From cc0e5f1ce0a8017c68983eb6b41a1dbd0d24aa98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Walmsley Date: Thu, 11 Jul 2019 20:52:33 -0700 Subject: scripts/spelling.txt: drop "sepc" from the misspelling list The RISC-V architecture has a register named the "Supervisor Exception Program Counter", or "sepc". This abbreviation triggers checkpatch.pl's misspelling detector, resulting in noise in the checkpatch output. The risk that this noise could cause more useful warnings to be missed seems to outweigh the harm of an occasional misspelling of "spec". Thus drop the "sepc" entry from the misspelling list. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix existing "sepc" instances, per Joe] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190518210037.13674-1-paul.walmsley@sifive.com Signed-off-by: Paul Walmsley Cc: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- scripts/spelling.txt | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'scripts') diff --git a/scripts/spelling.txt b/scripts/spelling.txt index 86b87332b9e5..5ae83ce31902 100644 --- a/scripts/spelling.txt +++ b/scripts/spelling.txt @@ -1145,7 +1145,6 @@ senarios||scenarios sentivite||sensitive separatly||separately sepcify||specify -sepc||spec seperated||separated seperately||separately seperate||separate -- cgit v1.2.3
