is it possible to add .clang-format to the project?

[unikzforce]

can you please kindly add .clang-format file to the project so the coding style of the PRs could be standard?

I tried to send a PR but it had many style problems that i needed to fix.

also i would really appreciate if you added .idea inside the .gitignore to add support for CLion editor.

I can send the PR as well if you prefer.

I'm not sure what should be the proper format for this repository, I am testing this as my own .clang-format file inside the root of the project, but it seems that it's not completely 100% aligned with code style of the project:

we follow Linux kernel coding style (https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/coding-style.html)

If it's possible to set up .clang-format to follow the same, then sure, why not?

And sure, it's fine to update .gitignore with common stuff like .idea, please send PR.

[unikzforce]

sure, then i guess i can try this file:
