I don't go to IETF meetings, ever, yet I am rather sure that nobody uses that to question my ability to be the networking maintainer. I've gone several years at times without meeting other networking developers as well, and that also I am pretty sure did not harm my stature as the networking maintainer. So I absolutely disagree that these two acts are requirements for someone whose job is to steadily and reasonably review and apply patches for a subsystem. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

You need to act differently. Unfortunately, and no direct offense intend to you personally Roland, but I agree with Or here. If a person really cares about a subsystem they are marked at the maintainer for, they usually _make_ the time necessary to apply patches and attend to maintainership in a reasonable manner. If this "once every merge window" behavior was limited to one release cycle, I'd give the benefit of the doubt, but this has been going on for a very long time. You cannot on the one hand say "I care about this subsystem and the long term maintainership and ABI stability of it" yet on the other hand not be willing to put forth even the _MOST MINIMAL_ amount of effort and time required to steadily review and apply patches over a period of several years. It doesn't take a lot of time to do this work, especially if you use the correct tools. I can review and apply 100 patches a day, even when I'm on vacation. I'm an extreme example, but what you're doing right now Roland is not acceptable and is not in agreement with your claims about how much you care about this subsystem. If you processed the incoming patch queue even _once_ a week, we wouldn't even be having this conversation. But you haven't even been doing that. I get sick to my stomache when a patch gets to 3 days in my patch queue, that's already too long. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Roland, I have to genuinely agree with Or, that your handling of patch integration is sub-par and really painful for anyone actually trying to get real work done here. If you simply don't have the time to devote to constantly reviewing patches as they come in, and doing so in a timely manner, please let someone who is actually interested and has the time to take over. Only integrating peoples work right before the merge window, and then disappearing for a long time really isn't acceptable.

Someone mentioned this, and I did not see any response. Please show how a legitimate real bonding configuration can be created, reproduce a stray memory access, and therefore potentially cause a crash.

We've told you that we don't care what format your internal whatever uses for these macros. We have standards, tastes, and desires and reasons for naming macros in a certain way in upstream kernel code. I consider it flat out unacceptable to use macros with one letter prefixes like "S_". You simply should not do this. Why? Because you are polluting the global name space, that's why. You should only define macros with very-likely-to-be-unique prefixes otherwise you and some arch/* header file are going to define the same thing. This is not just theory, it has happened in the past. I'm not applying this series, fixup your macros properly. And to repeat, complaints about how your internal tools generate things will fall on deaf ears.

You are changing from spin_{un,}lock_irq() to spin_{un,}lock_irq{save,restore}() here in enable_txq_db() but not in disable_txq_db(). But both of those functions are invoked, via one level of indirection, from the same exact function: process_db_drop() Futhermore, this function process_db_drop() runs via a workqueue, and therefore always runs with interrupts enabled. So you shouldn't need to use the save/restore spinlock variants at all.

The compiler complains loudly about this, therefore nobody even looked at the build logs from these changes before submitting them to me. That translates to "don't care", and if the people submitting this code don't care why should I? Sorry, not impressed. I'm seriously going to take my time reviewing any future submissions of these changes, because it's obvious that even the people writing and submitting this code DO NOT CARE. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
