Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Add control statement test to SINGLE_STATEMENT_DO_WHILE_MACRO
Date: Thu, 02 Aug 2012 08:26:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1343921213.2011.9.camel@joe2Laptop> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120802142053.GH2501@dm>

commit b13edf7ff2d ("checkpatch: add checks for do {} while (0) macro misuses")
added a test that is overly simplistic for single statement macros.

Macros that start with control tests should be enclosed
in a do {} while (0) loop.

Add the necessary control tests to the check.

And you are correct.

The patch below is tested with:
$ cat t.c

#define bar_1(foo)				\
	if (foo)				\
		baz();				\

#define bar_2(foo)				\
do {						\
	if (foo)				\
		baz();				\
} while (0)

#define bar_3(foo)				\
do {						\
	baz();					\
} while (0)

#define bar_4(foo)				\
do {						\
	baz();					\
} while (0);

#define bar_5(foo)				\
do {						\
	while (foo)				\
		baz();				\
} while (0)

#define bar_6(foo)				\
do {						\
	switch (foo) {				\
	case 1:					\
		baz();				\
	}					\
} while (0)

$

So perhaps...
