Subject: kbuild: separate kerneldoc warnings from compiler warnings
Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2020 14:52:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <591473.1592679153@turing-police> (raw)

This patch introduces a new build flag 'K=1' which controls whether kerneldoc
warnings should be issued, separating them from the compiler warnings that W=
controls.

Signed-off-by: Valdis Kletnieks <valdis.kletnieks@vt.edu>
