From: Ariel Marcovitch <arielmarcovitch@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 1439ebd2ce77242400518d4e6a1e85bebcd8084f ] It seems like the implementation of the --ignore option is broken. In check_symbols_helper, when going through the list of files, a file is added to the list of source files to check if it matches the ignore pattern. Instead, as stated in the comment below this condition, the file should be added if it doesn't match the pattern. This means that when providing an ignore pattern, the only files that will be checked will be the ones we want the ignore, in addition to the Kconfig files that don't match the pattern (the check in parse_kconfig_files is done right) Signed-off-by: Ariel Marcovitch <arielmarcovitch@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py b/scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py index a32e4da4c117..d96ea8ded18a 100755 --- a/scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py +++ b/scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py @@ -329,7 +329,7 @@ def check_symbols_helper(pool, ignore): if REGEX_FILE_KCONFIG.match(gitfile): kconfig_files.append(gitfile) else: - if ignore and not re.match(ignore, gitfile): + if ignore and re.match(ignore, gitfile): continue # add source files that do not match the ignore pattern source_files.append(gitfile) -- 2.30.2
