checkpatch: add some common Blackfin checks

2009-09-22T14:17:48+00:00

Add checks for Blackfin-specific issues that seem to crop up from time to time. In particular, we have helper macros to break a 32bit address into the hi/lo parts, and we want to make sure people use the csync/ssync variant that includes fun anomaly workarounds.

checkpatch: limit sN/uN matches to actual bit sizes

2009-09-22T14:17:48+00:00

Limit our type matcher to the s/u/le/be etc sizes that actually exist to prevent miss categorising s2 as a type. Fix up the spelling of the error also. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

checkpatch: format strings should not have brackets in macros

2009-09-22T14:17:48+00:00

We should not recommend braces for the following: #define pr_fmt(fmt) "%s: " fmt, __func__ allow things with double quotes round them to avoid this check. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

checkpatch: make -f alias --file, add --help, more verbose help message

2009-09-22T14:17:48+00:00

Impact: - More verbose help/usage message. - Make the option -f an alias for --file. - On -h, --help, and --version display help message and exit(0). - With no FILE(s) given, exit(1) with "no input files". - On invalid options display help/usage and exit(1). Based on a patch by Pavel Machek. Signed-off-by: Hannes Eder Acked-by: Pavel Machek Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

checkpatch: indent checks -- stop when we run out of continuation lines

2009-09-22T14:17:48+00:00

Ensure we terminate when there are no futher continuation lines when trying to determine relative indent of conditionals and their blocks. Reported-by: John Daiker Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

checkpatch: handle C99 comments correctly (performance issue)

2009-09-22T14:17:47+00:00

This fixes the sanitation process in checkpatch.pl so that it blocks out the text after a C99 style comment the same way it does with block style comments. This prevents the text from getting processed as regular code. Signed-off-by: Daniel Walker Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

checkpatch: possible types -- else cannot start a type

2009-09-22T14:17:47+00:00

An else cannot start a type, it would have to be within a block after the else. This can trigger false modifier matching. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
