Subject: [PATCH] docs: kdoc: fix struct_group_tagged() parsing regression
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 16:51:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260914155127.21515-1-emmaonana18@gmail.com> (raw)
kernel-doc reports struct_group_tagged() members as excess because
the macro transformation rewrites it to an anonymous struct and drops their
member names.
Keep the tag and member name when transforming struct_group_tagged(). The
nested members are then recorded as names such as fast.order; accept the
existing unqualified @order documentation tag during validation.
Add a regression test based on struct page_pool_params.

Fixes: 2f07ddbd5793 ("docs: xforms_lists: better evaluate struct_group macros")
