With ARCH=x86, make allmodconfig && make W=1 C=1 reports: WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/perf/arm-ccn.o WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/perf/fsl_imx8_ddr_perf.o WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/perf/marvell_cn10k_ddr_pmu.o WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/perf/arm_cspmu/arm_cspmu_module.o WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/perf/arm_cspmu/nvidia_cspmu.o WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/perf/arm_cspmu/ampere_cspmu.o WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/perf/cxl_pmu.o Add the missing invocation of the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro to all files which have a MODULE_LICENSE(). This includes drivers/perf/hisilicon/hisi_uncore_pmu.c which, although it did not produce a warning with the x86 allmodconfig configuration, may cause this warning with arm64 configurations.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
