Newer versions of flake8 (3.5.0, mccabe: 0.6.1, pycodestyle: 2.3.1, pyflakes: 1.6.0) add an error code for 'bare exception'. The OvS codebase does use bare exceptions in places, especially when the specific exception isn't important (ie: the program will be terminating, so the specific exception isn't important). Without this change, the following error messages appear: utilities/checkpatch.py:476:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/checkpatch.py:514:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/ovs-dev.py:189:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/ovs-dev.py:192:9: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/ovs-dev.py:197:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:360:13: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:434:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:470:13: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:609:9: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:679:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:712:13: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:744:9: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:751:9: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:825:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:1006:13: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:1041:13: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:1079:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:1202:5: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:1247:9: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:1257:13: E722 do not use bare except' utilities/bugtool/ovs-bugtool.in:1328:9: E722 do not use bare except' tests/test-daemon.py:60:5: E722 do not use bare except' tests/test-l7.py:23:1: E722 do not use bare except' tests/test-unixctl.py:96:5: E722 do not use bare except' xenserver/usr_share_openvswitch_scripts_ovs-xapi-sync:404:5: E722 do not use bare except' python/ovs/fcntl_win.py:39:9: E722 do not use bare except' python/ovs/poller.py:38:1: E722 do not use bare except' python/ovs/socket_util.py:151:13: E722 do not use bare except' python/ovs/stream.py:169:17: E722 do not use bare except' python/ovs/stream.py:578:17: E722 do not use bare except' python/ovs/timeval.py:51:1: E722 do not use bare except' python/ovstest/util.py:52:5: E722 do not use bare except' vtep/ovs-vtep:767:5: E722 do not use bare except' Signed-off-by: Aaron Conole <aconole@redhat.com> --- v1->v2: Include more information about the change.
