Subject: [GIT PULL] firewire updates for 6.4-rc1
Date: Thu, 27 Apr 2023 12:49:34 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230427034934.GA556709@workstation> (raw)
Hi Linus,
Nice to meet you. I'm a new maintainer of FireWire subsystem, taking over
from Stefan Richter. Please pull FireWire updates for 6.4-rc1.
The following changes since commit 457391b0380335d5e9a5babdec90ac53928b23b4:
Linux 6.3 (2023-04-23 12:02:52 -0700)

firewire updates for 6.4-rc1
The pull request includes a few changes, Its main purpose is to prepare
for my future work by taking over maintainership from Stefan Richter. I
have plans to work on several items; e.g. packet processing in workqueue
context instead of tasklet.
As you may be aware, the IEEE 1394 technology is outdated. However, we
still have users. It is better to ensure a smooth transition for the users
to shift to other categories of devices. The first commit includes my
schedule to maintain the subsystem for the next six years. I would
appreciate your assistance throughout this period.
