When I run checkpatch.pl -f, it complains about comment blocks like /* * foo * bar */ with "networking block comments don't use an empty /* line, use /* Comment..." But I found this: http://fr.it-usenet.org/thread/18772/41342/, which makes me think that particular checkpatch.pl warning should possibly be ignored for code not in net or drivers/net. 1) Are there different preferred commenting styles for networking code versus everything else? 2) Assuming the comment code above does need fixing, would an example fix be as simple as this? /* foo * bar */ 3) What about the very similar comment blocks checkpatch.pl doesn't currently complain about, do these need fixing too? /** * foo * bar */ Thanks. -- Greg Donald _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
