[PATCH 0/5] gpio: uapi: documentation improvements

[Kent Gibson]

This is a series of minor clarifications and formatting tidy ups for
the GPIO uAPI kernel doc.

The series is intended as a companion to my character device
uAPI documentation series, but makes sense on its own too.

The patches are self contained and trivial so not much to add here.

Cheers,
Kent.

[PATCH 1/5] gpio: uapi: improve description of fd fields

[Kent Gibson]

Only a successful operation modifies fd fields, but the current
documentation wording could be taken to imply that a positive fd
value after an ioctl() returns indicates a success.

Reword documentation to clarify that the fd is only valid after a
successful operation.

[PATCH 2/5] gpio: uapi: clarify hte references

[Kent Gibson]

The full name of the HTE subsystem is "hardware timestamping engine",
so correct references and highlight that this refers to the HTE
subsystem.

Extend the description of struct gpio_v2_line_event to clarify that
the timestamp_ns is sourced from the HTE if the
GPIO_V2_LINE_FLAG_EVENT_CLOCK_HTE is set.

[PATCH 5/5] gpio: uapi: clarify using v2 rather than v1

[Kent Gibson]

The documentation contains notes like
 This struct is part of ABI v1 and is deprecated.
 Use struct gpio_v2_line_info instead.

This could be interpreted to mean the structs can be directly
substituted in v1 calls.  Clarify that the user should use the
corresponding v2 ioctl() and structs.

The first one I personally don't understand why, but I'm not a native speaker!
I believe, it's correct, although the original version seems okay to me.

The problem isn't the language, unless you mean I'm explaining poorly, it
is the logic.  The original says "zero or negative value means error", but
in case of an error the kernel does not actually set the fd.  So if the
user sends a request containing a positive fd they might incorrectly infer
that the positive fd being returned implies success.

The new wording is that the returned fd is only valid on success.

And thanks for the review.

Cheers,
Kent.

My point is to make documentation less cryptic (= less programming
language stylish).
If you can rephrase it that way - nice! Otherwise, I leave this to Linus.

I had replied to Andy's comments - I'm prefer with my version than his
suggestion:

"I'm not keen on that alternative as what it suggests is actually a
pointer comparison, and even if the user realizes that they may instead
use "strlen(label) == 0", when they shouldn't be assuming that a null
terminator is present in the array.  I avoided mentioning "string" and
kept it in terms of the char array for the same reason."

[PATCH 0/5] gpio: uapi: documentation improvements

[Kent Gibson]

I'm intending to add some GPIO chardev documentation to
Documentation/admin-guide/gpio/chardev.rst (or perhaps
Documentation/userspace-api/??), but that is taking longer than I'd like,
so in the meantime here is a collection of minor documentation tidy-ups
and improvements to the kernel-doc that I've made along the way.
Hopefully nothing controversial - mainly formatting improvements,
and a couple of minor wording changes.

Cheers,
Kent.

  gpio: uapi: comment consistency
  gpio: uapi: kernel-doc formatting improvements
  gpio: uapi: remove whitespace
