If not, then this would break the build for those folks. We could just drop the shebang and the executable bit, and run "awk -f modify_srcu.awk" from whatever script invokes this. > tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/formal/srcu-cbmc/modify_srcu.awk | > 2 +- > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git > a/tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/formal/srcu-cbmc/modify_srcu.awk > b/tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/formal/srcu-cbmc/modify_srcu.awk > index 8ff8904..c9e8bc5 100755 > --- > a/tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/formal/srcu-cbmc/modify_srcu.awk > +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/formal/srcu-cbmc/modify_srcu. > +++ awk > @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ > -#!/bin/awk -f > +#!/usr/bin/awk -f > > # Modify SRCU for formal verification.
