See, this is exactly what I've been talking about. Reviewing or raising points is almost useless. Gees, why did I start this again? Why the hell aren't my points clear yet after so many exchanges on the exact same frigging subject? Stop repeting yourself and try to understand the review points for once. * Separate fixes from additions. Transform existing code so that the visible behavior doesn't change but the required fix can be implemented on top. Explicitly note what's going on in the commit messages. * Fix the frigging CVE bug that you've been waving around and do *just* that. * Add the frigging "count me out" feature that you want for your use case. It isn't controversial and is what you need and the maintainer can apply to the point where [s]he thinks acceptable. * If for whatever reason you have to add more command codes to the exception table, do them with explicit justifications. How the hell "the vast majority of the commands are added because Linux itself is using them" a proper justification? How are they used for what reason and why is adding them beneficial? How many times have I asked you to give at least some useful use cases? And WTF is "vast majority", what about others then? Why do you need this at all if you have the "count me out" knob in the first place? You first built that command list by scanning the spec and just adding the commands that seemed "right" to you. I have near-zero confidence in your perception of the relationship between the specs and actual world. So, stop quoting and repeating yourself. You're overdoing yourself on that department already. Try to listen and understand for a change. -- tejun -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
