Subject: checkpatches: ability to pass custom options
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4bccbe5921d84222e55fbd5dc3eec999fb24497c;p=dpdk.git

checkpatches: ability to pass custom options

Add the ability to pass custom options to checkpatch script. An example
of use is to change the output format so it can run in emacs compilation
mode:

  DPDK_CHECKPATCH_PATH=/path/to/linux/scripts/checkpatch.pl \
    DPDK_CHECKPATCH_OPTIONS='--emacs --showfile --no-color' \
    /path/to/dpdk.org/devtools/checkpatches.sh
