Yes, but there is a few issues with this: - 'test-suite single file.c' doesn't exit with the right return code yet - parallelizing tests with make won't return the summary of the tests (which may or may not be needed) - the error messages could be mixed in - make would stop at the first error (which may be OK or not) - would be better used with something like 'test-suite --very-quiet file.c' -- Luc -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sparse" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
