2016-04-28	samples: connector: from Documentation to samples directory	Arnd Bergmann	1	-16/+0
	A small bug with the new autoksyms support showed that there are two kernel modules in the Documentation directory that qualify as samples, while all other samples are in the samples/ directory. This patch was originally meant as a workaround for that bug, but it has now been solved in a different way. However, I still think it makes sense as a cleanup to consolidate all sample code in one place. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2009-07-17	connector: get test code working by default	Mike Frysinger	1	-0/+5
	The connector test code currently does not work out of the box. This is because it uses a connector id that is above the registered limit. So rather than force people to stumble through undocumented code wondering why it isn't working, have the test code use one of the "private" ids by default. While I'm in here, clean up the code (kernel and user app) so that it's a bit more user friendly and verbose in significant things that it does. Terse test code wastes people time as they simply enumerate it with all the same kind of debug messages to get a better feel of what code is running at any time.

2008-08-13	docsrc: build Documentation/ sources	Randy Dunlap	1	-0/+11
	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.
