Re: [PATCH 3/5] Staging/iio/adc/touchscreen/MXS: add i.MX23 support to the LRADC driver

[Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Since I work in staging I review hundreds of churn patches per cycle.
One thing which helps me is my rename_rev.pl script (attached).

So if I get a patch like the one I'm about to send which introduces
lradc_reg_set/clear() functions, then I can do this:

cat diff | rename_rev.pl -ea 's/,\n/,/' | \
	rename_rev.pl -e 's/writel\((.*?),\s+lradc->base \+ (.*?) .*SET\)/lradc_reg_set(lradc, $1, $2)/' \
		      -e 's/writel\((.*?),\s+lradc->base \+ (.*?) .*CLR\)/lradc_reg_clear(lradc, $1, $2)/'

It simplifies the patch down to its most minimal form.

I should probably automate the first part which strips out some
line breaks...  I'll post a new version of rename_rev.pl to LKML soon.

dan carpenter

# This is a tool to help review variable rename patches. The goal is
# to strip out the automatic sed renames and the white space changes
# and leaves the interesting code changes.
#
# Example 1: A patch renames openInfo to open_info:
#     cat diff | rename_review.pl openInfo open_info
#
# Example 2: A patch swaps the first two arguments to some_func():
#     cat diff | rename_review.pl \
#                    -e 's/some_func\((.*?),(.*?),/some_func\($2, $1,/'
#
# Example 3: A patch removes the xkcd_ prefix from some but not all the
# variables.  Instead of trying to figure out which variables were renamed
# just remove the prefix from them all:
#     cat diff | rename_review.pl -ea 's/xkcd_//g'
#
# Example 4: A patch renames 20 CamelCase variables.  To review this let's
# just ignore all case changes and all '_' chars.
#     cat diff | rename_review -ea 'tr/[A-Z]/[a-z]/' -ea 's/_//g'
#
# The other arguments are:
# -nc removes comments
# -ns removes '\' chars if they are at the end of the line.
