Subject: [PATCH RFC v3 0/3] checkpatch: add verbose mode
Date: Sat, 13 Feb 2021 18:45:10 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210213131513.51386-1-dwaipayanray1@gmail.com> (raw)
Add a new verbose mode to checkpatch. The verbose test
descriptions are read from the checkpatch documentation
file at `Documentation/dev-tools/checkpatch.rst`.
The verbose mode is optional and can be enabled by the
flag -v or --verbose.
The documentation file is only parsed by checkpatch.pl
if the verbose mode is enabled. The verbose mode is also
suppressed when the --terse option is specified.
Changes in v3:
- Simplify documentation file parsing in checkpatch
- Document a total of 33 message types for checkpatch
Changes in v2:
- Use .rst Field Lists to specify the type descriptions.
- Add a few more type descriptions to documentation.
