Documentation/HOWTO: add cross-references to other documents Add cross references for the documents mentioned at HOWTO and are under the Documentation/ directory, using the ReST notation. It should be noticed that HOWTO also mentions the /README file. We opted to not touch it, for now, as making it build on Sphinx would require it to be moved to a Documentation/foo directory.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

Documentation/CodingStyle: replace underline markups Sphinx doesn't accept underline markups by purpose. While there are ways to support underline via CSS, this won't be portable with non-html outputs. As we want CodingStyle to do emphasis, replace _foo_ by **foo**, using bold emphasis.

CodingStyle: Document the exception of not splitting user-visible strings, for grepping Patch reviewers now recommend not splitting long user-visible strings, such as printk messages, even if they exceed 80 columns. This avoids breaking grep. However, that recommendation did not actually appear anywhere in Documentation/CodingStyle.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

CodingStyle: add some more error handling guidelines I added a paragraph on choosing label names, and updated the example code to use a better label name. I also cleaned up the example code to more modern style by moving the allocation out of the initializer and changing the NULL check. Perhaps the most common type of error handling bug in the kernel is "one err bugs". CodingStyle already says that we should "avoid nesting" by using error labels and one err style error handling tends to have multiple indent levels, so this was already bad style. But I've added a new paragraph explaining how to avoid one err bugs by using multiple error labels which is, hopefully, more clear.

CodingStyle: add some more error handling guidelines I added a paragraph on choosing label names, and updated the example code to use a better label name. I also cleaned up the example code to more modern style by moving the allocation out of the initializer and changing the NULL check. Perhaps the most common type of error handling bug in the kernel is "one err bugs". CodingStyle already says that we should "avoid nesting" by using error labels and one err style error handling tends to have multiple indent levels, so this was already bad style. But I've added a new paragraph explaining how to avoid one err bugs by using multiple error labels which is, hopefully, more clear.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

As we want this document to be parsed by Sphinx, instead of using "foo", use ``foo`` for the names that are literal, because it is an usual typographic convention to use monospaced fonts for functions and language commands on documents, and we're following such convention on the other ReST books.

We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

clang-format: add configuration file clang-format is a tool to format C/C++/... code according to a set of rules and heuristics. Like most tools, it is not perfect nor covers every single case, but it is good enough to be helpful. In particular, it is useful for quickly re-formatting blocks of code automatically, for reviewing full files in order to spot coding style mistakes, typos and possible improvements. It is also handy for sorting ``#includes``, for aligning variables and macros, for reflowing text and other similar tasks. It also serves as a teaching tool/guide for newcomers. The tool itself has been already included in the repositories of popular Linux distributions for a long time. The rules in this file are intended for clang-format >= 4, which is easily available in most distributions. This commit adds the configuration file that contains the rules that the tool uses to know how to format the code according to the kernel coding style. This gives us several advantages: * clang-format works out of the box with reasonable defaults; avoiding that everyone has to re-do the configuration. * Everyone agrees (eventually) on what is the most useful default configuration for most of the kernel. * If it becomes commonplace among kernel developers, clang-format may feel compelled to support us better. They already recognize the Linux kernel and its style in their documentation and in one of the style sub-options. Some of clang-format's features relevant for the kernel are: * Uses clang's tooling support behind the scenes to parse and rewrite the code. It is not based on ad-hoc regexps. * Supports reasonably well the Linux kernel coding style. * Fast enough to be used at the press of a key. * There are already integrations (either built-in or third-party) for many common editors used by kernel developers (e.g. vim, emacs, Sublime, Atom...) that allow you to format an entire file or, more usefully, just your selection. * Able to parse unified diffs -- you can, for instance, reformat only the lines changed by a git commit. * Able to reflow text comments as well. * Widely supported and used by hundreds of developers in highly complex projects and organizations (e.g. the LLVM project itself, Chromium, WebKit, Google, Mozilla...). Therefore, it will be supported for a long time.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

Documentation/CodingStyle: use the proper tag for verbatim font On Sphinx/ReST notation, ``foo`` means that foo will be will be marked as inline literal, effectively making it to be presented as a monospaced font. As we want this document to be parsed by Sphinx, instead of using "foo", use ``foo`` for the names that are literal, because it is an usual typographic convention to use monospaced fonts for functions and language commands on documents, and we're following such convention on the other ReST books.

Documentation: expand/clarify debug documentation The pr_debug() and related debug print macros all differ from the normal pr_XXX() macros, in that the normal ones print unconditionally, while the debug macros are compiled out unless DEBUG is defined or CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is set. This isn't obvious, and the only way to find this out is either to review the actual printk.h code or to read CodingStyle, and the message there doesn't highlight the fact. Change Documentation/CodingStyle to clearly indicate that pr_debug() and related debug printing macros behave differently than all other pr_XXX() macros, and attempt to clarify when and where the different debug printing methods might be used. Add short comment to printk.h above the pr_XXX() macros indicating that while these macros print unconditionally, pr_debug() does not.

Documentation/CodingStyle: improve text layout Try to make coding style documentation look a bit more readable and consistent with the following: - indent every code example in C to first tab-stop; - surround every code example with empty lines, both top and bottom; - remove empty lines where text looked way too spare; - do not indent examples in elisp and kconfig; - do not do any non-whitespace changes.

Documentation/CodingStyle: use the proper tag for verbatim font On Sphinx/ReST notation, ``foo`` means that foo will be will be marked as inline literal, effectively making it to be presented as a monospaced font. As we want this document to be parsed by Sphinx, instead of using "foo", use ``foo`` for the names that are literal, because it is an usual typographic convention to use monospaced fonts for functions and language commands on documents, and we're following such convention on the other ReST books.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
