2.2.3. Comments and Documentation

All probes and functions should include comment blocks that describe their purpose, the data they provide, and the context in which they run (e.g. interrupt, process, etc). Use comments in areas where your intent may not be clear from reading the code.
Note that specially-formatted comments are automatically extracted from most tapsets and included in this guide. This helps ensure that tapset contributors can write their tapset and document it in the same place. The specified format for documenting tapsets is as follows: 
/**
 * probe tapset.name - Short summary of what the tapset does.
 * @argument: Explanation of argument.
 * @argument2: Explanation of argument2. Probes can have multiple arguments.
 *
 * Context:
 * A brief explanation of the tapset context. 
 * Note that the context should only be 1 paragraph short.
 *
 * Text that will appear under "Description."
 *
 * A new paragraph that will also appear under the heading "Description".
 *
 * Header:
 * A paragraph that will appear under the heading "Header".

For example: 
/**
 * probe vm.write_shared_copy- Page copy for shared page write.
 * @address: The address of the shared write.
 * @zero: Boolean indicating whether it is a zero page
 *         (can do a clear instead of a copy).
 *
 * Context:
 *  The process attempting the write.
 *
 *  Fires when a write to a shared page requires a page copy.  This is
 *  always preceded by a vm.shared_write.

To override the automatically-generated Synopsis content, use: 
 * Synopsis:
 * New Synopsis string

For example: 
/**
 * probe signal.handle - Fires when the signal handler is invoked
 * @sig: The signal number that invoked the signal handler
 *
 * Synopsis:
 * <programlisting>static int handle_signal(unsigned long sig, siginfo_t *info, struct k_sigaction *ka,
 * sigset_t *oldset, struct pt_regs * regs)</programlisting>

It is recommended that you use the <programlisting> tag in this instance, since overriding the Synopsis content of an entry does not automatically form the necessary tags.
For the purposes of improving the DocBook XML output of your comments, you can also use the following XML tags in your comments:
  • command
  • emphasis
  • programlisting
  • remark (tagged strings will appear in Publican beta builds of the document)
