We usually take these through arm-soc. > We should also probably extend the MAINTAINERS entry, shouldn't we? > A lot of the arm64 changes get sent to arm-soc from random developers that are not in the MAINTAINERS file at the moment, and I'd like to reduce that, so please pick up whatever arm64 sunxi changes you see that look ok and send a separate pull request as you do for arm32. Sending patches separately is fine too, but I'd like to see them come from you to a...@kernel.org so I don't need to guess whether we should pick them up or not. This time around, we have two arm64 branches, one for boot/dts and one combined for Kconfig and defconfig (MAINTAINERS can also go in there). We are still experimenting with that model though, and it may change in the future. Arnd -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "linux-sunxi" group.
