Such information from the commit descriptions sounds positive. > +++ b/drivers/base/platform.c … > @@ -163,6 +158,22 @@ int platform_get_irq(struct platform_device *dev, > unsigned int num) … > +/** > + * platform_get_irq - get an IRQ for a device > + * @dev: platform device > + * @num: IRQ number index > + */ Do you find the provided description for the programming interface really sufficient then? Would it be more helpful to indicate the existence of an appropriate error message also in this software documentation (besides the C source code)? Regards, Markus
