I tried it and this time it seems to detect it properly. Also this fixes the similar case in for(...) {...}. It should not have any side effects also for other checks. Pretty amazing. I will rewrite the patch with your suggestion and send it back. Thanks, Dwaipayan.

I think your patch would work well enough if the /1/ bits here were simply changed to /1u/. 1 is a $Constant as it's just a number. 11 though is also a $Constant. 1u is also a $Constant but it stops the acquisition of digits that 11 would not and the sequence of "while1u1u" should

All I'm trying to point out to you is that $Constant\s*$Constant isn't a proper test as the first $Constant will pull the test entire sequence of digits and the second $Constant will not be met. It may take some conversion of the collapsing of the dstat block to work appropriately # Flatten any parentheses and braces while ($dstat =~ s/\([^\(\)]*\)/1/ || $dstat =~ s/\{[^\{\}]*\}/1/ || $dstat =~ s/.\[[^\[\]]*\]/1/) { } Maybe the /1/ should be / 1 / but I didn't look to see what happens to the exclusion tests below that.

I ran checkpatch on it and some other condition seems to match, so it is excluded from the error. However, if the macro is like: #define foo(bar,baz)while(bar) {bar--;baz++;} (one space after condition) $dstat is: while1 1 (space after first 1) and the same error is again emitted. So I think \s* works better since there can be 0 or more whitespaces between them. Thanks, Dwaipayan.

For example on file mm/maccess.c, there were two such macros: Case 1: $ctx: +#define copy_from_kernel_nofault_loop(dst, src, len, type, err_label) \ + while (len >= sizeof(type)) { \ + __get_kernel_nofault(dst, src, type, err_label); \ + dst += sizeof(type); \ + src += sizeof(type); \ + len -= sizeof(type); \ + } $dstat: while 1 1 Case 2: $ctx: +#define copy_to_kernel_nofault_loop(dst, src, len, type, err_label) \ + while (len >= sizeof(type)) { \ + __put_kernel_nofault(dst, src, type, err_label); \ + dst += sizeof(type); \ + src += sizeof(type); \ + len -= sizeof(type); \ + } $dstat: while 1 1 Thanks, Dwaipayan.
