If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sasha Levin commit d1db4118489fffd2b2f612140b7acbb477880839 upstream. The Assisted-by tag was introduced in Documentation/process/coding-assistants.rst for attributing AI tool contributions to kernel patches. However, checkpatch.pl did not recognize this tag, causing two issues: WARNING: Non-standard signature: Assisted-by: ERROR: Unrecognized email address: 'AGENT_NAME:MODEL_VERSION' Fix this by: 1. Adding Assisted-by to the recognized $signature_tags list 2. Skipping email validation for Assisted-by lines since they use the AGENT_NAME:MODEL_VERSION format instead of an email address 3. Warning when the Assisted-by value doesn't match the expected format Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20260311215818.518930-1-sashal@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin Reported-by: Bart Van Assche Acked-by: Joe Perches Cc: Andy Whitcroft Cc: Dwaipayan Ray Cc: Jonathan Corbet Cc: Lukas Bulwahn Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- scripts/checkpatch.pl | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) --- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl +++ b/scripts/checkpatch.pl @@ -641,6 +641,7 @@ our $signature_tags = qr{(?xi: Reviewed-by:| Reported-by:| Suggested-by:| + Assisted-by:| To:| Cc: )}; @@ -3105,6 +3106,15 @@ sub process { } } + # Assisted-by uses AGENT_NAME:MODEL_VERSION format, not email + if ($sign_off =~ /^Assisted-by:/i) { + if ($email !~ /^\S+:\S+/) { + WARN("BAD_SIGN_OFF", + "Assisted-by expects 'AGENT_NAME:MODEL_VERSION [TOOL1] [TOOL2]' format\n" . $herecurr); + } + next; + } + my ($email_name, $name_comment, $email_address, $comment) = parse_email($email); my $suggested_email = format_email(($email_name, $name_comment, $email_address, $comment)); if ($suggested_email eq "") {
