From: David Brownell Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2008 20:38:24 +0000 (+0200) Subject: i2c: Kerneldoc for most I/O calls X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc1~1077^2~40 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a1cdedac634eef81f747078bf1c27ad36ab13553;p=linux-2.6 i2c: Kerneldoc for most I/O calls Provide kerneldoc for most of the I2C and SMBus I/O calls. Add a comment summarizing some fault reporting issues which affect the ability to provide clean fault reports through I2C master transfer calls. (Making it hard to precisely specify their return values...)
