2014-10-14checkpatch: look for common misspellingsKees Cook
Check for misspellings, based on Debian's lintian list. Several false positives were removed, and several additional words added that were common in the kernel: backword backwords invalide valide recieves singed unsinged While going back and fixing existing spelling mistakes isn't a high priority, it'd be nice to try to catch them before they hit the tree. In the 13830 commits between 3.15 and 3.16, the script would have noticed 560 spelling mistakes. The top 25 are shown here: $ git log --pretty=oneline v3.15..v3.16 | wc -l 13830 $ git log --format='%H' v3.15..v3.16 | \ while read commit ; do \ echo "commit $commit" ; \ git log --format=email --stat -p -1 $commit | \ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --types=typo_spelling --no-summary - ; \ done | tee spell_v3.15..v3.16.txt | grep "may be misspelled" | \ awk '{print $2}' | tr A-Z a-z | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn 21 'seperate' 17 'endianess' 15 'sucess' 13 'noticable' 11 'occured' 11 'accomodate' 10 'interrup' 9 'prefered' 8 'unecessary' 8 'explicitely' 7 'supress' 7 'overriden' 7 'immediatly' 7 'funtion' 7 'defult' 7 'childs' 6 'succesful' 6 'splitted' 6 'specifc' 6 'reseting' 6 'recieve' 6 'changable' 5 'tmis' 5 'singed' 5 'preceeding' Thanks to Joe Perches for rewrites, suggestions, additional misspelling entries, and testing.
