Coding Guidelines
#################
The project TSC and the Safety Committee of the project agreed to implement
a staged and incremental approach for complying with a set of coding rules (AKA
Coding Guidelines) to improve quality and consistency of the code base. Below
are the agreed upon stages and the approximate timelines:
Stage I
Coding guideline rules are available to be followed and referenced,
but not enforced. Rules are not yet enforced in CI and pull-requests cannot be
blocked by reviewers/approvers due to violations.
Stage II
Begin enforcement on a limited scope of the code base. Initially this would be
the safety certification scope. For rules easily applied across codebase, we
should not limit compliance to initial scope. This step requires tooling and
CI setup.
This stage will begin during the 2.4 development cycle and end with the Zephyr
LTS2 (2.6) to achieve and LTS2 that is ready for certification.
Stage III
Revisit the coding guideline rules and based on experience from previous
stages, refine/iterate on selected rules. This stage is to start after LTS2.
Stage IV
Expand enforcement to the wider codebase. Exceptions may be granted on some
areas of the codebase with a proper justification. Exception would require
TSC approval.
.. note::
Coding guideline rules may be removed/changed at any time by filing a
GH issue/RFC.
Main rules
**********
The coding guideline rules are based on MISRA-C 2012 and are a subset of MISRA-C.
The subset is listed in the table below with a summary of the rules, its
severity and the equivlent rules from other standards for reference.
.. note::
For existing Zephyr maintainers and collaborators, if you are unable to
obtain a copy through your employer, a limited number of copies will be made
available through the project. If you need a copy of MISRA-C 2012, please
send email to safety@lists.zephyrproject.org and provide details on reason
why you can't obtain one through other options and expected contributions
once you have one. The safety committee will review all requests.

Additional rules
****************
Rule A.1: Conditional Compilation
=================================
Severity
--------
Required
Description
-----------
Do not conditionally compile function declarations in header files. Do not
conditionally compile structure declarations in header files. You may
conditionally exclude fields within structure definitions to avoid wasting
memory when the feature they support is not enabled.
Rationale
---------
Excluding declarations from the header based on compile-time options may prevent
their documentation from being generated. Their absence also prevents use of
``if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_FOO)) {}`` as an alternative to preprocessor
conditionals when the code path should change based on the selected options.

Rule A.2: Inclusive Language
============================
Severity
--------
Required
Description
-----------
Do not introduce new usage of offensive terms listed below. This rule applies
but is not limited to source code, comments, documentation, and branch names.
Replacement terms may vary by area or subsystem, but should aim to follow
updated industry standards when possible.
Exceptions are allowed for maintaining existing implementations or adding new
implementations of industry standard specifications governed externally to the
Zephyr Project.
Existing usage is recommended to change as soon as updated industry standard
specifications become available or new terms are publicly announced by the
governing body, or immediately if no specifications apply.
.. list-table::
:header-rows: 1
* - Offensive Terms
- Recommended Replacements
* - ``{master,leader} / slave``
- - ``{primary,main} / {secondary,replica}``
- ``{initiator,requester} / {target,responder}``
- ``{controller,host} / {device,worker,proxy,target}``
- ``director / performer``
- ``central / peripheral``
* - ``blacklist / whitelist``
- * ``denylist / allowlist``
* ``blocklist / allowlist``
* ``rejectlist / acceptlist``
* - ``grandfather policy``
- * ``legacy``
* - ``sanity``
- * ``coherence``
* ``confidence``
Rationale
---------
Offensive terms do not create an inclusive community environment and therefore
violate the Zephyr Project `Code of Conduct`_. This coding rule was inspired by
a similar rule in `Linux`_.

terminology is confirmed by a public announcement or updated
