These patches fix cases where the documentation above a function definition is not consistent with the function header. Issues are detected using the semantic patch below (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/). Basically, the semantic patch parses a file to find comments, then matches each function header, and checks that the name and parameter list in the function header are compatible with the comment that preceeds it most closely. // <smpl> @initialize:ocaml@ @@ let tbl = ref [] let fnstart = ref [] let success = Hashtbl.create 101 let thefile = ref "" let parsed = ref [] let nea = ref [] let parse file = thefile := List.nth (Str.split (Str.regexp "linux-next/") file) 1; let i = open_in file in let startline = ref 0 in let fn = ref "" in let ids = ref [] in let rec inside n = let l = input_line i in let n = n + 1 in match Str.split_delim (Str.regexp_string "*/") l with before::after::_ -> (if not (!fn = "") then tbl := (!startline,n,!fn,List.rev !ids)::!tbl); startline := 0; fn := ""; ids := []; outside n | _ -> (match Str.split (Str.regexp "[ \t]+") l with "*"::name::rest -> let len = String.length name in (if !fn = "" && len > 2 && String.sub name (len-2) 2 = "()" then fn := String.sub name 0 (len-2) else if !fn = "" && (not (rest = [])) && List.hd rest = "-" then if String.get name (len-1) = ':' then fn := String.sub name 0 (len-1) else fn := name else if not(!fn = "") && len > 2 && String.get name 0 = '@' && String.get name (len-1) = ':' then ids := (String.sub name 1 (len-2)) :: !ids); | _ -> ()); inside n and outside n = let l = input_line i in let n = n + 1 in if String.length l > 2 && String.sub l 0 3 = "/**" then begin startline := n; inside n end else outside n in try outside 0 with End_of_file -> () let hashadd tbl k v = let cell = try Hashtbl.find tbl k with Not_found -> let cell = ref [] in Hashtbl.add tbl k cell; cell in cell := v :: !cell @script:ocaml@ @@ tbl := []; fnstart := []; Hashtbl.clear success; parsed := []; nea := []; parse (List.hd (Coccilib.files())) @r@ identifier f; position p; @@ f@p(...) { ... } @script:ocaml@ p << r.p; f << r.f; @@ parsed := f :: !parsed; fnstart := (List.hd p).line :: !fnstart @param@ identifier f; type T; identifier i; parameter list[n] ps; parameter list[n1] ps1; position p; @@ f@p(ps,T i,ps1) { ... } @script:ocaml@ @@ tbl := List.rev (List.sort compare !tbl) @script:ocaml@ p << param.p; f << param.f; @@ let myline = (List.hd p).line in let prevline = List.fold_left (fun prev x -> if x < myline then max x prev else prev) 0 !fnstart in let _ = List.exists (function (st,fn,nm,ids) -> if prevline < st && myline > st && prevline < fn && myline > fn then begin (if not (String.lowercase f = String.lowercase nm) then Printf.printf "%s:%d %s doesn't match preceding comment: %s\n" !thefile myline f nm); true end else false) !tbl in () @script:ocaml@ p << param.p; n << param.n; n1 << param.n1; i << param.i; f << param.f; @@ let myline = (List.hd p).line in let prevline = List.fold_left (fun prev x -> if x < myline then max x prev else prev) 0 !fnstart in let _ = List.exists (function (st,fn,nm,ids) -> if prevline < st && myline > st && prevline < fn && myline > fn then begin (if List.mem i ids then hashadd success (st,fn,nm) i); (if ids = [] (* arg list seems not obligatory *) then () else if not (List.mem i ids) then Printf.printf "%s:%d %s doesn't appear in ids: %s\n" !thefile myline i (String.concat " " ids) else if List.length ids <= n || List.length ids <= n1 then (if not (List.mem f !nea) then begin nea := f :: !nea; Printf.printf "%s:%d %s not enough args\n" !thefile myline f; end) else let foundid = List.nth ids n in let efoundid = List.nth (List.rev ids) n1 in if not(foundid = i || efoundid = i) then Printf.printf "%s:%d %s wrong arg in position %d: %s\n" !thefile myline i n foundid); true end else false) !tbl in () @script:ocaml@ @@ List.iter (function (st,fn,nm,ids) -> if List.mem nm !parsed then let entry = try !(Hashtbl.find success (st,fn,nm)) with Not_found -> [] in List.iter (fun id -> if not (List.mem id entry) && not (id = "...") then Printf.printf "%s:%d %s not used\n" !thefile st id) ids) !tbl // </smpl> --- drivers/clk/keystone/pll.c | 4 ++-- drivers/clk/sunxi/clk-mod0.c | 2 +- drivers/clk/tegra/cvb.c | 10 +++++----- drivers/dma-buf/sw_sync.c | 6 +++--- drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/intel_i2c.c | 3 +-- drivers/gpu/drm/omapdrm/omap_drv.c | 4 ++-- drivers/irqchip/irq-metag-ext.c | 1 - drivers/irqchip/irq-vic.c | 1 - drivers/mfd/tc3589x.c | 4 ++-- drivers/power/supply/ab8500_fg.c | 8 ++++---- drivers/power/supply/abx500_chargalg.c | 1 + drivers/power/supply/intel_mid_battery.c | 2 +- drivers/power/supply/power_supply_core.c | 4 ++-- fs/crypto/crypto.c | 4 ++-- fs/crypto/fname.c | 4 ++-- fs/ubifs/file.c | 2 +- fs/ubifs/gc.c | 2 +- fs/ubifs/lprops.c | 2 +- fs/ubifs/lpt_commit.c | 4 +--- fs/ubifs/replay.c | 2 +- lib/kobject_uevent.c | 6 +++--- lib/lru_cache.c | 4 ++-- lib/nlattr.c | 2 +- 23 files changed, 39 insertions(+), 43 deletions(-) -- 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
