Yes, I'm well aware that the author of the ARM patches are Yalin Wang. > https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/27/69 > > > How do I get to know when all > > the dependencies are met? > > No idea. > > > Who is tracking the dependencies? > > Not me. Right, what that means is that no one is doing that. What you've also said in this thread now is that the ARM patches should not be applied until all the other users are converted. As those patches are going via other trees, that means the ARM patches can only be applied _after_ the next merge window _if_ all maintainers pick up the previous set. As I'm not tracking the status of what other maintainers do, I'm simply going to avoid applying these patches until after the next merge window and hope that the other maintainers pick the dependent patches up and get them in during the next merge window. If not, I guess we'll see compile breakage. -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.5Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
