Will such a pretty-printing detail matter also for the clarification of
a topic like “Make change influence configurable for coding style rules”?

Not sure what you mean. If you mean to say that the result should
conform to the Linux coding style (i.e. the result should be "const
char * const * y" with spaces et al intact), that seems like something
for a different patch, right? Whether you want Coccinelle to conform to
Linux coding style or not, the space should be added either way.

Cheers,
Jaskaran.

The option --smpl-spacing should address this issue, by preservign the
spacing illustrated in the semantic patch.  I don't know if it does that
in this case.

Hm, can't say that it does. Here's what I get with --smpl-spacing on
case https://www.mail-archive.com/cocci@systeme.lip6.fr/msg06696.html

before:

 void main() {
-	const char * const * x;
+	const char *const*y  ;
 }

after:

 void main() {
-	const char * const * x;
+	const char *const *y  ;
 }

Cheers,
Jaskaran.

Whoops, incorrect link

I suggest to take another look also at the circumstances for the placement
of white-space characters (around asterisks).
I guess that we come along different pretty-printing preferences.

Markus
