Hello,
I am facing a problem while creating the configuration. I am trying to make a clang-format that formats codes without changing any codebases. Here is the question:

clang-format related config:
...
BraceWrapping:
        AfterFunction: true
...

If the configuration supports braces after function, then MACRO's formats fail. 

An example of the formatted MACRO is given below:
...
#define RTE_RX_OFFLOAD_BIT2STR(_name)              \
{                                          \
...

If the AfterFunction is false, the functions' formats fail; here is a formatted example.
...
 if (devargs_str == NULL) {
...

I will send the current configuration as v2. You can test it.
