checkpatch: fix defect in printk(KERN_<LEVEL> 80 column exceptions
Currently, printk lines with a only KERN_PREFIX and a quoted string
without a comma or close paren that exceed 80 columns are flagged with a
warning.
ie:
printk(KERN_WARNING "some long string that extends beond 80 cols..."
"and is continued on another line\n");
Allow this form instead of emitting a warning.

scripts/checkpatch.pl: reset rpt_cleaners warnings
If you run checkpatch against multiple patches, and one of them has a
whitespace issue which can be helped via a script (rpt_cleaners), you will
see the same NOTE over and over for all subsequent patches. It makes it
seem like those patches also have whitespace problems when in reality,
there's only one or two bad apples.
So reset rpt_cleaners back to 0 after we've issued the note so that it
only shows up near the patch with the actual problems.

kstrto*: converting strings to integers done (hopefully) right
1. simple_strto*() do not contain overflow checks and crufty,
libc way to indicate failure.
2. strict_strto*() also do not have overflow checks but the name and
comments pretend they do.
3. Both families have only "long long" and "long" variants,
but users want strtou8()
4. Both "simple" and "strict" prefixes are wrong:
Simple doesn't exactly say what's so simple, strict should not exist
because conversion should be strict by default.
The solution is to use "k" prefix and add convertors for more types.
Enter
kstrtoull()
kstrtoll()
kstrtoul()
kstrtol()
kstrtouint()
kstrtoint()
kstrtou64()
kstrtos64()
kstrtou32()
kstrtos32()
kstrtou16()
kstrtos16()
kstrtou8()
kstrtos8()
Include runtime testsuite (somewhat incomplete) as well.
strict_strto*() become deprecated, stubbed to kstrto*() and
eventually will be removed altogether.
Use kstrto*() in code today!
Note: on some archs _kstrtoul() and _kstrtol() are left in tree, even if
they'll be unused at runtime. This is temporarily solution,
because I don't want to hardcode list of archs where these
functions aren't needed. Current solution with sizeof() and
__alignof__ at least always works.

checkpatch: change externals to globals
Make error message say 'ERROR: do not initialise globals to 0 or NULL'
rather than 'ERROR: do not initialise externals to 0 or NULL'. Makes more
sense in the context since there is an extern keyword in C and that is a
global declaration within the scope of the current file.

checkpatch: fix handling of leading spaces
I've got a false positive when spaces are present at the beginning of a
line.
So I add this check, obviously excluding to check the lines in the middle of
comments.
For instance this code passes the checkpatch test:
+struct davinci_mcbsp_data {
+ unsigned int fmt;
+ int clk_div;
+};
+
+static struct davinci_mcbsp_data mcbsp_data;
Where, before the string "int clk_div", I have 4 spaces (\040
ascii character).
With v2.6.34 scripts/checkpatch.pl script I get:
scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-ASoC-DaVinci-Added-support-for-stereo-I2S.patch
total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 201 lines checked
0001-ASoC-DaVinci-Added-support-for-stereo-I2S.patch has no obvious style
problems and is ready for submission.
That is not correct. Instead with the proposed patch I get:
scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-ASoC-DaVinci-Added-support-for-stereo-I2S.patch
WARNING: please, no space for starting a line,
excluding comments
#63: FILE: sound/soc/davinci/davinci-i2s.c:165:

WARNING: please, no space for starting a line,
excluding comments
#95: FILE: sound/soc/davinci/davinci-i2s.c:406:

total: 0 errors, 2 warnings, 201 lines checked

checkpatch.pl: add union and struct to the exceptions list
Here is a small code snippet, which will be complained about by
checkpatch.pl:
#define __STRUCT_KFIFO_COMMON(recsize, ptrtype) \
union { \
struct { \
unsigned int in; \
unsigned int out; \
}; \
char rectype[recsize]; \
ptrtype *ptr; \
const ptrtype *ptr_const; \
};
This construct is legal and safe, so checkpatch.pl should accept this. It
should be also true for struct defined in a macro.
Add the `struct' and `union' keywords to the exceptions list of the
checkpatch.pl script, to prevent error message "Macros with multiple
statements should be enclosed in a do - while loop". Otherwise it is not
possible to build a struct or union with a macro.

