Subject: [PATCH v2] checkpatch: skip warnings for symbol links
From: Geliang Tang <tanggeliang@...inos.cn>
If there is a symbol link in the given patch, like the following one:
$ cat 0001-selftests-bpf-Add-mptcp-pm_nl_ctl-link.patch
'''
# diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c \
# b/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c
# new file mode 120000
# index 000000000000..5a08c255b278
# --- /dev/null
# +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c
# @@ -0,0 +1 @@
# +../net/mptcp/pm_nl_ctl.c
# \ No newline at end of file
'''
checkpatch.pl reports two inaccurate warnings:
'''
WARNING: Missing or malformed SPDX-License-Identifier tag in line 1
#65: FILE: tools/testing/selftests/bpf/mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c:1:
+../net/mptcp/pm_nl_ctl.c
WARNING: adding a line without newline at end of file
#65: FILE: tools/testing/selftests/bpf/mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c:1:
+../net/mptcp/pm_nl_ctl.c
'''
And three checks if run it with strict option:
'''
CHECK: spaces preferred around that '/' (ctx:VxV)
#65: FILE: tools/testing/selftests/bpf/mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c:1:
+../net/mptcp/pm_nl_ctl.c
^
CHECK: spaces preferred around that '/' (ctx:VxV)
#65: FILE: tools/testing/selftests/bpf/mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c:1:

^
CHECK: spaces preferred around that '/' (ctx:VxV)
#65: FILE: tools/testing/selftests/bpf/mptcp_pm_nl_ctl.c:1:
+../net/mptcp/pm_nl_ctl.c
'''
This patch fixes this by adding a new variable $symbol_link in checkpatch
script, set it if the new file mode is 120000. Skip "missing or malformed
SPDX-License-Identifier tag", "adding a line without newline at end of
file" and "spaces preferred around that '/'" checks if this variable is
set.
