Subject: [PATCH] tools/testing/selftests/mm: add missing .gitignore entries
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 15:18:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831-fix-mm-selftests-gitignore-v1-1-c984bbd4c5e4@kernel.org> (raw)
Commit 2bee308f3adb ("selftests/mm: use pattern matching in .gitignore")
switched to a pattern-matching mechanism to reduce churn in .gitignore.
It however accidentally excluded the page_frag test's-generated module
intermediate C file with .mod.c extension, and also the local_config.h
header generated if liburing is available locally.
Explicitly fix both the issues, fixing the module-generated C file as a
general pattern as these are always intermediate files that should be
ignored.
Since this is a trivial .gitignore change it doesn't seem necessary to
treat it as a hotfix.
