After looking around apparently this is to do with checkpatch.pl not recognizing the types and thinking the the asterisk is a multiplication sign instead of a pointer(see:http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/1XS1vrzkSwmm4i2t22D6) , as to fix it you would have something like static BOOLEAN MatchSrcIpv6Address(S_CLASSIFIER_RULE * pstClassifierRule, IPV6Header * pstIpv6Header); which conflicts with the foo *barr notation for pointers. > Please resubmit this patch based on these comments.

I'll re-factor this into a small patch set shortly. ------------------------ Max _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
