Steven Rostedt a5e71638dd ktest.pl: Add new PATCHCHECK_SKIP option to skip testing individual commits ... When testing a series of commits that also includes changes to the Linux tools directory, it is useless to test the changes in tools as they may not affect the kernel itself. Doing tests on the kernel for changes that do not affect the kernel is a waste of time. Add a PATCHCHECK_SKIP that takes a series of shas that will be skipped while doing the individual commit tests. For example, the runtime verification may have a series of commits like: $ git log --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline fac5493251a6~1..HEAD 3d3800b4f7 rv: Remove rv_reactor's reference counter 3d3c376118 rv: Merge struct rv_reactor_def into struct rv_reactor 24cbfe18d5 rv: Merge struct rv_monitor_def into struct rv_monitor b0c08dd534 rv: Remove unused field in struct rv_monitor_def 58d5f0d437 (debiantesting-x86-64/trace/rv/core) rv: Return init error when registering monitors 560473f2e2 verification/rvgen: Organise Kconfig entries for nested monitors 9efcf59082 tools/dot2c: Fix generated files going over 100 column limit 1160ccaf77 tools/rv: Stop gracefully also on SIGTERM f60227f344 tools/rv: Do not skip idle in trace f3735df628 verification/rvgen: Do not generate unused variables 6fb37c2a27 verification/rvgen: Generate each variable definition only once 8cfcf9b0e9 verification/rvgen: Support the 'next' operator fac5493251 rv: Allow to configure the number of per-task monitor Where the first commit touches the kernel followed by a series of commits that do not, and ends with commits that do. Instead of having to add multiple patchcheck tests to handle the gaps, just include the commits that should not be tested: $ git log --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline fac5493251a6~1..HEAD | grep -e verification -e tools/ | cut -d' ' -f1 | while read a ; do echo -n "$a "; done 560473f2e2 9efcf59082 1160ccaf77 f60227f344 f3735df628 6fb37c2a27 8cfcf9b0e9 Then set PATCHCHECK_SKIP to that, and those commits will be skipped. PATCHCHECK_SKIP = 560473f2e2 9efcf59082 1160ccaf77 f60227f344 f3735df628 6fb37c2a27 8cfcf9b0e9 Cc: John 'Warthog9' Hawley <warthog9@kernel.org> Cc: Dhaval Giani <dhaval.giani@gmail.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250725112153.1dd06b84@gandalf.local.home Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>		2025-07-29 09:30:08 -04:00
