Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Documentation: core-api: Add error pointer functions to kernel-api
Date: Tue,  9 May 2023 10:55:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230509175543.2065835-4-james@equiv.tech> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230509175543.2065835-1-james@equiv.tech>

Bring the error pointer functions (e.g. ERR_PTR(), PTR_ERR()) into
the docs build so that they can be cross-referenced elsewhere.

List them as kernel library functions in the kernel-api document.
Nowhere else seems to fit, and they need to go *somewhere*.
