From 75442fb0ccaacddf1654a5304401a9f556c61004 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Fri, 30 Oct 2020 08:40:45 +0100 Subject: docs: Kconfig/Makefile: add a check for broken ABI files The files under Documentation/ABI should follow the syntax as defined at Documentation/ABI/README. Allow checking if they're following the syntax by running the ABI parser script on COMPILE_TEST. With that, when there's a problem with a file under Documentation/ABI, it would produce a warning like: Warning: file ./Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci-devices-aer_stats#14: What '/sys/bus/pci/devices//aer_stats/aer_rootport_total_err_cor' doesn't have a description Warning: file ./Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci-devices-aer_stats#21: What '/sys/bus/pci/devices//aer_stats/aer_rootport_total_err_fatal' doesn't have a description Acked-by: Jonathan Corbet Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/57a38de85cb4b548857207cf1fc1bf1ee08613c9.1604042072.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- Documentation/Kconfig | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) (limited to 'Documentation/Kconfig') diff --git a/Documentation/Kconfig b/Documentation/Kconfig index 66046fa1c341..e549a61f4d96 100644 --- a/Documentation/Kconfig +++ b/Documentation/Kconfig @@ -10,4 +10,14 @@ config WARN_MISSING_DOCUMENTS If unsure, select 'N'. +config WARN_ABI_ERRORS + bool "Warn if there are errors at ABI files" + depends on COMPILE_TEST + help + The files under Documentation/ABI should follow what's + described at Documentation/ABI/README.
