When detecting implied comments from leading stars we may incorrectly think we have detected an edge one way or the other when we have not if we drop off the end of the last hunk. Fix this up. Signed-off-by:

in_atomic() is not for driver use so report any such use as an ERROR. Also in_atomic() is often used to determine if we may sleep, but it is not reliable in this use model therefore strongly discourage its use. Signed-off-by:

When reporting some complex trailing statements we report only the starting line of the error, that tends to imply the shown line is in error and confuse the reader. As we do know where the actual error is report that line too with an appropriate gap marker where applicable. #ERROR: trailing statements should be on next line #1: FILE: Z202.c:1: + for (pbh = page_buffers(bh->b_page); pbh != bh; + pbh = pbh->b_this_page, key++); #ERROR: trailing statements should be on next line #4: FILE: Z202.c:4: + for (pbh = page_buffers(bh->b_page); [...] + pbh = pbh->b_this_page, key++); Signed-off-by: -

Within the type checker we have a number of common kernel types which must be implemented as typedefs. Pull those out so that we can use the same expressions to trigger exclusions. Signed-off-by:

We often see macros which define structure members, these are not complex and necessarily do not have braces or brackets. For example: #define _PLIST_HEAD_INIT(head) \ .prio_list = LIST_HEAD_INIT((head).prio_list), \ .node_list = LIST_HEAD_INIT((head).node_list) Signed-off-by: -

A do without braces '{' may trigger a false possible type 'do' and then this may be interpreted as an external definition of foo(): do foo(); while (bar); Add do to the type exclusions. Fix up tests so we can check for them. Signed-off-by: -

We are currently only reporting syspect indents if the conditional is modified but the indent missmatch could be generated by the body changing, make sure we catch both. Also only report the first line of the body, and more importantly make sure we report the raw copy of the line. Finally report the indent levels to make it easier to understand what is wrong.
