Hi

I have developed some kernel drivers and would like to send the patches

for

review. But i find that I have not followed the coding guideline for

tabs and

spaces properly, which can be easily corrected by using some tools like
astyle.

Can any body please help me with the proper commands string for the

astyle

tool? Or could any body please suggest me with any new tool like indent

etc

which you are using

scripts/Lindent will give you a good start, but odds are you really want
to do this by hand, it will be easier in the end as indent can do some
strange things at times.

good luck,

You can see this excellent video [1] where Greg has explained how to
submit your first patch.
