Linux Coding style template

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

 



I want to transform some C source files. following Linux kernel coding style.

- Does script/Lindent STRICTLY follows all linux kernel coding style rules?
- What scripts/templates do you use/suggest for elegant code style
with the fact that
  we are talking about Linux Kernel Coding?


The GNU guys suggest indent with the following parameters:
-nbad -bap -nbc -bbo -hnl -br -brs -c33 -cd33 -ncdb -ce -ci4
-cli0 -d0 -di1 -nfc1 -i8 -ip0 -l80 -lp -npcs -nprs -npsl -sai
-saf -saw -ncs -nsc -sob -nfca -cp33 -ss -ts8 -il1

On the other hand:
Linux/script/Lindent contains:
-npro -kr -i8 -ts8 -sob -l80 -ss -ncs -cp1

Differences so far:
1)
indent with gnu parameters inserts a space on labels eg.
 err: vs
err:

2)
indent with gnu parameters inserts 26 spaces
#endif                                                        /*
something like this*/


So probably gnu site is outdated?


Also, I have noticed  that they both fail theyto leave the empty line
of a label empty
For example, err: code
to
err:
       code

What does the coding style suggests in this case?

Have you found, other cases such the above?
