checkpatch: types cannot start mid word for pointer tests

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

When checking spacing for pointer checks the type cannot start in the
middle of a word, ie. this is not 'int * bar':

	x = fooint * bar;

checkpatch: complex macros need to ignore comments

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

Ensure we ignore comments in complex macro detection else we incorrectly
report this:

	#define PFM_GROUP_PERM_ANY     -1      /* any user/group */

checkpatch: variants -- move the main unary/binary operators to use variants

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

Now that we have a variants system, move to using that to carry the
unary/binary designation for +, -, &, and *.

checkpatch: add checks for question mark and colon spacing

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

Add checks for the question mark colon operator spacing, and also check
the other uses of colon.  Colon means a number of things:

 - it introduces the else part of the ?: operator,
 - it terminates a goto label,
 - it terminates the case value,
 - it separates the identifier from the bit size on bit fields, and
 - it is used to introduce option types in asm().

checkpatch: possible modifiers -- handle multiple modifiers and trailing

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

Add support for multiple modifiers such as:

	int __one __two foo;

Also handle trailing known modifiers when defecting modifiers:

	int __one foo __read_mostly;

checkpatch: possible types -- known modifiers cannot be types

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

Ensure we do not inadvertantly load known modifiers up as possible types.

checkpatch: handle return types of pointers to functions

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

Make sure we correctly mark the return type of the pointer to a function
declaration.

    const void *(*sb_tag)(struct sysfs_tag_info *info);

checkpatch: macro complexity checks are meaningless in linker scripts

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

Exclude vmlinux.lds.h from the macro complexity checks.  They will never
apply sanely here.

checkpatch: possible modifiers are not being correctly matched

2008-07-24T17:47:26+00:00

Although we are finding the added modifier in the declaration below
we are not correctly matching it as a type.  Fix the declaration.

    static void __ref *vmem_alloc_pages(unsigned int order)
    {
    }
