The patch titled checkpatch: macros which define structure members are not complex has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was checkpatch-macros-which-define-structure-members-are-not-complex.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: checkpatch: macros which define structure members are not complex From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> We often see macros which define structure members, these are not complex and necessarily do not have braces or brackets. For example: #define _PLIST_HEAD_INIT(head) \ .prio_list = LIST_HEAD_INIT((head).prio_list), \ .node_list = LIST_HEAD_INIT((head).node_list) Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/checkpatch.pl | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff -puN scripts/checkpatch.pl~checkpatch-macros-which-define-structure-members-are-not-complex scripts/checkpatch.pl --- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl~checkpatch-macros-which-define-structure-members-are-not-complex +++ a/scripts/checkpatch.pl @@ -2155,6 +2155,7 @@ sub process { if ($dstat ne '' && $dstat !~ /^(?:$Ident|-?$Constant)$/ && $dstat !~ /$exceptions/ && + $dstat !~ /^\.$Ident\s*=/ && $dstat =~ /$Operators/) { ERROR("Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parenthesis\n" .
