Hi Wolfgang,
I don't know if you have partially or fully automated your checkpatch'ing
but it looks like an automated daemon which grabs patches as they hit the
ML and runs them through checkpatch and does an auto-reply if any errors
or warning crop-up could be a good thing (even if the auto-reply is to the
author only so it doesn't clutter the list). This would free your time up
and also give patch authors faster feedback (and keep on annoying them so
they remember to run checkpatch)
Could also make it Cc the ML with a 'checkpatch clean' message so we all
can see that a checkpatch has been run
Alternativelty, we could make it a requirement of patch submittion that in
addition to the SoB, the author must include a checkpatch summary (below
the --)
Regards,
Graeme
