When there are filenames of the form ".orig" or ".rej" in the Documenatation/ABI/ subdirectories, there can be confusing or erroneous output generated. Example: the file Documenation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-papr-pmem.orig causes this warning message: Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-papr-pmem:2: WARNING: unknown document: '/powerpc/papr_hcalls' Prevent this by skipping over filenames that may be created by patch/diff tools etc. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@xxxxxxx> Cc: linux-doc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/get_abi.pl | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff -- a/scripts/get_abi.pl b/scripts/get_abi.pl --- a/scripts/get_abi.pl +++ b/scripts/get_abi.pl @@ -93,6 +93,7 @@ sub parse_abi { return if ($mode & S_IFDIR); return if ($file =~ m,/README,); return if ($file =~ m,/\.,); + return if ($file =~ m,\.(rej|org|orig|bak)$,); my $name = $file; $name =~ s,.*/,,;
