You don't like check-symbol-change.sh ? It may be stupid, but I thought "validate" is more related to full test, like validate-abi.sh does for the ABI, and "check" can be a partial test like done in checkpatches.sh. > + }' > ./$mapdb > + > + sort -u $mapdb > ./$mapdb.2 > + mv -f $mapdb.2 $mapdb [...] > +mapfile=`mktemp mapdb.XXXXXX` [...] > +rm -f $mapfile If you create temporary file, you should remove it in a trap cleanup, in case of interrupted processing. The best is to avoid temp file, but use variables instead.
