[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] Use a Linux-style MAINTAINERS file

I make no claims that this is accurate or exhaustive but I think it's a
reasonable place to start.

As the file mentions, the purpose of this file is to give contributors
information about who they can go to with questions about a particular piece of
code or who they can ask for review.

If you sign up for a piece of code and indicate that it's Maintained or
Supported, please be prepared to be responsive to questions about that
subsystem.

I'd say this means that both are shown as maintainer. See for example the KVM situation in the Linux kernel:

I'm commenting on a patch introducing a maintainer list. There's no real
value in producing conflicts now by submitting a patch to the old
incomplete file...

I don't mind having my name on the list.

I'd like to spend more time on improving SH support in QEMU. The TCG
patches I sent about a year ago would be nice to get merged somehow,
and apart from that I'm sure there are quite a few things that need to
be fixed.

Thanks,

Why would it not be valid?  Or do you mean the W: line? yes, that needs 
to change.

You can ask Xiantao if he's okay with orphaning it.

Maybe a good idea. Since there's no working user space anymore anyways.

Great.  NB, your name is already against R2D but we don't have anyone 
for shix or target-sh4.  I think you're suggesting that you'd be happy 
to have your name against target-sh4 but please confirm.

How would you characterize the support status of SH4?

Supported - Someone is paid to work on this
Maintained - Actively fix problems and respond to patches
Odd Fixes - Occasional bug fixes
Orphan - No one is working on this

My intention with this file is not to establish ownership of code but to 
establish who are the right people to ask about areas of the code base.

So having overlapping listings is not a bad thing.  IOW, think of it not 
as, this is the person who owns this set of files but rather, this 
person is willing to be helpful with this set of files.

Perhaps the CPU names should be in alphabetical order. For
completeness, KVM CPUs should have X: target-xxx/kvm.c, though
currently TCG and KVM maintainers match.

There is also Sun4v here, though its status could be Odd Fixes. These
are actually machine classes, but currently only few machines are
implemented.

Maybe also the technical status should be indicated, something like
Unusable, Boots BIOS, Boots a kernel, Stable?

There's also Sun4c and Sun4d machine classes. There are 9 different
Sun4m machines, but do we want to list them? The same thing actually
applies to isapc machine.

How about also listing the ROMs under pc-bios? I'd claim openbios-*,
except if Alex wants openbios-ppc, that's fine too.

Yeah, I was thinking that alphabetical order across the board would make

I already have that in my copy.

I'd avoid that here.  If something is unusable for long, I think that 
automatically makes it Orphan'd, no?

The granularity is what makes sense as someone who's hacking on the 
code.  So whether you think folks would need to see the difference 
really is up to you since you're the primary person in this space.

For PC, I don't think there's really a need to call out each machine 
individually.

Yes, that's a good idea.

'Sun4u, Sun4v' and below: 'Sun4m, Sun4c, Sun4d'.

Sort of. Perhaps a Wiki page should be a better place for status type
information anyway.

I think file level is enough.

Pretty much what Natalia's OS support database tracks, no? Better not  
put it here.

I'd actually like to keep the ownership of the openbios blobs at a single person, so they keep in sync. That doesn't mean that I won't trigger an update or help out people as far as I can though :).

I would certainly take maintainership of the (simple) optionrom sources though.

Known T: tags for patch queues should be added (can be done with later
patches too).
(T: SCM tree type and location.  Type is one of: git, hg, quilt, stgit.)

Feel free to put my name on target-sh4.

At this point it's in "Odd Fixes" state, but in the future we're
likely to move to "Supported".

Basically, I'm paid to work on SH4 among other things, but lately I
have not kept up with QEMU.

Just wondering... Is there a "M86K" or is it a typo from "M68K"
(warning: I know nothing of this machine).

QEMU has a m86k_sim_stat, so it supports M86K :-)

No, of course you are correct: it should be M68K and m68k_sim_stat.
