enclose -> Enclose, and Macros -> macros
I don't understand the above comment though. How does adding parentheses
around the body of a macro cause the operands to be evaluated only once?
And the macros that you have changed don't have any operands.
The value of adding parentheses is normally to ensure that the body of the
macro doesn't interact with the context in a weird way. For example, you
could have
#define ADD 3 + 4
Then if you use your macro as 6 * ADD, you will end up evaluating
6 * 3 + 4, ie 18 + 4, when you might have expected 6 * 7. The issue is
that * has higher precedence than +.
yes, I mean that but i couldn't explain it well, thanks for your feedback.
But I don't think that such a problem can arise with a cast expression, so
parentheses around it should not be necessary.
So, no need for this patch?
this error reported by chechpatch.pl
this error is reported by checkpatch.
"ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parentheses"
for ADE7854_SPI_SLOW, ADE7854_SPI_BURST and ADE7854_SPI_FAST
macros and this error fixed by enclose these macros in parentheses.
The last two lines aren't needed. One can easily see that from looking at
the patch.
Got it, Thank you.
