# Without this option, we have the following output:
#      #333: FILE: drivers/arm/gic/arm_gic_v2v3.c:160:
# So we have 2 lines indications (333 and 160), which is confusing.
# We only care about the position in the source file.

# With this option, it becomes:
#      drivers/arm/gic/arm_gic_v2v3.c:160:

# COMPLEX_MACRO generates false positives.

# TFTF commit messages are expected to have a Gerrit Change-Id.

# We do not use this MAINTAINERS file process in TFTF.
--ignore FILE_PATH_CHANGES

# AVOID_EXTERNS reports this kind of messages:
# "externs should be avoided in .c files"
# We don't follow this convention in TFTF.
--ignore AVOID_EXTERNS

# NEW_TYPEDEFS reports this kind of messages:
# "do not add new typedefs"
# We allow adding new typedefs in TFTF.
--ignore NEW_TYPEDEFS

# Avoid "Does not appear to be a unified-diff format patch" message

# VOLATILE reports this kind of messages:
# "Use of volatile is usually wrong: see Documentation/volatile-considered-harmful.txt"
