Fix files with checkpatch errors/warnings

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

 



Hi all,

I'm completely new to linux kernel development and I would like to
make a very first contribution by "cleaning" some files. I noticed
that the script checkpatch.pl (inside scripts/ folder) report lots of
style errors on some drivers.
For example try running ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --file
drivers/video/*, you will notice that most of the files contain style
issues.

My questions are: Is people actively fixing this? Maybe they are not
very interested on fixing this typos... Otherwise, could I contribute
by submitting patches on this?
And finally, if I do so, to who should I show this fixes?

Thanks.
