Subject: Write and Submit Your First Kernel Patch
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2009 14:46:24 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <dc1d0f40910231146y14028f4el9753debdf334103@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
Just before I send my patch I got this error with:
./scripts/checkpatch.pl --terse --file
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch:27: ERROR: trailing whitespace
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch:35: ERROR: trailing whitespace
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch:43: ERROR: trailing whitespace
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch:53: ERROR: trailing whitespace
I have done a step by step explanation of what I have done:
http://kapare.blogspot.com/2009/09/write-and-submit-your-first-kernel.html
It seem to me that the whitespace are added after I do this command:
git format-patch -s -n master..mybranch
Can someone help me with that because google did help me to found the answer?
Thx
kap
