The quilt patch titled Subject: scripts: checkpatch: check unused parameters for function-like macro has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was scripts-checkpatch-check-unused-parameters-for-function-like-macro.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Xining Xu <ma.xxn@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: scripts: checkpatch: check unused parameters for function-like macro Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2024 21:49:37 +1300 If function-like macros do not utilize a parameter, it might result in a build warning. In our coding style guidelines, we advocate for utilizing static inline functions to replace such macros. This patch verifies compliance with the new rule. For a macro such as the one below, #define test(a) do { } while (0) The test result is as follows. ERROR: Parameter 'a' is not used in function-like macro, please use static inline instead #21: FILE: mm/init-mm.c:20: +#define test(a) do { } while (0) total: 1 errors, 0 warnings, 8 lines checked Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240322084937.66018-3-21cnbao@xxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Xining Xu <ma.xxn@xxxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Chris Zankel <chris@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mark Brown <broonie@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dwaipayan Ray <dwaipayanray1@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@xxxxxxx> Cc: Lukas Bulwahn <lukas.bulwahn@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/checkpatch.pl | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+) --- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl~scripts-checkpatch-check-unused-parameters-for-function-like-macro +++ a/scripts/checkpatch.pl @@ -6109,6 +6109,30 @@ sub process { WARN("TRAILING_SEMICOLON", "macros should not use a trailing semicolon\n" .
