doc: split buffer.rst out of api-summary.rst

2024-05-06T00:53:40Z

Buffer heads are no longer a generic filesystem API but an optional filesystem support library. Make the documentation structure reflect that, and include the fine documentation kept in buffer_head.h. We could give a better overview of what buffer heads are all about, but my enthusiasm for documenting it is limited.

docs: fs: api-summary.rst: get rid of kernel-doc include

2020-10-28T17:41:15Z

The direct-io.c file used to have just two exported symbols: - dio_end_io() - __blockdev_direct_IO() The first one was removed by changeset c33fe275b530 ("fs: remove no longer used dio_end_io()") And the last one is used on most places indirectly, via the inline macro blockdev_direct_IO() provided by fs.h. Yet, neither the macro or the function have kernel-doc markups. So, drop the inclusion of fs/direct-io.c at the docs. Fixes: c33fe275b530 ("fs: remove no longer used dio_end_io()") Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/d0a9fffedca102633c168adaf157f34288a4ea67.1603791716.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

docs: no structured comments in fs/file_table.c

docs: Bring some order to filesystem documentation

2019-03-06T16:46:10Z

Documentation/filesystems is, like much of the rest of the kernel's documentation, a jumble of unorganized information. Split the documentation into categories and try to bring some order to the top-level index.rst files. No text changes other than a few section-introductory blurbs; this is all just moving stuff around. Cc: linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org Cc: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet
