A simple script to run checkpatch --fix for various types of of cleanups. [] Anyway, try running this script on drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/lnet/acceptor.c to see how this build fails.
lustre doesn't use "normal" kernel makefiles. I supposed that the entire staging/lustre/ path could be built for every change, but for most of staging, and nearly all of the rest of the kernel tree, using: make <path>file.o works. I know there can be many enhancements to the reformat script, but I think a minimally acceptable version is a decent start. So, thanks for trying it out. And keep the complaints coming. cheers, Joe
