> This accusation is not acceptable. It's not an accusation. It's a timeline. Your v1 predates ours by one day — not in dispute. But your v1 didn't work. You confirmed this yourself on May 29 when you wrote "v3 fixes the Bugzilla reproducer on my setup" — on *our* v3 thread, not yours. If your v1 already fixed the problem, you wouldn't have needed to test our v3 and report back. > That same locking change also closes the irq_info UAF window Your v1 commit message never mentions use-after-free. It discusses only "Unbalanced enable for IRQ." Our v1 was the first to identify and document both races. Claiming retroactively that your v1 "also" fixed UAF is revisionist. > For v3, the irq_chain_mutex rename was made in response to Jiri's review > comment Jiri made that comment on *our* v6, not yours. He reviewed our code. You took a review comment from our thread and applied it to your patch as if it were your own insight. > The __must_hold() and lockdep_assert_held() additions ... are not the > functional fix. They were added in our v5, reviewed by Greg on our v4. You copied them into your v3 and listed them as "Changes in v3" with zero attribution. Now look at the timeline: Jul 7 22:06 Our v6 — posted to the list Jul 8 11:11 Your v2 — next morning, same lock-move skeleton Jul 8 15:23 Your v3 — hours later, copies irq_chain_mutex rename, __must_hold(), lockdep_assert_held() from our v5/v7 If we hadn't replied to Jiri and sent v6, would your v2 exist the next morning? If we hadn't renamed hash_mutex in v7, would your v3 appear hours later with the same rename? The answer is obvious. > I do not agree to a Co-developed-by tag for my patch We added Co-developed-by for you on our v7. The only reason we did so is that you confirmed the fix worked on your setup — nothing more. You reported the bug, you tested the fix, we credited you. That's what open source contributors do. You, on the other hand, copied our lockdep annotations, our static analysis annotations, our mutex rename — all reviewed by Jiri and Greg on *our* patches — and passed them off as your own changelog entries. And now you're saying you won't extend the same basic courtesy in return. Copying is fine under GPLv2. Presenting it as your own work is not. You reported the bug. We fixed it. You copied our improvements. Add the tags. Jing
