Annotated Snippet

// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only
/// Unsigned expressions cannot be lesser than zero. Presence of
/// comparisons 'unsigned (<|<=|>|>=) 0' often indicates a bug,
/// usually wrong type of variable.
///
/// To reduce number of false positives following tests have been added:
/// - parts of range checks are skipped, eg. "if (u < 0 || u > 15) ...",
///   developers prefer to keep such code,
/// - comparisons "<= 0" and "> 0" are performed only on results of
///   signed functions/macros,
/// - hardcoded list of signed functions/macros with always non-negative
///   result is used to avoid false positives difficult to detect by other ways
///
