Add KVM selftests' one-off assets, e.g. the Makefile, to the .gitignore so that they are explicitly included. The justification for omitting the one-offs was that including them wouldn't help prevent mistakes: Deliberately do not include the one-off assets, e.g. config, settings, .gitignore itself, etc as Git doesn't ignore files that are already in the repository. Adding the one-off assets won't prevent mistakes where developers forget to --force add files that don't match the "allowed". Turns out that's not the case, as W=1 will generate warnings, and the amazing-as-always kernel test bot reports new warnings: tools/testing/selftests/kvm/.gitignore: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files tools/testing/selftests/kvm/Makefile: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files >> tools/testing/selftests/kvm/Makefile.kvm: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files tools/testing/selftests/kvm/config: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files tools/testing/selftests/kvm/settings: warning: ignored by one of the .gitignore files Fixes: 43e96957e8b8 ("KVM: selftests: Use pattern matching in .gitignore") Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202408211818.85zIkDEK-lkp@xxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx> --- tools/testing/selftests/kvm/.gitignore | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/.gitignore b/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/.gitignore index 6d9381d60172..7f57abf936e7 100644 --- a/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/.gitignore +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/.gitignore @@ -5,3 +5,7 @@ !*.h !*.S !*.sh +!.gitignore +!config +!settings +!Makefile base-commit: 15e1c3d65975524c5c792fcd59f7d89f00402261 -- 2.46.0.295.g3b9ea8a38a-goog
