Then Jesse (whose changes broke the code in staging) responded with a patch which I assumed that Dave would do something with.

And maybe I should have done something then. I fall back on the excuse that I have about 200 trees to merge every day and when I use to fix things for people I used to have lots of 12-16 hour days ... > And if you still think that blocking the DRM tree from -next for ten days > thus stopping all sorts of other integration work and forcing people's > hands on moving from staging and the like didn't cause the problems and > is the right policy then we'll just have to agree to differ. If you are trying to get something merged into the drm tree, you should be working with the drm tree and with the drm maintainer, not linux-next. Linux-next is here to find integration problems between trees and across architectures not to find problems with changes within one tree. And I repeat, the breakage today is nothing to do with the staging tree, it is in the drm tree and how your gma500 changes were merged there (and to be clear, there is nothing wrong with the gma500 changes per se). In the future, I will try to remember to "kill staging first", but this is the first time it has come up since staging started being built by an allmodconfig build (which it used not to be - and that change was not my choice). --=20 Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/ --Signature=_Tue__29_Nov_2011_00_53_41_+1100_bDGIl9oXFbxnwV/B Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJO05JlAAoJEECxmPOUX5FEHZ0P/2rBH6LHZRA9CpBZE5op5ywW jqQLAlI9JcwVkwChpTTfaI71fZMTFin/CBIpNY9hbjkweMskzxQMfZFs+nQp6AVW GoA6GEQYZNUelhIJuRpEqgSNoicrEuPDGMiA0h6hPj8mjZicR5VlYjh6fOHKhS3K vhl9GccBWT6s7GNupsaY0v7QYTcqlMOfoBDFgxSLHIAvQ75xmOASVSy72IwGQJKt F8LoDkPifnCsw+GENo/jJPWvHmwfB9oA3lGnfNQzzreGZsUYKGuNaNnEht3KF4Hd Rp0X8g3UMFJITdHq+jSh4382LMHq1k79ES8zh8NDTJmWD/v3Gyo81lsxc6XyGDNd /GSfDSF8LLuP/85p68lxpA1ZG6c+YZJY80AF5gI6pXRTikHB0V53ghYHv5ha3zc7 298LEXqLBqpRkGt3CUpmPiaT2R65zKByAQhj0IUzVdHWUkX4PiLRxAd3kYvaX7wY aenuI8l9FLm8Sg7x4tygnYaKINtabrG6seUzmFlzA5pYIJ/IFCyoCfHVo6r6g8JP Ha7tuMVPVYNvZrDLJjk/jy7CbEi9EL8pCRnuPy0tPrGWOsmkSYVkLA5TB4zdV7Hr e7/lL9nEqTKL9Z7xt7qs6zkYe6xpqPO/oWODCgvkqAJLJLYKqY9USFVRdnYqwbyV iDXALHH/IxpK2dVvNJ8q =hXXv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature=_Tue__29_Nov_2011_00_53_41_+1100_bDGIl9oXFbxnwV/B--
