Except the xdrproc_t cast that Peter pointed out. With that fixed it is actually 52.94% instead of 54.85%. That also shows that the first time I did it, I certainly included the *_t in the regex.Ah, so the reason why the with spaces count is much higher than I expected is almost entirely down to one file - the remote driver. Without spaces $ git ls-files '*.[chx]' | xargs grep -E '(\([a-zA-Z _]+ \*+|\(((signed|unsigned|long|short|int|char|s?size_t|void) ?)+|switch+\(\(vir[a-zA-Z]*Type)\)([^ );,])' | awk '{print $1}' | uniq -c | sort -n | tail 18 tools/virsh-domain.c: 24 src/esx/esx_vi_types.c: 30 src/hyperv/hyperv_driver.c: 32 src/util/viratomic.h: 33 src/util/virdbus.c: 34 src/conf/domain_conf.c: 43 src/xenapi/xenapi_driver.c: 52 src/node_device/node_device_hal.c: 54 src/vbox/vbox_common.c: 56 src/remote/remote_driver.c: With spaces $ git ls-files '*.[chx]' | xargs grep -E '(\([a-zA-Z _]+ \*+|\(((signed|unsigned|long|short|int|char|s?size_t|void) ?)+|switch+\(\(vir[a-zA-Z]*Type)\) ([^ );,])' | awk '{print $1}' | uniq -c | sort -n | tail 14 src/security/security_dac.c: 15 src/util/virxml.c: 17 tools/virsh-pool.c: 20 src/admin/admin_remote.c: 21 tests/qemumonitorjsontest.c: 21 tests/virstoragetest.c: 24 src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: 25 src/remote/remote_daemon_dispatch.c: 44 tests/testutilshostcpus.h: 238 src/remote/remote_driver.c: Amuzingly the remote driver has both styles on the very same line in many cases ! Anyway, this just makes me prefer the without-spaces style more because remote driver is an outlier
Great, I'll do that.

I used to prefer non-spaced casts too, but then I misread some and realized it's similar to arithmetics for example. And before anyone starts shouting at me that it is very subjective and it all depeds on x, y, and z, including your terminal font, I agree, it for sure is. And I also agree that we should not be spending almost any of out time with something that's very close to bikeshedding =) I just want this to be unified across the codebase, and if the consensus is that there should be no spaces, then I'll resend the series with the spaces removed.Yes, I totally agree that - it is subjective and we should unify it.
