Linus Torvalds is subject to the kernel annotation punctuation format

Linus Torvalds once again worried about the Linux kernel email developer list, and called the code annotation punctuation format favored by some programmers as "Brainless ". The format of the annotation he strongly opposes is similar:

/* This is disgusting drug-induced * crap, and shoshould die */

And

/* This is also very nasty * and visually unbalanced */

He personally supports the following formats:

/* This is a comment */and/** This is also a comment, but it can now be cleanly * split over multiple lines */
