned char[]'} [-Wzero-length-bounds] 360 | tx_can_msg = (typeof(tx_can_msg))&es58x_fd_urb_cmd->raw_msg[msg_len]; | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In file included from drivers/net/can/usb/etas_es58x/es58x_core.h:22, from drivers/net/can/usb/etas_es58x/es58x_fd.c:17: drivers/net/can/usb/etas_es58x/es58x_fd.h:231:6: note: while referencing 'raw_msg' 231 | u8 raw_msg[0]; | ^~~~~~~ However, it _is_ entirely possible to have one or more flexible arrays in a struct or union: it just has to be in another struct. And since it cannot be alone in a struct, such a struct must have at least 1 other named member -- but that member can be zero sized. Wrap all this nonsense into the new DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() in support of having flexible arrays in unions (or alone in a struct). As with struct_group(), since this is needed in UAPI headers as well, implement the core there, with a non-UAPI wrapper. Additionally update kernel-doc to understand its existence. https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/137 Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: "Gustavo A. R.

The generally accepted design pattern in C is to use a named sub-struct: struct foo { int one; struct { int two; int three, four; } thing; int five; }; This would allow for traditional references and sizing: memcpy(&dst.thing, &src.thing, sizeof(dst.thing)); However, doing this would mean that referencing struct members enclosed by such named structs would always require including the sub-struct name in identifiers: do_something(dst.thing.three); This has tended to be quite inflexible, especially when such groupings need to be added to established code which causes huge naming churn. Three workarounds exist in the kernel for this problem, and each have other negative properties. To avoid the naming churn, there is a design pattern of adding macro aliases for the named struct: #define f_three thing.three This ends up polluting the global namespace, and makes it difficult to search for identifiers. Another common work-around in kernel code avoids the pollution by avoiding the named struct entirely, instead identifying the group's boundaries using either a pair of empty anonymous structs of a pair of zero-element arrays: struct foo { int one; struct { } start; int two; int three, four; struct { } finish; int five; }; struct foo { int one; int start[0]; int two; int three, four; int finish[0]; int five; }; This allows code to avoid needing to use a sub-struct named for member references within the surrounding structure, but loses the benefits of being able to actually use such a struct, making it rather fragile. Using these requires open-coded calculation of sizes and offsets. The efforts made to avoid common mistakes include lots of comments, or adding various BUILD_BUG_ON()s. Such code is left with no way for the compiler to reason about the boundaries (e.g. the "start" object looks like it's 0 bytes in length), making bounds checking depend on open-coded calculations: if (length > offsetof(struct foo, finish) - offsetof(struct foo, start)) return -EINVAL; memcpy(&dst.start, &src.start, offsetof(struct foo, finish) - offsetof(struct foo, start)); However, the vast majority of places in the kernel that operate on groups of members do so without any identification of the grouping, relying either on comments or implicit knowledge of the struct contents, which is even harder for the compiler to reason about, and results in even more fragile manual sizing, usually depending on member locations outside of the region (e.g. to copy "two" and "three", use the start of "four" to find the size): BUILD_BUG_ON((offsetof(struct foo, four) < offsetof(struct foo, two)) || (offsetof(struct foo, four) < offsetof(struct foo, three)); if (length > offsetof(struct foo, four) - offsetof(struct foo, two)) return -EINVAL; memcpy(&dst.two, &src.two, length); In order to have a regular programmatic way to describe a struct region that can be used for references and sizing, can be examined for bounds checking, avoids forcing the use of intermediate identifiers, and avoids polluting the global namespace, introduce the struct_group() macro. This macro wraps the member declarations to create an anonymous union of an anonymous struct (no intermediate name) and a named struct (for references and sizing): struct foo { int one; struct_group(thing, int two; int three, four; ); int five; }; if (length > sizeof(src.thing)) return -EINVAL; memcpy(&dst.thing, &src.thing, length); do_something(dst.three); There are some rare cases where the resulting struct_group() needs attributes added, so struct_group_attr() is also introduced to allow for specifying struct attributes (e.g. __align(x) or __packed). Additionally, there are places where such declarations would like to have the struct be tagged, so struct_group_tagged() is added. Given there is a need for a handful of UAPI uses too, the underlying __struct_group() macro has been defined in UAPI so it can be used there too. To avoid confusing scripts/kernel-doc, hide the macro from its struct parsing. Co-developed-by: Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com> Signed-off-by: Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com> Acked-by: Gustavo A.

* scripts/kernel-doc: Override -Werror from KCFLAGS with KDOC_WERRORLaurent Pinchart2021-08-121-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 2c12c8103d8f ("scripts/kernel-doc: optionally treat warnings as errors"), the kernel-doc script will treat warnings as errors when one of the following conditions is true: - The KDOC_WERROR environment variable is non-zero - The KCFLAGS environment variable contains -Werror - The -Werror parameter is passed to kernel-doc Checking KCFLAGS for -Werror allows piggy-backing on the C compiler error handling. However, unlike the C compiler, kernel-doc has no provision for -Wno-error. This makes compiling the kernel with -Werror (to catch regressions) and W=1 (to enable more checks) always fail, without the same possibility as offered by the C compiler to treating some selected warnings as warnings despite the global -Werror setting. To fix this, evaluate KDOC_WERROR after KCFLAGS, which allows disabling the warnings-as-errors behaviour of kernel-doc selectively by setting KDOC_WERROR=0.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently kernel-doc does not identify some cases of probable kernel doc comments, for e.g. pointer used as declaration type for identifier, space separated identifier, etc. Some example of these cases in files can be: i)" * journal_t * jbd2_journal_init_dev() - creates and initialises a journal structure" in fs/jbd2/journal.c ii) "* dget, dget_dlock - get a reference to a dentry" in include/linux/dcache.h iii) " * DEFINE_SEQLOCK(sl) - Define a statically allocated seqlock_t" in include/linux/seqlock.h Also improve identification for non-kerneldoc comments. For e.g., i) " * The following functions allow us to read data using a swap map" in kernel/power/swap.c does follow the kernel-doc like syntax, but the content inside does not adheres to the expected format.

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.

* scripts/kernel-doc: optionally treat warnings as errorsPierre-Louis Bossart2020-07-311-1/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
