[patch 06/25] checkpatch: correct check for kernel parameters doc

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

 



From: Tim Froidcoeur <tim.froidcoeur@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: checkpatch: correct check for kernel parameters doc

Adding a new kernel parameter with documentation makes checkpatch complain
"__setup appears un-documented -- check
Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst".  The list of kernel
parameters has moved to a separate txt file, but checkpatch has not been
updated for this.

Make checkpatch.pl look for the documentation for new kernel parameters in
kernel-parameters.txt instead of kernel-parameters.rst.

Fixes: e52347bd66f6 ("Documentation/admin-guide: split the kernel parameter list to a separate file")
