From 6c6c1fc09de35f409f6971cb9e881103afe5dbe0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Johnson Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2025 12:49:02 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] modpost: require a MODULE_DESCRIPTION() Since commit 1fffe7a34c89 ("script: modpost: emit a warning when the description is missing"), a module without a MODULE_DESCRIPTION() has resulted in a warning with make W=1. Since that time, all known instances of this issue have been fixed. Therefore, now make it an error if a MODULE_DESCRIPTION() is not present.
