Subject: [GIT PULL] RAS updates for 5.18
Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2022 18:29:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <YjtZAvQnshp1pZIh@zn.tnic> (raw)

Hi Linus,

please pull the RAS side of things for 5.18.

But before you do, a git question if I may:

So the branch I'm sending you is tip/ras/core and I fast-forwarded it to
v5.17-rc4 before adding new stuff ontop.

However, I needed to have prerequisite work from another tip branch:
tip/locking/core which was fast-forwarded to v5.17-rc1 before it got
that prerequisite work added ontop.

So I merged tip/locking/core into tip/ras/core - see merge commit below
- and added the RAS stuff ontop.

However, when creating the diffstat for the pull request, it would
add additional files to it from tip/locking/core even if all the
tip/locking/core changes are already in your master branch:

$ git log master..tip/locking/core
$

After poking at it a bit more, I found a hint as to what it might be
complaining about:

$ git diff --stat master...ras_core_for_v5.18_rc1
warning: master...ras_core_for_v5.18_rc1: multiple merge bases, using 754e0b0e35608ed5206d6a67a791563c631cec07

and:

$ git merge-base -a master ras_core_for_v5.18_rc1
754e0b0e35608ed5206d6a67a791563c631cec07 - that's rc4
b008893b08dcc8c30d756db05c229a1491bcb992 - that's the top-commit of tip/locking/core at the time the merge commit was created.

So it looks like the diffstat for the pull request is created by using
the -rc4 as the merge base:

$ git diff --stat v5.17-rc4..ras_core_for_v5.18_rc1
...

while the correct diffstat should be from the merge-commit onwards:

$ git diff --stat c0f6799de2a0..ras_core_for_v5.18_rc1
...

So, long story short, what am I doing wrong?

Thx a lot!
