Swarup reported a "make htmldocs" warning:

  Variable length lookbehind is experimental in regex;
  marked by &lt;-- HERE in m/(?&lt;=^|\s)-Werror(?=$|\s)
  &lt;-- HERE / at ./scripts/kernel-doc line 188.

Akira managed to reproduce it by perl v5.34.0.

On second thought, it is not necessary to have the complicated
"lookahead and lookbehind" things, and the regex can be simplified.

Generally, the kernel-doc warnings should be considered as errors only
when "-Werror" flag is set in KCFLAGS, but not when
"-Werror=&lt;diagnostic-type&gt;" is set, which means there needs to be a
space or start of string before "-Werror", and a space or end of string
after "-Werror".

The following cases have been tested to work as expected:

* kernel-doc warnings are considered as errors:

  $ KCFLAGS="-Werror" make W=1
  $ KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror" make W=1
  $ KCFLAGS="-Werror -Wundef" make W=1
  $ KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror -Wundef" make W=1

* kernel-doc warnings remain as warnings:

  $ KCFLAGS="-Werror=return-type" make W=1
  $ KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror=return-type" make W=1
  $ KCFLAGS="-Werror=return-type -Wundef" make W=1
  $ KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror=return-type -Wundef" make W=1

The "Variable length lookbehind is experimental in regex" warning is
also resolved by this patch.

In our CI testing, we use some commands as below to only turn a specific
type of warnings into errors, but we notice that kernel-doc warnings
are also turned into errors unexpectedly.

$ make KCFLAGS="-Werror=return-type" W=1 kernel/fork.o

&gt;From the git history, commit 2c12c8103d8f ("scripts/kernel-doc:
optionally treat warnings as errors") introduces a new command-line
option to make kernel-doc warnings into errors. It can also read the
KCFLAGS environment variable to decide whether to turn this option on,
but the regex used for matching may not be accurate enough. It can match
both "-Werror" and "-Werror=&lt;diagnostic-type&gt;", so the option is turned
on by mistake in the latter case.

Fix this by strictly matching the flag "-Werror": there must be a space
or start of string in the front, and a space or end of string at the
end. This can handle all the following cases correctly:

KCFLAGS="-Werror" make W=1 [MATCH]
KCFLAGS="-Werror=return-type" make W=1 [NO MATCH]
KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror -Wundef" make W=1 [MATCH]
KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror=return-type -Wundef" make W=1 [NO MATCH]

<title>scripts: kernel-doc: fix macro handling in enums</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0ef5de7b1ee8d8ee5695fbc1df4a257e028f674a</id>
<content type='text'>
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf.h uses offsetof to
initialize the enum enumerators:

enum idpf_cap_field {
	IDPF_BASE_CAPS = -1,
	IDPF_CSUM_CAPS = offsetof(struct virtchnl2_get_capabilities,
				  csum_caps),
	IDPF_SEG_CAPS = offsetof(struct virtchnl2_get_capabilities,
				 seg_caps),
	IDPF_RSS_CAPS = offsetof(struct virtchnl2_get_capabilities,
				 rss_caps),
	IDPF_HSPLIT_CAPS = offsetof(struct virtchnl2_get_capabilities,
				    hsplit_caps),
	IDPF_RSC_CAPS = offsetof(struct virtchnl2_get_capabilities,
				 rsc_caps),
	IDPF_OTHER_CAPS = offsetof(struct virtchnl2_get_capabilities,
				   other_caps),
};

kernel-doc parses the above enumerator with a ',' inside the
macro and treats 'csum_caps', 'seg_caps' etc. also as enumerators
resulting in the warnings:

drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf.h:130: warning: Enum value
'csum_caps' not described in enum 'idpf_cap_field'
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf.h:130: warning: Enum value
'seg_caps' not described in enum 'idpf_cap_field'
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf.h:130: warning: Enum value
'rss_caps' not described in enum 'idpf_cap_field'
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf.h:130: warning: Enum value
'hsplit_caps' not described in enum 'idpf_cap_field'
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf.h:130: warning: Enum value
'rsc_caps' not described in enum 'idpf_cap_field'
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf.h:130: warning: Enum value
'other_caps' not described in enum 'idpf_cap_field'

Fix it by removing the macro arguments within the parentheses.

<id>urn:sha1:be98edcb664be76cd3ba0bde1e760a31197176d8</id>
<content type='text'>
At present, if the macros DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR() and
DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_LEN() are used in the structures as shown
below, instead of parsing the parameter in the parentheses,
kernel-doc parses 'DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR(' and
'DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_LEN(' which results in the following
warnings:

drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_txrx.h:201: warning: Function
parameter or member 'DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR(dma' not described in
'idpf_tx_buf'
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_txrx.h:201: warning: Function
parameter or member 'DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_LEN(len' not described in
'idpf_tx_buf'

struct idpf_tx_buf {
	DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR(dma);
	DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_LEN(len);
};

Fix the warnings by parsing DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR() and
DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_LEN().

Enums benefit from private markings, too. For netlink attribute
name enums always end with a pair of __$n_MAX and $n_MAX members.
Documenting them feels a bit tedious.

<title>kernel-doc: don't let V=1 change outcome</title>

<content type='text'>
The kernel-doc script currently reports a number of issues
only in "verbose" mode, but that's initialized from V=1
(via KBUILD_VERBOSE), so if you use KDOC_WERROR=1 then
adding V=1 might actually break the build. This is rather
unexpected.

Change kernel-doc to not change its behaviour wrt. errors
(or warnings) when verbose mode is enabled, but rather add
separate warning flags (and -Wall) for it. Allow enabling
those flags via environment/make variables in the kernel's
build system for easier user use, but to not have to parse
them in the script itself.

<title>docs: scripts: kernel-doc: accept bitwise negation like ~@var</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8aaf297a0dd66d4fac215af24ece8dea091079bc</id>
<content type='text'>
In some cases we'd like to indicate the bitwise negation of a parameter,
e.g.

  ~@var

This will be helpful for describing the atomic andnot operations, where
we'd like to write comments of the form:

  Atomically updates @v to (@v &amp; ~@i)

Which kernel-doc currently transforms to:

  Atomically updates **v** to (**v** &amp; ~**i**)

Rather than the preferable form:

  Atomically updates **v** to (**v** &amp; **~i**)

This is similar to what we did for '!@var' in commit:

  ee2aa7590398 ("scripts: kernel-doc: accept negation like !@var")

This patch follows the same pattern that commit used to permit a '!'
prefix on a param ref, allowing a '~' prefix on a param ref, cuasing
kernel-doc to generate the preferred form above.
