[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 4/4] lib/igt_core: api documentation

Daniel Vetter daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch
Wed Mar 12 16:39:56 CET 2014


At most a bit of comment of function declaration movement for more
polish. One tricky bit is to #ifdef out (only for gtkdoc of course)
the struct option; forward declaration - gtkdoc needlessly lists it.

FIXME: The struct documentation for igt_helper_process somehow doesn't
get picked up ... Same issue seems to be with the igt_log_level enum,
I've shoveled the relevant documentation into igt_log in free-form for
now.

+ * debugfs. Through the explicit #igt_helper_process they can also be controlled

+ * For tests with subtest helper process can be started outside of a
