Kernel normal form, or KNF, is the normal form used in the development of code for the BSD operating systems. Based on the original KNF concept from the Computer Systems Research Group, it dictates a code style to which contributed code should adhere prior to its inclusion into the codebase. It describes such things as how to name variables, use indents and the use of ANSI C or K&R C code styles. Each BSD variant has its own KNF rules, which differ from each other in small ways.
