I accepted Ira's cleanup patches, and they applied cleanly without Michael's patches. The follow-on patches to Michael's v8 patchset have not yet been posted since the last round of review and requested changes. > --> @ this point (post > 4.1-rc3) **something** has to be in your kernel.org branch for 4.2 -- > else the chain of dependencies can become really non-traceable. They will land at kernel.org when I know they won't change again (which really means when I have the final kdoc patch and Ira's dependent patches and everything there is merged properly). For now, they are present at the github repo as: mwang-v8 ira-cleanups to-be-rebased/for-4.2 (which is nothing but a merge of the two above branches) --=20 Doug Ledford GPG KeyID: 0E572FDD --=-zEBoM1Zm2whSodS8PX1u Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAABCAAGBQJVU21dAAoJELgmozMOVy/dZgcQAI1TkFGFmoRZaq76GSVh8iyb 1bP2ETeAXR2JnfFshzvhMDNy/K6miYjavUw7UhJoRvbpJLaFSgkTRjYV/cW0D+le DiLszrFB6c1lP7Zzdsv7lKTuJgYN8mDat1JXTjHGPKUvrwp5bCDmdub/bCydv5v6 3Zq8psUSJ5mJ3miI2onO1SF9BCirYlYlrD5DYBWJQtfqG0qkGEE/baKmO8wCFBPn 6XLw1OgChjqQIUuOP1xgR3BDZIJKL1UUr9nLPQeUo6UNvfhIfSs0f2w0sNnq5ejX BcG+RXGOXlWRyYoLn3O3xVeEsSDBjCIjL5ldEr/X+LuWDc/ie9wXprbZ0OZ6CTQf TmgiWYlIvGOAMxPPyyyNU81HgfI7rQKZD16p4BsldOynmsYP754fCVam9b2+umF1 QN4lYdlbOU+PYv47v2W8a9B8ZxQSaujZh9kLqm3cQEesbmDa8O5uVmFETf4jJ43/ bbWFJ9iwrQrTsVpsK0xmG9bNz1jH3GgMcH0xON+kwZYZNV07FBrX0j7eYn0mMpv2 OZ+e6PzOE51FWk2M4KC8wM2cyDuCXtBY9IAKYqu8YkBIEe9fxJnAARkMp3Vxzw2N cXD9DGMzDenjyHIXta18y/pHhJbXMUzbUMCW1O24GG5nAadlA8uRqoMmyOWx/tuL jQPKdu/TWvz6WKsg5d7E =r0F1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-zEBoM1Zm2whSodS8PX1u-- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
