Subject: Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] StandaloneMmPkg/StandaloneMmCore: Fix 
compiler warning

Hi Sami,

I'm happy to change the spacing. The code base is very inconsistent with 
this (a somewhat similar scenario would be space before opening 
parenthesis) and it often trends toward a space after the cast. The 
space before opening parenthesis is clearly required. However, I've 
never managed to find a definitive statement in the EDK II C Coding 
Standards Specification regarding typecast spacing.
[SAMI] I agree the code base is inconsistent. However, there are initiatives 
like the ECC tool that aim to improve this. 
If EDKII core CI is enabled for a Package, it should run the ECC tool. This 
should prevent new code from introducing inconsistencies i.e., if a check for 
that rule exists in ECC.
Unfortunately, the EDKII coding standard also has instances of conflicting 
examples, which I think need improvement.
[/SAMI]

For my own future benefit, could you please point me to the definitive 
statement regarding this rule in the specification?
[SAMI] I agree there is no explicit example for the cast rule in the 
specification. However, please see point 2 of the horizontal spacing rules at: 
https://edk2-docs.gitbook.io/edk-ii-c-coding-standards-specification/v/release%2F2.20/3_quick_reference#3-2-3-formatting-horizontal-spacing
[/SAMI]

In the specification itself, the following section has no space between 
the typecast and the variable:
https://edk2-docs.gitbook.io/edk-ii-c-coding-standards-specification/v/release%2F2.20/5_source_files/57_c_programming#5-7-2-3-comparison-of-unsigned-integer-types-to-be-greater-than-0-is-permitted

The following section does have a space between the typecast and variable:
https://edk2-docs.gitbook.io/edk-ii-c-coding-standards-specification/v/release%2F2.20/5_source_files/57_c_programming#5-7-2-4-the-ordering-of-terms-in-predicate-expressions-may-impact-performance-significantly

Thanks,
Michael
