From: Pratyush Mallick <[email protected]> The current selftests/mm/.gitignore hardcodes each generated test binary by name, which requires manual updates every time a new test is added.
This series switches to a pattern-matching approach (similar to KVM selftests), ignoring everything by default and allowing specific source extensions. To accommodate this without tracking generated headers, local_config.h is renamed to local_config.h_gen. Changelog since v2: - Split the changes into two separate patches (header rename and .gitignore update) - Added Suggested-by for David Hildenbrand for the header rename approach. - Dropped David's and Yosry's Reviewed-by tags. - Kept Lorenzo Stoakes's Reviewed-by and added Mike Rapoport's Acked-by. Changelog since v1 (RFC): - Renamed local_config.h to local_config.h_gen to avoid conflict with !*.h. - Updated Makefile, check_config.sh, and affected .c files for the rename. - Removed *.mod.c as it was unnecessary.
