2017-12-21i2c: update i2c-dev.h warning in documentationCengiz C1-7/+10
`Documentation/i2c/dev-interface` gives examples for accessing i2c from userspace. There's a note that warns developers about the two `i2c-dev.h` header files which were shipped with the kernel and i2c-tools separately. However, following i2c-tools commits suggest that the header files are now identical (in functionality) and `i2c_*` helper functions are now defined in a separate header called `i2c/smbus.h`, which is distributed with i2c-tools: commit 652619121974 ("Minimize differences with kernel flavor") commit 93caf007f4cb ("Move SMBus helper functions to include/i2c/smbus.h") Thus, I've converted the warning paragraph into a historical note and updated the suggested header files.

2017-12-21Fixed typo in onewire generic docGergo Huszty1-1/+1
Onewire devices has 6 byte long unique serial numbers, 1 byte family code and 1 byte CRC. Linux sysfs presents the device folder in the form of familyID-deviceID, so CRC is not shown. The consequence is that the device serial number is always a 12 long hex-string, but doc says 13 in one place. This is corrected by this change.

2017-12-11doc: add maintainer bookTobin C. Harding5-0/+233
There is currently very little documentation in the kernel on maintainer level tasks. In particular there are no documents on creating pull requests to submit to Linus. Quoting Greg Kroah-Hartman on LKML: Anyway, this actually came up at the kernel summit / maintainer meeting a few weeks ago, in that "how do I make a good pull request to Linus" is something we need to document. Here's what I do, and it seems to work well, so maybe we should turn it into the start of the documentation for how to do it. (quote references: kernel summit, Europe 2017) Create a new kernel documentation book 'how to be a maintainer' (suggested by Jonathan Corbet). Add chapters on 'configuring git' and 'creating a pull request'. Most of the content was written by Linus Torvalds and Greg Kroah-Hartman in discussion on LKML. This is stated at the start of one of the chapters and the original email thread is referenced in 'pull-requests.rst'. Signed-off-by: Tobin C.

On media, we now have an struct declared with: struct lirc_fh { struct list_head list; struct rc_dev *rc; int carrier_low; bool send_timeout_reports; DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR(rawir, unsigned int); DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR(scancodes, struct lirc_scancode); wait_queue_head_t wait_poll; u8 send_mode; u8 rec_mode; }; gpiolib.c has a similar declaration with DECLARE_KFIFO(). Currently, those produce the following error: ./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: No description found for parameter 'int' ./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: No description found for parameter 'lirc_scancode' ./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: Excess struct member 'rawir' description in 'lirc_fh' ./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: Excess struct member 'scancodes' description in 'lirc_fh' ../drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c:601: warning: No description found for parameter '16' ../drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c:601: warning: Excess struct member 'events' description in 'lineevent_state' So, teach kernel-doc how to parse DECLARE_KFIFO() and DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR().
