[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] SAF-x-safe rename
Hi MISRA C working group (Jan, Roger, Andrew, Julien, Bertrand, George) in a recent thread Andrew pointed out that the SAF-2-safe tag is confusing and requested a rename: https://marc.info/?l=xen-devel&m=169634970821202 As documented by docs/misra/documenting-violations.rst: - SAF-X-safe: This tag means that the next line of code contains a finding, but the non compliance to the checker is analysed and demonstrated to be safe. - SAF-X-false-positive-<tool>: This tag means that the next line of code contains a finding, but the finding is a bug of the tool. Today we have already 28 instances of SAF tags in the Xen codebase. Andrew suggested "ANALYSIS" instead of SAF so I would imagine: - ANALYSIS-X-safe - ANALYSIS-X-false-positive-<tool> If we really want a rename I suggest to rename SAF to SAFE: - SAFE-X-safe - SAFE-X-false-positive-<tool> Or maybe MISRA: - MISRA-X-safe - MISRA-X-false-positive-<tool> But I actually prefer to keep the tag as it is today. If you have any naming suggestions please let me know by Oct 11. After that, I plan to run a Doodle poll to check the preference of the group. Cheers, Stefano
