I’d really need the bug fix applied on api-next ASAP. It’s more urgent than a 
guide update. Buggy code slows down actual work. Buggy document is just 
annoying but does not prevent working efficiently.

Anyway, this used to be our policy: bug fixes (to master) are merged to 
api-next soon after master. What is the rationale *not* to merge bug fixes ASAP?

Can we merge [1] that was ready and reviewed last week with no objections

Maxim Petri - can you review that patch and if there are changes needed I can 
update.

So, critical bug fixes from master side are not visible to api-next until a

Exactly. api-next was broken with TM. Until issue if fixed and branch operates 
as usual, there is no pull of critical bug and etc.
https://ci.linaro.org/view/odp-ci/job/odp-api-check

Now some people still see build fails with gcc4.9, but I can not reproduce it 
and CI also passes. So only now I can pull changes from master.

Maxim.

Most bug fixes should apply directly to api-next as well, since those are 
implementation/test code/build system fixes (not api changing fixes). Some 
fixes may touch the same lines that api-next have changed due to an api change 
(and would need more thinking), but generally that should not be the case.

For example, without these fixes it’s impossible to write implementation (on 
api-next side) that is compatible to the API spec AND passes validation tests, 
since validation tests do not follow the spec. So, I could not send patches for 
api-next that follow the spec for one month (since ‘make check’ fails),  OR I 
would need to include these same (or similar bug fix) patches in the front of 
my patch set.

The process states that API-NEXT takes master on master release points only.

    If you can merge that master and api-next I can. But for now after
    time things 2 branches out of sync in many files.
