This report contains the work done during the first 3 weeks of the Community Bridge program for the project Refurbishing Make Coccicheck.

After the initial discussion with my mentor, the project work for the first phase was divided into 2 parts:

Week 1-2: Identifying key areas where the coccicheck script can be improved- both in terms of usability and performance.
Week 3: Test coccinelle scripts, send patches as required, and eventually improve and incorporate them into the linux kernel.
