docsrc: build Documentation/ sources

2008-08-12T23:07:30+00:00

Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot
since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in
text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them.  This needs to
be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code
instead of bad examples.

Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir.
Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol.

Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the
Documentation/ sources.  Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system.
However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need
to be installed (for userspace builds).

Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32,
sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

[WATCHDOG] clean-up watchdog documentation

2007-05-24T17:26:11+00:00

Random sampling of some URLs in the Documentation tree to see how many were
stale found that one watchdog driver was now a porn site.  In fact if the
watchdogs document directory was any older it would be written in latin

Clean it up somewhat and add Last reviewed headers, something all the
Documentation could do with IMHO.

Fix "can not" in Documentation and Kconfig

2006-10-03T20:53:09+00:00

Randy brought it to my attention that in proper english "can not" should always
be written "cannot". I donot see any reason to argue, even if I mightnot
understand why this rule exists.  This patch fixes "can not" in several
Documentation files as well as three Kconfigs.
