[XEN PATCH] automation/eclair: add deviations of MISRA C Rule 5.5
Posted by Federico Serafini 5 months ago
MISRA C Rule 5.5 states that "Identifiers shall be distinct from macro
names".

Update ECLAIR configuration to deviate:
- macros expanding to their own name;
- clashes between macros and non-callable entities;
- clashes related to the selection of specific implementations of string
  handling functions.

I would like to ask for a release-ack as its effect is limited to ECLAIR
analysis results and rule 5.5 is not blocking anyway (it is allowed to
fail).
