Description Sandro Bonazzola (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-11-22 10:27:27 UTC
Smatch is C source checker like splint and others. It's used for wine and linux kernel development. It could be very useful due to it's plug-in support:

"Since writing Smatch scripts is so easy, coders can check for things specific to their own programs. One user described writing his script as, "a trivial task." Some scripts are harder than others, of course. If you have a hard time writing your script email us at smatch-discuss[at]lists.sf.net. If it is a kernel related script, it would be nice to add it to the Smatch CVS. If it is not kernel related email us anyway."

No progress here for 1 year, closing WONTFIX.

Feel free to reopen with an ebuild.
