 branch master

I have added this from today with you and utrace-devel as the contacts.
I have cc'd the wider community on this email so that people are aware
that this has been included.

 This repo contains frequent merges from Linus' tree.  If you'd prefer
 a cleaner rebase-based branch to pull from, we can make one of those too.

For now it is OK, but you might like to ask Linus if he would like it
cleaned up before submission since it seems to have history right back to
2.6.29 and (as you say) lots of merges with his tree.

You should also add a commit with an entry in MAINTAINERS.

[Standard boilerplate]

Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next.  As
you may know, this is not a judgment of your code.  The purpose of
linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of
conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window. 

You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have
been:
 * submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's
Signed-off-by,
 * posted to the relevant mailing list,
 * reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree),
 * successfully unit tested, and 
 * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
to fetch).  It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary.

Legal Stuff:
By participating in linux-next, your subsystem tree contributions are
public and will be included in the linux-next trees.  You may be sent
e-mail messages indicating errors or other issues when the
patches/commits from your subsystem tree are merged and tested in
linux-next.  These messages may also be cross-posted to the linux-next
mailing list, the linux-kernel mailing list, etc.  The linux-next tree
project and IBM (my employer) make no warranties regarding the linux-next
project, the testing procedures, the results, the e-mails, etc.  If you
don't agree to these ground rules, let me know and I'll remove your tree
from participation in linux-next.

linux-next: manual merge of the utrace tree with the fsnotify tree

2010-01-19 Thread Stephen Rothwell
Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the utrace tree got a conflict in
kernel/Makefile between commit 9878914352df8ccfbad1307d51ca05706d50cae4
(Audit: split audit watch Kconfig) from the fsnotify tree and commit
f357a74067bc548772166a4817d5f2c32005a449 (utrace core) from the utrace
tree.

Just context changes.  I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as
necessary.

Hi Frank,

 Including experimental code that is RFC and which is not certain to go 
 upstream is certainly not the purpose of linux-next though.

Ingo is correct in what he says here.  See the boilerplate:

 * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
to fetch).

I will remove this tree from linux-next tomorrow and wait until it is
more ready for mainline inclusion.

 What are your thoughts of getting utrace git tree into linux-next?
 That way, utrace will have more extensive visibility and testing.

(Just a reminder)

Prerequisites:
posted on appropriate list(s)
reviewed
unit tested
expected to go into 2.6.29 (at this point)

Nothing new will be added until after 2.6.28-rc1.
