File Header Documentation
#########################
Every .c, .h and .S file must contain a file header comment at the
beginning of the file. The file header must contain:
#. The filename. Use **@file** for Doxygen to auto-complete the
filename.
#. The brief description: A single line summarizing the file contents.
Use **@brief** to clearly mark the brief description.
#. The detailed description: One or multiple lines describing the
purpose of the file, how it works and any other pertinent
information such as copyrights, authors, etc.
.. note::
Doxygen has special commands for copyrights (@copyright), authors
(@author), and other important information. Refer to the
`Doxygen documentation`_ for details.
