Subject: New 2.6.36 checkpatch complaints about leading whitespace
Date: Sat, 30 Oct 2010 11:35:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTi=sR+wTN1MSRZLW1qB99ybGgOTbUJuw8drtbwA5@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello Andy,

Apparently the checkpatch.pl script as included in 2.6.36 complains if
continued lines start with whitespace. An example:

[ ... ]
+#if defined(MACRO_NAME_1) || defined(MACRO_NAME_2) \
+  || defined(MACRO_NAME_3)
[ ... ]

checkpatch.pl reports the following warning for the above patch excerpt:

WARNING: please, no space for starting a line,
                                excluding comments

Is that a feature or an unintended side effect of recent checkpatch changes ?

Bart.
