I have posted the fixer here https://reviews.llvm.org/D93182 It catches about 200 problems in 100 files, I'll be posting these soon. clang-tidy-fix's big difference over checkpatch is using the __printf(x,y) attribute to find the log functions. I will be doing a follow-on to add the missing __printf or __scanf's and rerunning the fixer. Tom