from kernel/rcutree.c , and the false warning looked like this,
WARNING: EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); should immediately follow its
function/variable
+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(rcu_lock_map);
We actually should be checking the statement before the EXPORT_* for a
mention of the exported object, and complain where it is not there.

checkpatch: fix __attribute__ matching
In the following code,
union thread_union init_thread_union
__attribute__((__section__(".data.init_task"))) =
{ INIT_THREAD_INFO(init_task) };
There is a non-conforming declaration. It should really be like the
following,
union thread_union init_thread_union
__attribute__((__section__(".data.init_task"))) = {
INIT_THREAD_INFO(init_task)
};
However, checkpatch doesn't catch this right now because it doesn't
correctly evaluate the "__attribute__".
It is not at all clear that we care what preceeds an assignment style
attribute when we find the open brace. Relax the test so we do not need
to check the __attribute__.

checkpatch: fix false errors due to macro concatenation
The macro concatenation (##) sequence can cause false errors when checking
macro's. Checkpatch doesn't currently know about the operator.
For example this line,
+ entry = (struct ftrace_raw_##call *)raw_data; \
is correct but it produces the following error,
ERROR: need consistent spacing around '*' (ctx:WxB)
+ entry = (struct ftrace_raw_##call *)raw_data;\
^
The line above doesn't have any spacing problems, and if you remove the
macro concatenation sequence checkpatch doesn't give any errors.
Extend identifier handling to include ## concatenation within the
definition of an identifier.

checkpatch: Add warning for p0-patches
Some people work internally with -p0-patches which has the danger that one
forgets to convert them to -p1 before mainlining. Bitten myself and seen
p0-patches in mailing lists occasionally, this patch adds a warning to
checkpatch.pl in case a patch is -p0. If you really want, you can fool
this check to generate false positives, this is why it just spits a
warning. Making the check 100% proof is trickier than it looks, so let's
start with a version which catches the cases of real use.

that a comment was open. Update this heuristic to see if the comment edge
is obviously within double quotes and ignore it if so:

update checkpatch.pl to version 0.19
This version is a bit of a whopper. This version brings a few new checks,
improvements to a number of checks mostly through modifications to the
way types are parsed, several fixes to quote/comment handling, as well as
the usual slew of fixes for false positives.
Of note:
- return is not a function and is now reported,
- preprocessor directive detection is loosened to match C99 standard,
- we now intuit new type modifiers, and
- comment handling is much improved
Andy Whitcroft (18):
Version: 0.19
fix up a couple of missing newlines in reports
colon to parenthesis spacing varies on asm
values: #include is a preprocessor statement
quotes: fix single character quotes at line end
add typedef exception for the non-pointer "function types"
kerneldoc parameters must be on one line, relax line length
types: word boundary is not always required
improved #define bracketing reports
uninitialized_var is an annotation not a function name
possible types: add possible modifier handling
possible types: fastcall is a type modifier
types: unsigned is not a modifier on all types
static/external initialisation to zero should allow modifiers
checkpatch: fix recognition of preprocessor directives -- part 2
comments: fix inter-hunk comment tracking
return is not a function
do not report include/asm/foo.h use in include/linux/foo.h
return is not a function -- tighten test

update checkpatch.pl to version 0.18
This version brings a few fixes for the extern checks, and a couple of
new checks.
Of note:
- false is now recognised as a 0 assignment in static/external
assignments,
- printf format strings including %L are reported,
- a number of fixes for the extern in .c file detector which had
temporarily lost its ability to detect variables; undetected due to
the loss of its test.
Andy Whitcroft (8):
Version: 0.18
false should trip 0 assignment checks

quote tracking, fixes to unary tracking, some clarification of wording, and
the usual slew of fixes for false positives.
Of note:
- much better unary tracking across preprocessor directives
- UTF8 checks highlight the character at fault
- widening of mutex detection
Andy Whitcroft (17):
Version: 0.17

