Hi Naver,

checkpatch.pl is script to check your patch, not C file I think.

One can use checkptach -f <filename> to run the script on source files.

For more details, check
 ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --help

$ cd ~/project/aosp/kernel/linux
$ scripts/checkpatch.pl scripts/sortextable.c

Though why you have a .c file in scripts/ is beyond me, it should probably
be in some other directory.

You can use it something like this 
./scripts/checkpatch.pl --file --terse /path/to/the/file.c
