Replace the checkpatches.sh shell script that wraps the Linux kernel's checkpatch.pl with a standalone Python implementation. The new checkpatches.py script provides equivalent functionality without requiring the kernel source tree or Perl.
Performance is significantly improved: checking a recent flow parser patch series dropped from 2m23s to 0.43s (approximately 300x faster). The script is in a beta test state, it finds the same or more issues as the original. Features: Patch validation: - Format validation and corruption detection - Signed-off-by verification - Fixes tag format checking - Line length and trailing whitespace checks Kernel checkpatch.pl compatible checks: - AVOID_EXTERNS, UNNECESSARY_BREAK, COMPLEX_MACRO - STRNCPY/STRCPY, RETURN_PARENTHESES, POINTER_LOCATION - INITIALISED_STATIC, GLOBAL_INITIALISERS, DEEP_INDENTATION - TRAILING_STATEMENTS, LINE_CONTINUATIONS, ONE_SEMICOLON - REPEATED_WORD, CONSTANT_COMPARISON, SELF_ASSIGNMENT - INLINE_LOCATION, STORAGE_CLASS, FUNCTION_WITHOUT_ARGS - MACRO_WITH_FLOW_CONTROL, MULTISTATEMENT_MACRO_USE_DO_WHILE - PREFER_DEFINED_ATTRIBUTE_MACRO (using DPDK __rte_* macros) - TYPO_SPELLING via codespell dictionary DPDK-specific forbidden token checks: - RTE_LOG usage (prefer RTE_LOG_LINE) - printf/fprintf to stdout/stderr in libs/drivers - rte_panic/rte_exit, direct __attribute__ usage - Deprecated atomics (rte_atomicNN_xxx, rte_smp_[rw]mb) - Compiler builtins (__sync_xxx, __atomic_xxx, __builtin_xxx) - pthread functions (prefer rte_thread) - Reserved keywords, pragma, variadic macros DPDK tag validation: - __rte_experimental and __rte_internal placement - __rte_packed_begin/end pairing - __rte_aligned attribute checking Git integration: - Check commits by range (-r) or count (-n) - Read patches from files or stdin Known limitations: - BRACES check not implemented (requires multi-line analysis) This script was developed with assistance from the Claude AI assistant.
