Hello,

this runs infinitely :

./scripts/checkpatch.pl --file ./drivers/staging/rtl8192u/r819xU_firmware_img.c

Is this a known behaviour of checkpatch.pl  ?

Not infinitely, just need to wait for a long time.

checkpatch.pl works fine, it report like this:

ERROR: space required after that ',' (ctx:VxV)

+0x01,0x00,0x00,0x08,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,};
                        ^

That file miss so many whitespace after ',' from checkpatch point of view.
Anyway, forget it, checkpatch.pl is not recommended to check those files.

That one may be already fixed in my development version.  The form of
the file is familiar.

Could you try your file with the one below and let me know:

That works much more faster :

real    0m18.215s
user    0m8.876s
sys     0m0.281s

I've a question about line 1365 :
	if ($realfile =~ m@^include/asm\/@) {

IMO either both "/" or none needs to be escaped, or ?

None as we are using '@' as the separator, however the extra \ is
benign.
