[patch 119/124] checkpatch: warn on embedded function names

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: checkpatch: warn on embedded function names

Embedded function names are less appropriate to use when refactoring can
cause function renaming.  Prefer the use of "%s", __func__ to embedded
function names.
