From: Paul Walmsley <paul.walmsley@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: scripts/spelling.txt: drop "sepc" from the misspelling list The RISC-V architecture has a register named the "Supervisor Exception Program Counter", or "sepc". This abbreviation triggers checkpatch.pl's misspelling detector, resulting in noise in the checkpatch output. The risk that this noise could cause more useful warnings to be missed seems to outweigh the harm of an occasional misspelling of "spec". Thus drop the "sepc" entry from the misspelling list. [akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: fix existing "sepc" instances, per Joe] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190518210037.13674-1-paul.walmsley@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Paul Walmsley <paul.walmsley@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_xics.c | 2 +- arch/unicore32/include/mach/regs-gpio.h | 2 +- drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/wifi.h | 2 +- drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_init.c | 2 +- drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/hal/rtl8723b_phycfg.c | 2 +- scripts/spelling.txt | 1 - 6 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) --- a/arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_xics.c~scripts-spellingtxt-drop-sepc-from-the-misspelling-list +++ a/arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_xics.c @@ -827,7 +827,7 @@ static noinline int kvmppc_h_eoi(struct * * Note: If EOI is incorrectly used by SW to lower the CPPR * value (ie more favored), we do not check for rejection of - * a pending interrupt, this is a SW error and PAPR sepcifies + * a pending interrupt, this is a SW error and PAPR specifies * that we don't have to deal with it. * * The sending of an EOI to the ICS is handled after the --- a/arch/unicore32/include/mach/regs-gpio.h~scripts-spellingtxt-drop-sepc-from-the-misspelling-list +++ a/arch/unicore32/include/mach/regs-gpio.h @@ -32,7 +32,7 @@ */ #define GPIO_GEDR (PKUNITY_GPIO_BASE + 0x0018) /* - * Sepcial Voltage Detect Reg GPIO_GPIR. + * Special Voltage Detect Reg GPIO_GPIR. */ #define GPIO_GPIR (PKUNITY_GPIO_BASE + 0x0020) --- a/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/wifi.h~scripts-spellingtxt-drop-sepc-from-the-misspelling-list +++ a/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/wifi.h @@ -598,7 +598,7 @@ enum ht_channel_width { HT_CHANNEL_WIDTH_MAX, }; -/* Ref: 802.11i sepc D10.0 7.3.2.25.1 +/* Ref: 802.11i spec D10.0 7.3.2.25.1 * Cipher Suites Encryption Algorithms */ enum rt_enc_alg { --- a/drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_init.c~scripts-spellingtxt-drop-sepc-from-the-misspelling-list +++ a/drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_init.c @@ -2963,7 +2963,7 @@ lpfc_stop_hba_timers(struct lpfc_hba *ph del_timer_sync(&phba->fcp_poll_timer); break; case LPFC_PCI_DEV_OC: - /* Stop any OneConnect device sepcific driver timers */ + /* Stop any OneConnect device specific driver timers */ lpfc_sli4_stop_fcf_redisc_wait_timer(phba); break; default: --- a/drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/hal/rtl8723b_phycfg.c~scripts-spellingtxt-drop-sepc-from-the-misspelling-list +++ a/drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/hal/rtl8723b_phycfg.c @@ -45,7 +45,7 @@ static u32 phy_CalculateBitShift(u32 Bit /** * Function: PHY_QueryBBReg * -* OverView: Read "sepcific bits" from BB register +* OverView: Read "specific bits" from BB register * * Input: * struct adapter * Adapter, --- a/scripts/spelling.txt~scripts-spellingtxt-drop-sepc-from-the-misspelling-list +++ a/scripts/spelling.txt @@ -1145,7 +1145,6 @@ senarios||scenarios sentivite||sensitive separatly||separately sepcify||specify -sepc||spec seperated||separated seperately||separately seperate||separate _
