2013-09-09checkpatch.pl: Check .cpp filesTomoki Sekiyama1-6/+28
Enable checkpatch.pl to apply the same checks as C source files for C++ files with .cpp extensions. It also adds some exceptions for C++ sources to suppress errors for: - <> used in C++ template arguments (e.g. template <class T>) - :: used to represent namespaces (e.g. SomeClass::method()) - : used in class declaration (e.g. class T : public Super) - ~ used in destructor method name (e.g. T::~T()) - spacing around 'catch' (e.g. catch (...))

2011-11-26checkpatch.pl: fix CAST detectionFlorian Mickler1-1/+1
We should only claim that something is a cast if we did not encouter a token before, that did set av_pending. This fixes the operator * in the line below to be detected as binary (vs unary). kmalloc(sizeof(struct alphatrack_ocmd) * true_size, GFP_KERNEL); Reported-by: Peter Chubb <nicta.com.au> Signed-off-by: Florian Mickler <florian@mickler.org> (cherry-picked from Linux kernel commit c023e4734c3e8801e0ecb5e81b831d42a374d861) Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Cc: Blue Swirl <blauwirbel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Blue Swirl <blauwirbel@gmail.com>
2011-11-01checkpatch: remove rule on non-indented labelsPaolo Bonzini1-6/+0
There are 508 non-indented (non-default) labels, and 511 that are indented. So the rule is debatable at least. Actually, in the common case of labels at the outermost scope, there is really just one place where to put the label, so the rule is just wrong IMHO.

2011-07-17checkpatch: don't error out on },{ linesAlexander Graf1-1/+3
When having code like this: static PCIDeviceInfo piix_ide_info[] = { { .qdev.name = "piix3-ide", .qdev.size = sizeof(PCIIDEState), .qdev.no_user = 1, .no_hotplug = 1, .init = pci_piix_ide_initfn, .vendor_id = PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, .device_id = PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82371SB_1, .class_id = PCI_CLASS_STORAGE_IDE, },{ .qdev.name = "piix4-ide", .qdev.size = sizeof(PCIIDEState), .qdev.no_user = 1, .no_hotplug = 1, .init = pci_piix_ide_initfn, .vendor_id = PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, .device_id = PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82371AB, .class_id = PCI_CLASS_STORAGE_IDE, },{ /* end of list */ } }; checkpatch currently errors out, claiming that spaces need to follow commas. However, this particular style of defining structs is pretty common in qemu code and very readable. So let's declare it as supported for the above case.
