After this change, checkpatch only raise warning when help text only contain 1 line. Some options try to workaround this check by adding 2 lines template like 'If you have this device...' which doesn't add value. --- scripts/checkpatch.pl | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/scripts/checkpatch.pl b/scripts/checkpatch.pl index 403ebbc..4bfb23b 100755 --- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl +++ b/scripts/checkpatch.pl @@ -47,7 +47,7 @@ my $configuration_file = ".checkpatch.conf"; my $max_line_length = 80; my $ignore_perl_version = 0; my $minimum_perl_version = 5.10.0; -my $min_conf_desc_length = 4; +my $min_conf_desc_length = 2; my $spelling_file = "$D/spelling.txt"; my $codespell = 0; my $codespellfile = "/usr/share/codespell/dictionary.txt"; -- 1.9.1
