How to create patch for checkpatch.pl cleanups

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello Linux Newbies, I'm one too. I was looking out for some clean up work and I ran the checkpatch.pl script. I came across a file with some 400 errors and 200 warnings. Now there were bunch of 80 char per line warning , braces and related things. I don't want to be sending patches for each and every error or warning I fix as it becomes tedious and If i send lots of correction patches in one go the kernel maintainers wont accept it. I want to know Can we correct all similar errors or warnings in one patch? or series of patches?
