batman-adv: Drop publication years from copyright info

2021-02-06T08:22:10+00:00

The batman-adv source code was using the year of publication (to net-next) as "last" year for the copyright statement. The whole source code mentioned in the MAINTAINERS "BATMAN ADVANCED" section was handled as a single entity regarding the publishing year. This avoided having outdated (in sense of year information - not copyright holder) publishing information inside several files. But since the simple "update copyright year" commit (without other changes) in the file was not well received in the upstream kernel, the option to not have a copyright year (for initial and last publication) in the files are chosen instead. More detailed information about the years can still be retrieved from the SCM system. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann Acked-by: Marek Lindner Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich

batman-adv: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions

2019-06-27T17:25:04+00:00

When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the return value. The function can work or not, but the code logic should never do something different based on this. Because we don't care if debugfs works or not, this trickles back a bit so we can clean things up by making some functions return void instead of an error value that is never going to fail.

batman-adv: Use includes instead of fwdecls

2019-05-25T10:59:53+00:00

While it can be slightly beneficial for the build performance to use forward declarations instead of includes, the handling of them together with changes in the included headers makes it unnecessary complicated and fragile. Just replace them with actual includes since some parts (hwmon, ..) of the kernel even request avoidance of forward declarations and net/ is mostly not using them in *.c file.

batman-adv: Add SPDX license identifier above copyright header

2017-12-15T16:22:45+00:00

The "Linux kernel licensing rules" require that each file has a SPDX license identifier as first line (and sometimes as second line). The FSFE REUSE practices [1] would also require the same tags but have no restrictions on the placement in the source file. Using the "Linux kernel licensing rules" is therefore also fulfilling the FSFE REUSE practices requirements at the same time.
