I see 3 in the gcc.gnu.org email archive, and I saw 3 on the NNTP feed from gmane, but it seems only one of them ended up in my gmail inbox. The other two appear to have problems with mail headers. Maybe they resent because of bounces. Alibaba is fairly new to gcc development, so I'd just chalk this up as newbies trying to get the procedure right with tools that they aren't familiar with. Few people still use email the same way that we do for patches. I am curious about the names though. The first one was from "shaj <shajun...@alibaba-inc.com>" and the last two are from "cooper.joshua <cooper.jos...@linux.alibaba.com>". If more than one person contributed to the patch then it should include all names in the changelog entry for correct attribution. Jim
