Please add my tree to linux-next

Please add my tree to linux-next

[Cong Wang]

Hi Stephen,

As Andrew Morton suggested, please add my tree which contains all
of my patches for kmap_atomic() [1] to linux-next. Some of the
individual patches already got ACK from subsystem maintainers.
The tree is hosted on github:

     git://github.com/congwang/linux.git #kmap_atomic

I already rebased it to today's Linus tree.

Please let me know if I need to do anything else.

Thanks!

I have added this tree to linux-next today.

Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next.  As
you may know, this is not a judgment of your code.  The purpose of
linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of
conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window. 

You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have
been:
     * submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's
	Signed-off-by,
     * posted to the relevant mailing list,
     * reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree),
     * successfully unit tested, and 
     * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
to fetch).  It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary.

Legal Stuff:
By participating in linux-next, your subsystem tree contributions are
public and will be included in the linux-next trees.  You may be sent
e-mail messages indicating errors or other issues when the
patches/commits from your subsystem tree are merged and tested in
linux-next.  These messages may also be cross-posted to the linux-next
mailing list, the linux-kernel mailing list, etc.  The linux-next tree
project and IBM (my employer) make no warranties regarding the linux-next
project, the testing procedures, the results, the e-mails, etc.  If you
don't agree to these ground rules, let me know and I'll remove your tree
from participation in linux-next.

When I sent the patches out, they all have my Signed-off-by, but not in the
commit logs in my tree. Is this a problem?

Yes, see http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/27/2.

Yes.

Yes, compile-tested on x86_64 and ppc.

>       * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

Yes, for next merge window.

Yes, you must have a signed-off-by line for each person who handles the
patches (in this case just you, since you are also the author).
Linus (in theory) would not merge your tree if you asked him to if it
lacked signed-off-by lines (and I will have to drop it if they are not
added - this will mean rebasing your tree, of course).

Ok, I will re-commit those patches with my S-o-b and rebase my tree.

Thanks!

Hi, Stephen,

I just re-commit those patches into my tree with ACK's I got,
and squash a patch which fixes ARM build, so it is rebased now.
Please re-add it to linux-next.

git://github.com/congwang/linux.git #kmap_atomic

Thanks!

You don't need to ask me to re-add your tree.  As long as the URL and
branch remain the same, I will attempt to fetch it each morning.

So the new contents will appear in tomorrow's linux-next,
