SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style

2018-05-07T13:34:12Z

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line) and with slightly different comment styles than us. In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style. This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag and have introduced one. Signed-off-by: Tom Rini

patman: Format checkpatch messages for IDE throwback

2017-02-08T13:07:35Z

It is convenient to be able to deal with checkpatch warnings in the same way as build warnings. Tools such as emacs and kate can quickly locate the source file and line automatically. To achieve this, adjust the format to match the C compiler, and output to stderr. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Make print statements python 3.x safe

2016-10-09T15:30:32Z

In python 3.x, print must be used as a function call. Convert all print statements to the function call style, importing from __future__ where we print with no trailing newline or print to a file object. Signed-off-by: Paul Burton Acked-by: Simon Glass

patman: Adjust command.Output() to raise an error by default

2016-09-19T03:04:38Z

It is more useful to have this method raise an error when something goes wrong. Make this the default and adjust the few callers that don't want to use it this way. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

tools, scripts: refactor error-out statements of Python scripts

2014-08-21T16:01:11Z

In Python, sys.exit() function can also take an object other than an integer. If an integer is given to the argument, Python exits with the return code of it. If a non-integer argument is given, Python outputs it to stderr and exits with the return code of 1. That means, print >> sys.stderr, "Blah Blah" sys.exit(1) is equivalent to sys.exit("Blah Blah") The latter is a useful shorthand. Note: Some error messages in Buildman and Patman were output to stdout. But they should go to stderr. They are also fixed by this commit. This is a nice side effect.

patman: Fix up checkpatch parsing to deal with 'CHECK' lines

2013-04-04T21:04:34Z

checkpatch has a new type of warning, a 'CHECK'. At present patman fails with these, which makes it less than useful. Add support for checks, making it backwards compatible with the old checkpatch. At the same time, clean up formatting of the CheckPatches() output, fix erroneous "internal error" if multiple patches have warnings and be more robust to new types of problems.

patman: Allow use outside of u-boot tree

2013-01-31T23:23:40Z

To make it usable in git trees not providing a patch checker implementation, add a command line option, allowing to suppress patch check. While we are at it, sort debug options alphabetically. Also, do not raise an exception if checkpatch.pl is not found - just print an error message suggesting to use the new option, and return nonzero status. . unit test passes: $ ./patman -t . successfully used patman in the autotest tree to generate a patch email (with --no-check option) . successfully used patman in the u-boot tree to generate a patch email . `patman --help' now shows command line options ordered alphabetically Signed-off-by: Vadim Bendebury Acked-by: Doug Anderson Acked-by: Simon Glass

patman: Look for checkpatch in the scripts directory

2013-01-31T23:23:39Z

The Linux kernel stores checkpatch.pl in the scripts directory. Add that to the search path to make things more automatic for kernel development. Signed-off-by: Doug Anderson Acked-by: Simon Glass

patman: Handle checkpatch.pl not providing file/line info

2012-10-15T18:54:04Z

Sometimes we don't get a valid filename or line number from checkpatch.pl, for example if the patch is in a bad format. Deal with this by using a default value, rather than a stack trace. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
