If you make changes to C or C++ files, please make sure they are cleaned up to follow our style of coding. The best way to make sure of it is to run this:

$ clang-format -i -style=file /path/to/edited.c

Where /path/to/edited.c, the C or C++ file you edited. The option '-style=file' uses a predefined style file called .clang-format in the source tree.
