Subject: Spurious warning in checkpatch.pl?
Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2012 13:23:56 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5078603C.9010709@lwfinger.net> (raw)
Andy,
The checkpatch.pl version in mainline is issuing what I think are false warnings
of the type
WARNING: networking block comments put the trailing */ on a separate line
#93: FILE: drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/wifi.h:208:
+ u32 rf_rb; /* rflssi_readback */
Is a trailing comment for the member of a struct not allowed?
Thanks,
Larry
