It works rather better than the older version. It does have an issue with c99 style comments when it needs to rewrite spacing as well. If you use this with -f, please convert the c99 // comments to /* ... */ first using the --types c99_comments option, Maybe use: $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --fix --types=c99_comments <file> $ mv <file>.EXPERIMENTAL-checkpatch-fixes <file> $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --fix --types=spacing <file> $ mv <file>.EXPERIMENTAL-checkpatch-fixes <file> $ git diff <file> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
