[PATCH] docs: kdoc: strip DOMAIN_NS() wrapper in function prototypes

[PATCH] docs: kdoc: strip DOMAIN_NS() wrapper in function prototypes

[Omokefe Emmanuel Onanaroghene]

kernel-doc fails to parse functions whose names are wrapped in the
DOMAIN_NS() namespace macro, e.g. in
drivers/iommu/generic_pt/iommu_pt.h:217:

  ... expecting prototype for iova_to_phys(). Prototype was for
  DOMAIN_NS() instead

function_xforms is the designated place for unwrapping function-name
macros, but it has no entry for DOMAIN_NS(), so the macro name is kept
as the prototype and the real name leaks into the parameter list.

Add a transform expanding DOMAIN_NS(op) to op, following the existing
DEFINE_IDTENTRY_IRQ precedent.

Add a regression test for the wrapped iova_to_phys() declaration.

Neither of these patches applies to docs-next...what did you base them
on?

Hi Jon,

I had based both patches on mainline rather than docs-next. I have
rebased both patches on top of docs-next and sent a v2 for both:

- https://lore.kernel.org/all/20261014223134.14772-1-emmaonana18@gmail.com/
- https://lore.kernel.org/all/20261014223437.16164-1-emmaonana18@gmail.com/

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Thanks,
Omokefe

I just noticed another mistake on my part, because I prepared
the two v2 patches on separate independent branches off docs-next, both
patches add their regression test at the exact same location in
tools/unittests/test_kdoc_parser.py (line 444). Applying them sequentially will
cause a merge conflict

I didn't realize that patches modifying the exact same context in a file
should be stacked sequentially on a single branch as a patch series
rather than developed on separate branches.

Should I respin them as a 2-patch series against docs-next,
or would you prefer to resolve when applying?

Thanks,
Omokefe
