From 831242ab8dffab4cf2f89c597d5902ac86caeefe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aditya Srivastava Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2020 20:45:12 -0800 Subject: checkpatch: add fix and improve warning msg for non-standard signature Currently checkpatch warns for BAD_SIGN_OFF on non-standard signature styles. A large number of these warnings occur because of typo mistakes in signature tags. An evaluation over v4.13..v5.8 showed that out of 539 warnings due to non-standard signatures, 87 are due to typo mistakes. Following are the standard signature tags which are often incorrectly used, along with their individual counts of incorrect use (over v4.13..v5.8): Reviewed-by: 42 Signed-off-by: 25 Reported-by: 6 Acked-by: 4 Tested-by: 4 Suggested-by: 4 Provide a fix by calculating levenshtein distance for the signature tag with all the standard signatures and suggest a fix with a signature, whose edit distance is less than or equal to 2 with the misspelled signature. Out of the 86 mispelled signatures fixed with this approach, 85 were found to be good corrections and 1 was bad correction. Following was found to be a bad correction: Tweeted-by (count: 1) => Tested-by Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201128204333.7054-1-yashsri421@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Aditya Srivastava Acked-by: Joe Perches Cc: Lukas Bulwahn Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- scripts/checkpatch.pl | 71 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 69 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'scripts') diff --git a/scripts/checkpatch.pl b/scripts/checkpatch.pl index 241c064f358b..d7616a6f1436 100755 --- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl +++ b/scripts/checkpatch.pl @@ -506,6 +506,64 @@ our $signature_tags = qr{(?xi: Cc: )}; +sub edit_distance_min { + my (@arr) = @_; + my $len = scalar @arr; + if ((scalar @arr) < 1) { + # if underflow, return + return; + } + my $min = $arr[0]; + for my $i (0 ..
