I pulled in a number of patches related to hfi1, but I've already sent the pull request to Linus and they made it as of 4.1-rc2. So, just start from there and you will have all the patches I've taken. -- Doug Ledford GPG KeyID: 0E572FDD signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

But, that's already not happening, as is obvious by my inbox. So, how about you forward on what you have so far to me, and I'll keep these. Otherwise you will end up with nasty merge issues very quickly as people will continue to send stuff to me. thanks, greg k-h -- 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

My understanding was that I would handle everything in the staging/rdma area.

Ok, but Doug better start syncing up with me soon, as we are about to start to get a ton of staging patches due to the Outreachy application process, and we will start to get merge errors very quickly. Doug, what's the plan for this? Can you just forward me patches every so often to sync up? Or I can take anything that is cc: me and/or the driverdevel mailing list. thanks, greg k-h -- 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

My recollection was that Doug was going to handle the staging/rdma sub-tree because of the large churn he expected between the rdma subsystem and those drivers. Therefore, I have been submitting my patches against staging/rdma/hfi directly to Doug and Linux-rdma.
