Hi everyone! As you all are aware, we're pushing to increase the stability of gem5. However, at the same time, we're seeing a significant increase in the rate of gem5 changes. Between gem5-20.0 and gem5-20.1 we had over 650 commits! And, that doesn't count the many changes on gerrit that never got reviewed :(.
We need help reviewing! One of the steps we're taking to help with this is to assign specific maintainers to review every patch (automatically). There is a change on gerrit to do this: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/34737 Please let us know if there are any comments. In that commit is a new file which specifies the maintainers in a machine-readable format. Now, for the ask: We're looking for volunteers for all of the components that are missing maintainers! Being a maintainer comes with the responsibility of reviewing patches in a timely fashion, but it also means that you can influence the changes in gem5! See https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/34737/17/util/gerrit_bot/MAINTAINERS.json Specifically, if you would like to become the maintainer for any of the following sub-components, simply reply to this email! Additionally, if you have suggestions for other ways to break down these components, feel free to comment on the changeset linked above. - arch-mips - arch-power - base - cpu - cpu-minor - cpu-o3 - cpu-simple - dev - ext - misc - stats - system Have a great weekend! Cheers, Jason
