when you use git-grep -n "\(&&\|||\)${s}0x\([A-Z0-9]*\|[a-z0-9]*\)",
(with s="[[:space:]]*") there will be false positives []
so i'd propose to change that to
+# Check for bitwise tests written as boolean
+ if ($line =~ /(?:(?:\(|\&\&|\|\|)\s*0[xX]\s*(?:&&|\|\|)|
+ (?:\&\&|\|\|)\s*0[xX]\s*(?:\)|&&|\|\|))/) {
+ WARN("boolean test with hexadecimal, perhaps just 1 \& or \|?\n" . $herecurr);
+ }
+All 13 false positives are "hex_constant logical_test variable". I think that Linus would say that they are all poor style. Still, fine by me. cheers, Joe
