Hi.
scripts/spdxcheck.py warns the following two files.
$ ./scripts/spdxcheck.py
drivers/net/ethernet/pensando/ionic/ionic_if.h: 1:52 Syntax error: OR
drivers/net/ethernet/pensando/ionic/ionic_regs.h: 1:52 Syntax error: OR
I do not understand what is wrong with them.
I think "A OR B OR C" is sane.

Best Regards

Yes it is, but obviously we did not expect files with 3 possible
alternative licenses.
Thanks,

Perhaps just this, but the generic logic
obviously isn't complete.

And I'm kinda happy about this warning because people are overdoing it.
There is no point for the Linux-OpenIB license in this case, as it
is just a BSD license with copy and paste errors. I think the right
fix is to ask the authors to just drop it.
This is not correct.
Since the grammar includes the production "expr: expr OR expr",
there is absolutely no need to add a rule with more than two operands --
it will be handled recursively.

You sure about the recursion?
It does work and spdxcheck no longer emits a message for
these two files.

Can we please print a warning in that case even if we end up parsing
it correct? tripple licensing always has a bit of a bad smell.

FYI, I meant there is no reason for this brand new driver to tripple license
2 files under BSD2 clause and OpenIB. (Or using the OpenIB license for
anything new for that matter).
Sorry for the delay in replying.
I've never used PLY before, but I do know lex and yacc, so I'm confident that an expression with two (or more) "OR" terms will be handled recursively.
The problem with spdxcheck.py is, I think, that it specifies "nonassoc" in the precedence variable, which effectively means that constructs like "a OR b OR c" are not allowed and need to be "(a OR b) OR c". I expect simply deleting this string would make everything pass.
The following standalone test code shows that there is no need for any additional rule in the grammar (the first tests succeed, the last two fail with lexical and parsing errors, respectively):
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import ply.lex as lex
import ply.yacc as yacc
tokens = ( 'ID', 'OR', 'AND', 'LPAR', 'RPAR',)
t_ID = r'[a-z]+'
t_OR = 'OR'
t_AND = 'AND'
t_LPAR = r'\('
t_RPAR = r'\)'
t_ignore = ' \t\n'
def p_expr(p):
'''expr : ID
| expr AND expr
| expr OR expr
| LPAR expr RPAR'''
def t_error(t):
print("Illegal character '%s'" % t.value[0])
t.lexer.skip(1)
def p_error(p):
print("Syntax error in input!", p)
lexer = lex.lex()
parser = yacc.yacc()
tests = ( 'a', 'a OR b', 'a AND b', 'a OR b OR c', 'a OR b AND c OR d',
'a AND @', 'a OR OR b')
for s in tests:
print(s)
parser.parse(s)
