checkpatch bug: space between left parenthesis and asterisk

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

 



I'm running checkpatch.pl (dated 10/17), and it complains about this line:

crc = __be32_to_cpu(* ((__be32 *) ((void *) firmware + calc_size)));

the message I get is:

ERROR: need space before that '*' (ctx:BxW)
#721: FILE: arch/powerpc/sysdev/qe_lib/qe.c:527:
+       crc = __be32_to_cpu(* ((__be32 *) ((void *) firmware + calc_size)));
                            ^

so I add a space, and now I get this:

ERROR: no space after that open parenthesis '('
#721: FILE: arch/powerpc/sysdev/qe_lib/qe.c:527:
+       crc = __be32_to_cpu( * ((__be32 *) ((void *) firmware + calc_size)));
