Subject: Problem in "Pick a warning, and try to fix it": Don't have a warning to pick
Date: Thu, 9 Mar 2023 05:57:55 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZAkE4w/T389R2+Er@CloudiRingWorld> (raw)
Hello, I am Kloudifold, an Outreachy applicant.
I'm reading https://kernelnewbies.org/Outreachyfirstpatch and trying to make my first patch. It says, "Pick a warning, and try to fix it. For your first patch, only pick one warning.", but when I used the command:
> perl scripts/checkpatch.pl -f drivers/staging/*/* | grep "[1-9] warnings" -B 10 -A 2
I can only find warnings for drivers/staging/axis-fifo/axis-fifo.c, a file that is already being submitted to the mailing list, which means I don't have a warning to pick.
How should I finish my first patch in this case? Should I look for something more difficult than changing the coding style?
