The common layout for kbuild messages is as follows:

- 2 spaces
- 7 or more characters for the action
- 1 space
- name of the file being built/generated

The custom message formatting included an additional space in the action
part, which leads to misalignments with the rest of kbuild.

Could you give an example to show the output before/after the patch, and
how it leads to mis-alignment and why it is a problem?

Before:

   LD      .../linux/tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids-in.o
   LINK     resolve_btfids
   CHK     kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz

After:

   LD      .../linux/tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids-in.o
   LINK    resolve_btfids
   CHK     kernel/kheaders_data.tar.xz

The line starting with "LINK" has the filename "resolve_btfids" one
space character more to the right than the other lines.

Thanks! I would be great if you can put the details about
  (1) what are the command line to reproduce the issue, and
  (2) what the output differences,
to the commit message in all three patches.


It's slightly confusing when scanning the build logs.
