Subject: bug in checkpatch (on pointers to typedefs?)
Date: Sun, 10 Feb 2008 15:33:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080210143240.GA13317@joi> (raw)

Hi

Checkpatch in current mainline outputs following errors:

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -q --file ./fs/udf/misc.c
ERROR: need consistent spacing around '*' (ctx:WxV)
#205: FILE: fs/udf/misc.c:205:
+       tag *tag_p;
            ^

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -q --file ./fs/udf/unicode.c
ERROR: need consistent spacing around '*' (ctx:WxV)
#48: FILE: fs/udf/unicode.c:48:
+int udf_build_ustr(struct ustr *dest, dstring *ptr, int size)
                                               ^
(...)

I think the code is ok.

Marcin
