[PATCH v3 0/4] serial: RS485 kerneldoc/documentation improvements

[Ilpo Järvinen]

RS485 documentation improvements. While doing the kerneldoc conversion,
a few other items came up so they're now included to this series.

v3:
- More fixes to kernel doc formatting (thanks to Jiri)
- Added a few other related improvements

v2:
- Include serial_rs485 into documentation
- Add * to multi-line flag descriptions


Ilpo Järvinen (4):
  serial: Convert serial_rs485 to kernel doc
  Documentation: rs485: Link reference properly
  Documentation: rs485: Mention uart_get_rs485_mode()
  Documentation: rs485: Fix struct referencing

I don't see definition of fields after @delay_rts_after_send in the
htmldocs output.

The last two items are rendered as bold text instead (maybe due to missing
fields rendering above?)

Thanks.

So it seems, this one I had missed. I guess the reason is that those 
members are inside anonymous unions. But the formatting follows what 
is documented here AFAICT:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/doc-guide/kernel-doc.html#nested-structs-unions

Kerneldoc doesn't seem to live up to what is documented about it. It's a 
bit ironic that documentation system fails to document even itself to 
sufficient level, and what's worse, seems to be full of faulty examples.

Any suggestions how to make it work?

It just goes into some random formatting mode here. Even if I remove those 
field markers (@) it doesn't do formatting differently so your guesss is 
wrong.

I found now a way to make it work though. It works when I put the whole 
description on a single line but it comes at the cost of removing the 
alignment of those "-". The other way to make it work would be like this:

* * %SER_RS485_ADDR_RECV - Receive address filter (enables @addr_recv).
    Requires %SER_RS485_ADDRB.

...And that's no good. I guess the single-line approach is an acceptable 
compromise for this case.

Nevermind, I figured out where the problem is (my incorrect use of

Feels like this should be before the previous patch and actually have
a Fixes tag.
