c indent when a function has other attributes

c indent when a function has other attributes

[Luca Ferrari]

Hi al,
I'm having this problem with c-mode and C-M-\ (withour any regard to
the c-style): when a function declaration has an __alignment__ gcc
macro Emacs seems to screw up all indentation.
For example:

static void foo(char *bar) __attribute__((noreturn));
static void bar();

when I indent the code I end up with something like:

static void foo(char *bar) __attribute__((noreturn));

static void bar();

where the lines following the __attribute__ macro are all screwed up.
Is there a way to instrument Emacs to "indent" by means of the semicolon?

Thanks,
Luca

Full disclosure: I didn't look through the details of your 
example, but have you tried using treesitter? To a certain extent 
problems with indentation (and font lock) with the non-treesitter 
code is "inevitable".

I had exactly the same happen with some of my Java code, and it 
was easier to switch to treesitter than figure out why it was 
happening.
