Personally, I don't like those.

Checkpatch is run against a lot of code outside of the linux kernel but
following linux coding style.
There is nothing personal about this, they are the format specifiers in
inttypes.h for fixed width types .

I know. I don't have any strong feeling about this either.

But _this_ checkpatch is specifically for the linux-kernel.

I just don't want to encourage a bunch of uses of these
somewhat useless defines internal to linux-kernel sources.

True. It's impersonal to me too.

There are missing format specifiers.
If this is done, the test should be against a variable

Something like:

our $inttype_format = qr{(?x:
(?:PRI|SCN)
[diouxX]
(?:FAST|LEAST)?
(?:8|16|32|64|MAX|PTR)
};

btw: what about 24, 48, 96, 128 and 256?

It is already used in various code in the linux-kernel tree for tools to
work properly on different cpu architectures.
Use of inttypes.h does have its place.
So _this_ checkpatch shouldn't be complaining about them in the linux
repo either?

I can try adding the "X" and FAST|LEAST.
But I am not familiar enough with perl or the checkpatch script to
understand
what you mean by test should be against a variable vs what I have done.

I can't find those values described for inttypes.h format specifiers.
Where are you looking at those values from?

There are others outside of linux.
