H A D | checkpatch.pl | 8e1fe175 Wed Sep 13 09:10:00 GMT 2017 Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com> scripts: let checkpatch.pl process an entire GIT branch
Currently before submitting a series, devs should run checkpatch.pl across each patch to be submitted. This can be automated using a command such as:
git rebase -i master -x 'git show | ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -'
This is rather long winded to type, so this patch introduces a way to tell checkpatch.pl to validate a series of GIT revisions.
There are now three modes it can operate in 1) check a patch 2) check a source file, or 3) check a git branch.
If no flags are given, the mode is determined by checking the args passed to the command. If the args contain a literal ".." it is treated as a GIT revision list. If the args end in ".patch" or equal "-" it is treated as a patch file. Otherwise it is treated as a source file.
This automatic guessing can be overridden using --[no-]patch --[no-]file or --[no-]branch
For example to check a GIT revision list:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl master.. total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 297 lines checked
b886d352a2bf58f0996471fb3991a138373a2957 has no obvious style problems and is ready for submission. total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 182 lines checked
2a731f9a9ce145e0e0df6d42dd2a3ce4dfc543fa has no obvious style problems and is ready for submission. total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 102 lines checked
11844169bcc0c8ed4449eb3744a69877ed329dd7 has no obvious style problems and is ready for submission.
If a genuine patch filename contains the characters '..' it is possible to force interpretation of the arg as a patch
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --patch master..
will force it to load a patch file called "master..", or equivalently
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --no-branch master..
will simply turn off guessing of GIT revision lists.
