Hi Joe,


Does it make sense to check the following
by checkpatch.pl ?


[1] blank line at end of file

[2] no new line at end of file



When I apply a patch,
I sometimes see the following warning from 'git am'.


Applying: kunit: test: add string_stream a std::stream like string builder
.git/rebase-apply/patch:223: new blank line at EOF.
+


I just thought it could be checked
before the patch submission.

I'm pretty sure checkpatch does one this already.
(around line 3175)

# check for adding lines without a newline.
		if ($line =~ /^\+/ && defined $lines[$linenr] && $lines[$linenr] =~ /^\\ No newline at end of file/) {
 			WARN("MISSING_EOF_NEWLINE",
 			     "adding a line without newline at end of file\n" . $herecurr);
 		}

I did not know this. Thanks.

Looks like the report depends on the file type.

scripts/checkpatch.pl  -f  arch/sparc/lib/NG4clear_page.S
scripts/checkpatch.pl  -f  tools/power/cpupower/bench/cpufreq-bench_plot.sh

reported it, but

scripts/checkpatch.pl  -f  drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cxd2880/Kconfig
scripts/checkpatch.pl  -f  drivers/parport/Makefile

did not.

Worked for me.
(but Makefile, Kconfig were not checked though)


Could you commit it ?

Yes, this check is after a test for filename extension.

Currently the only file types it reports as missing an EOF
newline are done on files with the following extensions:

	.h
	.c
	.s
	.S
	.sh
	.dtsi
	.dts

So the existing test is not done on many file types.
The same file types are used for the proposed patch.

It's possible to have the existing missing newline at EOF
test and the proposed test for a blank line at EOF to be
done on all file types.

Is this reasonable or could it cause some other issue
for any other file types?  Should _any_ file extension
be excluded?

I believe not, but perhaps it's best to ask.

I do not know cases where missing newline at EOF
or blank line at EOF is useful.

(Even if there are some, checkpatch.pl is allowed
to report false positives in my opinion.)


So, I think these two checks can be done for
all file types.


Currently, the following is the list of
missing newline at EOF.

checkpatch.pl misses to report most of them.
(the majority of the warning source is *.json)

Perhaps the json files should be ignored as more than
half of the .json files in the tree are missing the
newline at EOF.

And at least some of those json files use spaces for
indentation and not tabs.

I guess they are accident.

I do not think missing newline in *.json
is syntactically significant.


If we are unsure, it is better to ask the maintainers.

This is different stuff.

Indentation and newline at EOF are not linked.
