# check-format.pl
# - check formatting of C source according to OpenSSL coding style
#
# usage:
#   check-format.pl [-l|--strict-len] [-b|--sloppy-bodylen]
#                   [-s|--sloppy-space] [-c|--sloppy-comment]
#                   [-m|--sloppy-macro] [-h|--sloppy-hang]
#                   [-e|--eol-comment] [-1|--1-stmt]
#                   <files>
#
# run self-tests:
#   util/check-format.pl util/check-format-test-positives.c
#   util/check-format.pl util/check-format-test-negatives.c
#
# checks adherence to the formatting rules of the OpenSSL coding guidelines
# assuming that the input files contain syntactically correct C code.
# This pragmatic tool is incomplete and yields some false positives.
# Still it should be useful for detecting most typical glitches.
#
# options:
#  -l | --strict-len     decrease accepted max line length from 100 to 80
#  -b | --sloppy-bodylen do not report function body length > 200
#  -s | --sloppy-space   do not report whitespace nits
#  -c | --sloppy-comment do not report indentation of comments
#                        Otherwise for each multi-line comment the indentation of
#                        its lines is checked for consistency. For each comment
#                        that does not begin to the right of normal code its
#                        indentation must be as for normal code, while in case it
#                        also has no normal code to its right it is considered to
#                        refer to the following line and may be indented equally.
#  -m | --sloppy-macro   allow missing extra indentation of macro bodies
#  -h | --sloppy-hang    when checking hanging indentation, do not report
#                        * same indentation as on line before
#                        * same indentation as non-hanging indent level
#                        * indentation moved left (not beyond non-hanging indent)
#                          just to fit contents within the line length limit
#  -e | --eol-comment    report needless intermediate multiple consecutive spaces also before end-of-line comments
#  -1 | --1-stmt         do more aggressive checks for { 1 stmt } - see below
#
# There are non-trivial false positives and negatives such as the following.
#
# * When a line contains several issues of the same kind only one is reported.
#
# * When a line contains more than one statement this is (correctly) reported
#   but in some situations the indentation checks for subsequent lines go wrong.
#
# * There is the special OpenSSL rule not to unnecessarily use braces around
#   single statements:
#   {
#       stmt;
#   }
#   except within if ... else constructs where some branch contains more than one
#   statement. Since the exception is hard to recognize when such branches occur
#   after the current position (such that false positives would be reported)
#   the tool by checks for this rule by default only for do/while/for bodies.
#   Yet with the --1-stmt option false positives are preferred over negatives.
#   False negatives occur if the braces are more than two non-blank lines apart.
#
# * The presence of multiple consecutive spaces is regarded a coding style nit
#   except when this is before end-of-line comments (unless the --eol-comment is given) and
#   except when done in order to align certain columns over multiple lines, e.g.:
#   # define AB  1
#   # define CDE 22
#   # define F   3333
#   This pattern is recognized - and consequently extra space not reported -
#   for a given line if in the non-blank line before or after (if existing)
#   for each occurrence of "  \S" (where \S means non-space) in the given line
#   there is " \S" in the other line in the respective column position.
#   This may lead to both false negatives (in case of coincidental " \S")
#   and false positives (in case of more complex multi-column alignment).
#
# * When just part of control structures depend on #if(n)(def), which can be
#   considered bad programming style, indentation false positives occur, e.g.:
#   #if X
#       if (1) /* bad style */
#   #else
#       if (2) /* bad style resulting in false positive */
#   #endif
#           c; /* resulting further false positive */
