When I run checkpatch.pl, for every file I get the follwong or similar error. Could you please help if this is my environment issue or actually error in code which I need to fix ?
I executed the following in command prompt. perl scripts/checkpatch.pl -f drivers/staging/rtl8712/* |less
The error I observe drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_rf.h
Found the problem, patch submitted. It's a one-line fix: diff --git a/scripts/spdxcheck.py b/scripts/spdxcheck.py index 4fe392e507fb..7abd5f5cb14d 100755 --- a/scripts/spdxcheck.py +++ b/scripts/spdxcheck.py @@ -32,7 +32,7 @@ import os def read_spdxdata(repo): # The subdirectories of LICENSES in the kernel source - license_dirs = [ "preferred", "other", "exceptions" ] + license_dirs = [ "preferred", "dual", "deprecated", "exceptions" ] lictree = repo.head.commit.tree['LICENSES']
