You might want to move that to korg instead, because many people don't like to pull from github. > > Here is the exact commit: > > > > https://github.com/0day-ci/linux/commits/Ingo-Molnar/string-Improve-the-generic-strlcpy-implementation > > Sorry that's already the rebased commit..

So as long as you have the tested sha1 mentioned in the bug report, and that sha1 can be pulled from somewhere on korg, I'm a happy camper: in this particular case it would have told me whether your testing tree had upstream fix 990486c8af or not. Rebasing and applying email patches for testing purposes is otherwise perfectly OK, as long as the precise Git tree used for testing can be fetched. Thanks, Ingo