update checkpatch.pl to version 0.16
This version brings proper quote tracking across lines, and brings the
handling of comments into the same mechanism ensuring nesting is correctly
handled. It brings the usual flurry of fixes for false positives. It also
brings a number of new checks. The most contentious change will likely be
the checks for NR_CPUS as this throws some new warnings in kernel/sched.c.
Of note:
- all new quote tracking across lines
- all new comment tracking
- new more direct, less ambigious wording for some warnings
- recommends mutexes and completions over semaphores
- recommends strict_strto* over simple_strto*
- report on direct use of NR_CPUS
Andy Whitcroft (22):
Version: 0.16
string quote tracking should cross line boundaries
check spacing round -> correctly across newlines
checks for linux/ against asm/ include files should be warnings
standardise on 'required' and 'prohibited'
take the first end of condition when parsing statements
values: cope with unbalanced brackets
preprocessor #elif is not a function
preprocessor #if should not trigger trailing statement checks
test: allow us to limit output to a single error
recommend real mutexes over semaphores
asm checks should mirror those for __asm__
warn on semaphores being used in place of completions
trailing ; on control structure should ignore do {} while ();
recommend strict_strtoX over simple_strtoX
redo comment handling as a quote type
use of NR_CPUS is normally wrong
consistant spacing should only be about spaces
if brace check suppression should only apply to the top-levels
use tr/// to align spacing for operators

update checkpatch.pl to version 0.13
This version brings a large number of fixes which have built up over
the Christmas period. Mostly these are fixes for false positives, both
through improvments to unary checks and possible type detection. It

update checkpatch.pl to version 0.12
This version brings a new terse output mode as well as many improvements to
the unary detection and bare type regcognition. It also brings the usual
updates for false positives, though these seem to be slowing markedly
now that the unary detector is no longer just putting its finger in the
air and guessing. Of note:
- new --terse mode producing a single line per report
- loosening of the block brace checks
- new checks for enum/union/struch brace placements
- hugely expanded "bare type" detection
- checks for inline usage
- better handling of already open comment blocks
- handle patches which introduce or remove lines without newlines
Andy Whitcroft (19):
Version: 0.12

update checkpatch.pl to version 0.07
This version brings a number of new checks, fixes for flase
positives, plus a clarification of the output to better guide use. Of
note:
- checks for documentation for new __setup calls
- clearer reporting where braces and parenthesis are involved
- reports for closing brace and semi-colon spacing
- reports on unwanted externs
This patch includes an update to the documentation on checkpatch.pl
itself to clarify when it should be used and to indicate that it
is not intended as the final arbitor of style.
Full changelog:
Andy Whitcroft (19):
Version: 0.07
ensure we do not apply control brace checks to preprocesor directives
add {u,s}{8,16,32,64} to the type matcher
accept lack of spacing after the semicolons in for (;;)
report new externs in .c files
fix up typedef exclusion for function prototypes
else trailing statements check need to account for \ at end of line
add enums to the type matcher
add missing check descriptions
suppress double reporting of ** spacing
report on do{ spacing issues
include an example of the brace/parenthesis in output
check for spacing after closing braces
prevent double reports on pointer spacing issues
handle blank continuation lines on macros
classify all reports error, warning, or check
revamp hanging { checks and apply in context
no spaces after the last ; in a for is ok
check __setup has a corresponding addition to documentation

update checkpatch.pl to version 0.06
Update to checkpatch.pl v0.06. Of note:
- do { and else handled correctly as control structures for { matching
- trailing whitespace correctly tripped when line otherwise empty

end of line counts as a space for ++ and --
do { needs the same checks as if, for et al
handle "const foo * const a" as a valid type
add spacing checks following ;

false positives, of particular note:
- detect 'var ++;' and 'var --;' as a bad combination
- multistatement #defines are now checked based on statement count
- multistatement #defines with initialisation correctly reported
- checks the location of the inline keywords

Full Changelog:
Andy Whitcroft (18):
Version: 0.05
macro definition checks should be for a single statement
avoid assignements only in if conditionals
declarations of function pointers need no space
multiline macros which are purely initialisation cannot be wrapped
EXPORT_SYMBOL can also directly follow a variable definition

accept the {0,} form
typedefs are sensible for defining function pointer parameters
ensure { handling correctly handles nested switch() statements
trailing whitespace checks are not anchored
typedefs for sparse bitwise annotations make sense
update the type matcher to include sparse annotations
clean up indent and spacing

add a trivial patch style checker
We are seeing increasing levels of minor patch style violations in submissions
to the mailing lists as well as making it into the tree. These detract from
the quality of the submission and cause unnessary work for reviewers.
As a first step package up the current state of the patch style checker and
include it in the kernel tree. Add instructions suggesting running it on
submissions. This adds version v0.01 of the checkpatch.pl script.
