From f858e23a29740757fe1ca602cb1f57845034b1c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Antonio Borneo Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2022 12:00:55 +0200 Subject: checkpatch: fix incorrect camelcase detection on numeric constant The code fragment below int foo(int *array, int index) { return array[index & 0xFF]; } triggers an incorrect camelcase detection by checking a substring of the hex constant: CHECK: Avoid CamelCase: #3: FILE: test.c:3: + return array[index & 0xFF]; This is caused by passing the whole string "array[index & 0xFF]" to the inner loop that iterates over a "$Ident" match. The numeric constant is not a $Ident as it doesn't start with [A-Za-z_] and should be excluded from the match. Similar issue can be detected with other constants like "1uL", "0xffffU". Force the match to start at word boundary so the $Ident will be properly checked starting from its first char and the constants will be filtered-out.
