Isn't that warning more of a guideline, rather than an actual warning?
This seems more readable than:

- rtl88eu_dm_txpower_track_adjust(&hal_data->odmpriv, 1, &direction,
- &pwrtrac_value);
+ rtl88eu_dm_txpower_track_adjust(&hal_data->odmpriv, 1,

CodingStyle says "Statements longer than 80 columns will be broken into sensible chunks,
unless exceeding 80 columns significantly increases readability and does not hide information"

i agree that this is more readable but can it be called significant improvement ? but ofcourse final decision is on Greg.

Then fix the indentation with a tab, not using over 8 spaces, don't make
this a new coding style issue that I will then get an additional patch
for later from someone that will just fix up the original tab issue...

You can't fight checkpatch.pl. We reject the worst or the worst "break
lines up into smaller chunks" patches where they obviously hurt
readability, but we almost always silence the warning in the end. The
original code in this case was fine.

Yes, it is more informational than defect.

Sure you can, Ignore it whenever appropriate.

It's a pity there are _so_ many people that think
checkpatch messages are gospel.

Any line with 30+ char identifiers generally doesn't
fit well in 80 char lines.

People will just keep sending patches until something gets merged.

It's rude to ignore patches and it's useless because people will just
send another email asking you "have you received my patch yet?". It
just creates a bigger fight.

Applying mediocre checkpatch cleanups takes less time and energy than
constantly fighting. It's easiest to not fight over stupid stuff and
just apply the patches. Plus it makes the patch senders happy and
that creates a happier community.

Mediocre cleanup patches that fall into the
"not satisfactory, poor, inferior" category
shouldn't be applied.

The primary thing I'd like to see stopped is the
use of checkpatch to satisfy some CS assignment.

Have any of those submitters ever gone on to produce
more thorough patches?

I'm half tempted to submit some patch like this to
make it difficult to use checkpatch on files outside
of drivers/staging.

o Only allow checkpatch to be used with the -f/--file
option for drivers/staging/
o Add an undocumented --force command line option

Sure. We could try that. I once sent a patch to make -f generate a

Yeah, I remember.

It's always a pleasure to chat with Borislav.

This is basically a patch that implements my suggestion
in that thread.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/17/427

I wonder if the undocumented --force option is acceptable
to Pavel and Kalle.

Undocumented options are evil... You can add warning about not wasting
people's time in --force documentation...

Yeah, I had added --force to the help text
then removed it before sending, so I suppose
adding a warning there is OK too.

Nobody reads the --help text anyway.

Dan/Andrew/Greg? You got a preference?

Maybe some help/warning text like:

--force Without --force, checkpatch will not scan files
using -f or --file outside of drivers/staging/...
Do not use this option merely to create potential
patches that are uncompiled or untested.
