This series cleans up and clarifies certain issues in the checkpatch infrastructure. Additionally, a fix for the some of the matches is included.
The two features added by this series are: 1. The ability to parse a non-patch file (useful for applying cleanups to existing code) 2. Printing the line number where a change occurs in the file, instead of in the patchfile. With these two features, a simple script for check_file in lib/*.c; do ./utilities/checkpatch.py -f $check_file; done will print a number of violations (hopefully, correctly!). Aaron Conole (7): checkpatch: Announce the file where errors occur checkpatch: Print the line in question distinctly checkpatch: convert some of the warnings checkpatch: Print file line numbers checkpatch: Fix signoff error checkpatch: Add file-parsing mode checkpatch: fix the if and whitespace checks utilities/checkpatch.py | 92 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- 1 file changed, 72 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) -- 2.7.4 _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
