From e7716c74e3882405f9eca16faa6cb1bf19995399 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Philipp Stanner Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2023 10:21:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] xarray: Document necessary flag in alloc functions Adds a new line to the docstrings of functions wrapping __xa_alloc() and __xa_alloc_cyclic(), informing about the necessity of flag XA_FLAGS_ALLOC being set previously. The documentation so far says that functions wrapping __xa_alloc() and __xa_alloc_cyclic() are supposed to return either -ENOMEM or -EBUSY in case of an error. If the xarray has been initialized without the flag XA_FLAGS_ALLOC, however, they fail with a different, undocumented error code. As hinted at in Documentation/core-api/xarray.rst, wrappers around these functions should only be invoked when the flag has been set. The functions' documentation should reflect that as well.
