I don't quite understand what you mean about the white space. The existing code doesn't conform to the while space requirements. So if I just move existing code around without modifying it checkpatch.pl will detect it as new code and will scream at me a gazillion "you absolutely must fix errors". So it's kind of a catch-22. All these silly white space issues in the existing code could be fixed in 10 seconds with netbeans or eclipse at once and we would be done with it for good. Essentially just run the whole driver through the pretty printer. In fact, I don't know why that wasn't done with the initial check-in or how any of this existing code was able to be checked in without a gazillion checkpatch.pl errors... _______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@linuxdriverproject.org http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
