It is considerede CamelCase but we do accept those as it makes the code
more readable knowing that the lower case x is a placeholder for a
number or letter in the define and the define applies to all "banks",
"buffers", "subsystems".
Added --terse and --mailback options to the make stylecheck target. It
also does continue even if it enounters a possible error.
We decided on two exceptions from the linux kernel coding standard:
- Empty wait while loops may end with ; on the same line.
- All blocks after while, if, for have to be in brackets even if they
only contain one statement. Otherwise it is easy to introduce an
error.
Checkpatch needs to be adapted to reflect those changes.
To make it easier on everyone to keep a uniform coding style throughout
the project we will be using this target to verify our code for
complience.
Currently a lot of files in the project don't fully follow the coding
style. We need to reach that spot over time though. :)
as header file generation is not directly controlled by make (which, by
the way, makes the generatedheaders target phony), the script has to
take care of not needlessly generating files itself lest to have make
rebuild everything everytime
now tries to mkdir its way to the output files
this wouldn't be a problem currently if it wasn't for the efm32 data
lingering in the wrong branch, but otoh it's just on the safe side in
case we meet architectures that don't need other specializations at all.
