Write and Submit Your First Kernel Patch

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Just before I send my patch I got this error with:
./scripts/checkpatch.pl --terse --file
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch

0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch:27: ERROR: trailing whitespace
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch:35: ERROR: trailing whitespace
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch:43: ERROR: trailing whitespace
0001-Staging-comedi-driver-fix-coding-style.patch:53: ERROR: trailing whitespace

I have done a step by step explanation of what I have done:
http://kapare.blogspot.com/2009/09/write-and-submit-your-first-kernel.html

It seem to me that the whitespace are added after I do this command:
git format-patch -s -n master..mybranch

Can someone help me with that because google did help me to found the answer?

Thx

kap
