Can I suppress an entire file

Q: I have an include file that has issues that I can't fix (e.g. auto generated file). How can I suppress the entire file from the results?

Short answer: You can't.
Long Answer:

You can, but it requires a bit of extra work.
The following options exist:

1. write a wrapper script that uses oelint-adv in libmode

import sys
from oelint_adv.core import create_lib_arguments, run

suppress_files = [
    'foo.inc'
]

results = run(create_lib_arguments(sys.argv))
issues = [x[1] for x in results]
filtered = [x for x in issues if not any(y in x for y in suppress_files)]

print('\n'.join(filtered))
sys.exit(len(results) if results else 0)

2. use grep -v inverted regex search
