Could you run this through checkpatch also, it looks like you have a few
style issues..

I did... the style issues are already there, my patch is not
introducing them. Do you want me to send a separate patch to fix the
existing style issues?

Nobody seems to like the patch you suggested me to do... did I wasted
my time doing it?

Well:

And after today's discussion on kernel summit on this topic, I wouldn't
expect any maintainer to merge it, sorry :)
---

That doesn't seem too positive. Or at least there's no indication that
somebody will pick it up.

I think it is because it doesn't "aggregate" real value to the kernel
(like fixing a crash, that adds value), and the other guys has more
things to do, and don't have time to waste. But that can not be the
true, this is just my point of view.

I'd re-submit with a better description of the patch. You should always
try to describe what your doing as accurately as possible so the
maintainer doesn't have to work very hard to know what your doing.. That
particular patch just has a one liner description that wasn't very
informative .. Either that or re-submit your series without that patch
if you don't have confidence in it.

There's nothing to add. It's a patch to cleanup the coding style, that's it.

All of my patches have been picked up, except the ones for ACPI. I
haven't received a single comment from them, which would explain the
current state of the code.

If somebody raised the hand and said; I'll merge this, please resend,
I'd do that, otherwise I think it's a waste of time.

How do you know the coding style isn't correct? Did you just visually
inspect it?

Patches often times aren't accepted in the first submission, could be
for lots of reasons. It's your series tho ..

You've made changes to automatically generated files, so all the style 
changes
would be overwritten when next time these files are generated -- all the 
files go through
Lindent, and almost all your changes were introduced by it. If you 
really want to make
style changes to ACPICA files, try to play with Lindent, so it produce 
what you want.
If you have anything beside style patches, please submit them separately

Regards,
Alex.

AFAIK, Lindent can't produce checkpatch clean output. It has to do with
various short comings in indent. You really need a human to check up on
it.

It is not really possible. Lindent is not the last step in the process.

Hi, Felipe

All files under linux-2.6/drivers/acpi/acpica and most files under
linux-2.6/include/acpi are ACPICA code, see http://www.acpica.org for
detail.

The ACPICA's coding style is totally different than linux kernel.
For example, a function named AcpiEvaluateObject in ACPICA, but in linux
kernel it is called acpi_evaluate_object.

We have a program "acpisrc" to convert the ACPICA style code to linux
style and then run lindent on the converted code.

You can download the official ACPICA release from
http://www.acpica.org/downloads/ , "acpisrc" is included in it.

It's great that you are contributing to ACPICA code.
All these linuxized ACPICA codes are generated by acpisrc and lindent,
so we'd better not touch those code directly.

Instead, our process is:
1. Write patches for ACPICA code.
2. Send patches to devel.acpica.org, robert.moore@intel.com, ming.m.lin@intel.com
3. I will generate and send the linuxized ACPICA code to Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org>
4. Len asks Linus to merge the linuxized ACPICA code.

Thanks,
Lin Ming
