From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@amd.com>
Add 14.3, with project-wide deviations.
Also take the opportunity to clarify that parameters of function pointer
types are expected to have names (Rule 8.2).
Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@amd.com>

Changes in v2:
- add switch to the Rule 14.3 exceptions
- add "and alike" for while(0) and while(1)

In my earlier reply I had included sizeof() for a reason. Also (nit) there's at least a comma missing after "if". To make clear it's keywords that are meant, maybe better use if() / switch()? Jan

In > my earlier reply I had included sizeof() for a reason. I agree with you that it would be better to restrict it to only some switch uses, rather than all of them. But if we are going to restrict the deviation to switch(sizeof()), which I think is a good idea and I am in favor, wouldn't it be better to handle these cases as individual deviations? E.g. docs/misra/safe.json? I am assuming there are only few cases like that and adding it here makes the rule more complicated. I am happy either way but I wanted to provide that as an option. > Also (nit) there's at least a comma missing after "if".

In this case, from a cursory glance at the present violations, it seems that there are maybe a handful of switches inside macros, so they shouldn't be problematic to deal with. -- Nicola Vetrini, BSc Software Engineer, BUGSENG srl (https://bugseng.com)

That's what I thought as well and why I suggested to only deal with them in safe.json. However, it doesn't cost us anything to be extra clear, so I'll send an updated patch with extra clarity.

For one, anything written here still needs respective SAF annotations for scanners to be uniformly aware (dealing with deviations in just the Eclair configuration is imo dubious). And then my general view is that by stating patterns here we make clear that we tolerate new instances of such constructs, whereas in other cases we'd be aiming at no deviations in new code. Jan
