checkpatch.pl: Report an error for CONFIG_xPL_BUILD in device trees

2025-03-18T14:17:36+00:00

The defines for the different build phases shouldn't be used in device
trees, currently they aren't even defined for device tree pre processing,
resulting in build errors.

scripts/checkpatch.pl: Upgrade IS_ENABLED_CONFIG to error for U-Boot

2025-03-05T18:14:49+00:00

A problem we have today is that some instances of IS_ENABLED(FOO) have
crept in to the code. This is in turn because with checkpatch.pl this is
only a warning and not an error, so they were overlooked. And looking
deeper, in the Linux kernel this pattern is allowed because
IS_ENABLED(DEFINED_FLAG) is allowed if discouraged and a quick skim of
the instances I saw in the current kernel follow this pattern. In U-Boot
however, this is not allowed, so bump to an error.

checkpatch.pl: Make common.h check boarder

2023-10-24T20:34:45+00:00

At this point in time we should not add common.h to any new files, so
make checkpatch.pl complain.

scripts/checkpatch.pl: Resync with v5.16

2022-02-03T17:16:00+00:00

This resyncs us with the version found in v5.16 of the Linux kernel with
the following exceptions:
- Keep our u-boot specific tests / code area.
- Change the location of checkpatch.rst
- Drop the "use strscpy" test as we don't have that, but do have strlcpy
  and want that used now.
- Keep debug/printf in the list for $logFunctions

This also syncs the spdxcheck.py tool and all the associated
documentation.

scripts/checkpatch.pl: Resync with v5.13

2021-09-01T23:25:37+00:00

This resyncs us with the version found in v5.13 of the Linux kernel with
the following exceptions:
- Keep our u-boot specific tests / code area.
- Change the location of checkpatch.rst (which we now import)
- Drop the "use strscpy" test as we don't have that, but do have strlcpy
  and want that used now.
- Keep debug/printf in the list for $logFunctions

And note that we now also include the spdxcheck.py tool that
checkpatch.pl supports calling out to, and include upstream's
checkpatch.rst in our develop section of the documentation.
