Many people use incremental formatting: when you change or add some code,
use the autoformatter to make sure that it conforms to the appropriate
style. One such script is “clang-format-diff.py”. This is the approach that
I want to take on the diffs that I would like to create pull requests for:
make sure that the diff itself conforms to the style.

Bill, do you know if it would be practicable to apply code style per
file instead of doing a flag day on entire repository?

Also it might help before enforcing the style to get tcpdump 5.0 ready
(to remove backporting into 4.99 from the problem space) and to
merge/close as many pull requests as possible.

[tcpdump-workers] Has anyone got a clang-format for the tcpdump style?

2023-01-04 Thread Bill Fenner via tcpdump-workers

Hi,

I know the tcpdump style follows a bunch of bsd patterns, since it came
from Berkeley in the first place.  Does anyone have a clang-format config
that reflects these coding conventions?  One of the problems I have in
upstreaming Arista-developed tcpdump code is making sure that the code fits
in well with its surroundings, and using clang-format for that purpose
would sure be easier.

Thanks,
  Bill
