"checkpatch.pl --strict" complains "CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis". I'll queue the patch, but how about teaching checkpatch.pl to ignore __struct_group()?
I think this would do it: diff --git a/scripts/checkpatch.pl b/scripts/checkpatch.pl index 9c4c4a61bc83..e229b97f17f6 100755 --- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl +++ b/scripts/checkpatch.pl @@ -3958,7 +3958,7 @@ sub process { my $rest = $2; my $pos = pos_last_openparen($rest); - if ($pos >= 0) { + if ($pos >= 0 && $rest !~ /(__)?struct_group(_(tagged|attr))?(\()/) { $line =~ /^(\+| )([ \t]*)/; my $newindent = $2; I'll send a proper patch. Thanks for the suggestion, Mimi. -- Gustavo
