Subject: [PATCH v2] fpga: dfl: fme: revise kernel-doc comments for some functions

From: Xu Yilun <[email protected]>

This amends commit 782d8e61b5d6 ("fpga: dfl: kernel-doc corrections"),
which separately addressed the kernel-doc warnings below. Add a more
precise description of the feature argument to dfl_fme_create_mgr(),
and also use plural in the description of dfl_fme_destroy_bridges().

lkp reported 2 build warnings:

drivers/fpga/dfl/dfl-fme-pr.c:175: warning: Function parameter or member 'feature' not described in 'dfl_fme_create_mgr'

>> drivers/fpga/dfl/dfl-fme-pr.c:280: warning: expecting prototype for
>> dfl_fme_destroy_bridge(). Prototype was for dfl_fme_destroy_bridges()
>> instead

Fixes: 29de76240e86 ("fpga: dfl: fme: add partial reconfiguration sub feature support")

Why still list the 2 warnings here? Do they still exsit even with commit
782d8e61b5d6 ("fpga: dfl: kernel-doc corrections") ?

You are still trying to fix this commit?


I'm sorry, but please do check and test your patches before submit.
Re-submitting quickly but full of errors makes people doubt if you are
really serious about your patches. At least, I do have doubt if you did
tests for all your patches, or if your test could sufficiently prove the
issue exists or fixed.

Do not just passively waiting for reviewers to find out the issue. Maybe
you should again read the Documentation/process/*.rst


Back to this patch, I think you can just drop it. Because:
1. The previous fix works fine, the doc doesn't tell anything wrong.
2. The 2 functions are internal, no outside users. Little value for the
kernel doc.

So no need a dedicated fix patch. The preferred practice is you point
out the nits when the previous patch is not yet merged. Or you by the
way include these fixes in some new patches which relates to these
functions.

Thanks,
Yilun

I included the commit message from your original patch in full to show
the initial motivation for the patch. As described, the issue has been
addressed already; your patch merely polishes the the doc strings.

Apologies for sending the v1 patch, which had been rebased incorrectly.
The v2 patch is correct but can be dropped as you stated.

Apologies again for sending the v1 patch. I was not intending for
kernel reviewers to find any issues with the patch.

Thanks for the review, I will drop the patch in the downstream tree.

The out-of-date initial motivation, the commit 782d8e61b5d6, the listed
logs are not related to your change. It shouldn't appear in this patch.

Remember the commit message goes into git if the patch is merged. People
get confused about these information.

> addressed already; your patch merely polishes the the doc strings.

When you decide to submit a patch public, it is *YOUR* patch. You should
not list all the history and expect the original author decides what to
do.

This is not about the v1 patch, every new comer makes mistake. I just
don't like that you sent patches too quickly but didn't address the
previous concern.
