Patch status?

James:

I haven't gotten any feedback about these two patch submissions, and they 
aren't in the current scsi-misc GIT:

This one looks OK ... it's such a tiny micro optimisation, though.  I
think I just lost it along the way, sorry.

This one has warning phrases like "There are two potential weaknesses in
the patch.  One is that when the bad
sense data occurs, it unconditionally calls scsi_requeue_command().  Could
this lead to an infinite loop?"  which aren't conducive to immediate application.

I'll take a look at it when I get some time.

Okay, thanks.  I just wanted to make sure they didn't vanish down a
black hole.

patch status?

[Mike Steiner]

I sent my first patch to the list a couple days ago and haven't heard
anything back yet. Did I do something wrong, or is everyone just real
busy? It wasn't a bug fix or anything important, so it's no big deal
but I'm just curious.

I noticed that your patch was only sent to the KJ mailing list and not
to any maintainer. Although many maintainers, such as Andrew Morton
and David Miller, watch this list it is important to include someone
in the TO of your email that has an interest in your patch and has a
tree to apply it to. Most of this is covered in
Documentation/SubmittingPatches.  I have looked at your patch and I am
not sure introducing such a change is really necessary, this might
also be part of why you have not heard anything.

 Sorry for the delay, I was busy with sfdisk and RHEL. I'm going to
 review it right now.

sfdisk.8

[JWP]

Karel,

Shouldn't the 'Since version 2.25' notes in sfdisk.8 be
'Since version 2.26'?  It doesn't look like these changes
are in 2.25, or am I missing something?

Ah... good catch, sure, you're right. Fixed. Thanks!
