We need to put $(SIGNFAIL) before the perl script invocation or we get errors because mod_sign_cmd is passed an argument and sign-file is treating the "|| $(SIGNFAIL)" as something it's passed. That was the only change I needed to make and it works as expected. Do you want me to send a v2 of the patch, or will you add it yourself given you've basically written the code? Either way works for me. josh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
