Message-ID: <1350243358.22442.13.camel@joe-AO722> Date: Sun, 14 Oct 2012 12:35:58 -0700 From: Joe Perches <joe@...ches.com> To: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@...inger.net>, Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org> Cc: Andy Whitcroft <apw@...onical.com>, LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, netdev <netdev@...r.kernel.org> Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Improve network block comment style checking Some comment styles in net and drivers/net are flagged inappropriately. Avoid proclaiming inline comments like: int a = b; /* some comment */ and block comments like: /********************* * some comment ********************/ are defective. Tested with $ cat drivers/net/t.c /* foo */ /* * foo */ /* foo */ /* foo * bar */ /**************************** * some long block comment ***************************/ struct foo { int bar; /* another test */ }; $ Reported-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@...inger.net> Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@...ches.com> --- scripts/checkpatch.pl | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/checkpatch.pl b/scripts/checkpatch.pl index 21a9f5d..f18750e 100755 --- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl +++ b/scripts/checkpatch.pl @@ -1890,8 +1890,10 @@ sub process { } if ($realfile =~ m@^(drivers/net/|net/)@ && - $rawline !~ m@^\+[ \t]*(\/\*|\*\/)@ && - $rawline =~ m@^\+[ \t]*.+\*\/[ \t]*$@) { + $rawline !~ m@^\+[ \t]*\*/[ \t]*$@ && #trailing */ + $rawline !~ m@^\+.*/\*.*\*/[ \t]*$@ && #inline /*...*/ + $rawline !~ m@^\+.*\*{2,}/[ \t]*$@ && #trailing **/ + $rawline =~ m@^\+[ \t]*.+\*\/[ \t]*$@) { #non blank */ WARN("NETWORKING_BLOCK_COMMENT_STYLE", "networking block comments put the trailing */ on a separate line\n" . $herecurr); } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
