Script to integrate MAINTAINERS P: and M: lines

[Joe Perches]

Here's a script to convert the MAINTAINERS file
to a single-line format.

from:
	P:	name
	M:	address
to
	M:	name <address>

Please run the script and apply the result when convenient.

Linus - assuming this script works as advertised I would be glad to see it run.
It is irritating when copying from MAINTAINERS that it is a
three step process to copy a single mail address for a Cc: line.

There are a dozen or so patches to scripts/get_maintainer.pl
and MAINTAINERS in Andrew's MM tree that ideally would be
applied before the script was run.

[PATCH 08/18] scripts/get_maintainer.pl - Don't print maintainers when not requested

Re: [PATCH 16/18] MAINTAINERS - Remove L: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org from all but "THE REST"

[Grant Likely]

On Sat, May 23, 2009 at 8:37 PM, Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> wrote:

Really?  That makes the assumption that lack of an "L:" tag is
equivalent to an "L:linux-kernel" tag, which IMNSHO I don't believe is
true.

Not having an L: tag could mean any of:
- Use linux-kernel
- Use the related subsystem mailing list (ie usb)
- The maintainer just never bothered to add it; make your best guess

whereas an explicit L: tag means "I really mean that you should use
linux-kernel to discuss this driver".  That was certainly my thinking
on the SystemAce driver (which appears in the list below).  I don't
think it is appropriate (or even necessary) to strip them out.

Unless you have a reason NOT to do so, CC linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org.

Is that actually true in practice?  At least on linuxppc-dev, very few
patches are cc'd to lkml.  I don't remember ever being prompted to cc
lkml on all patches, and I haven't been prompting others to do so.

Hi Grant.

I think cc:ing lkml should be the default for patches.

Having a few selected sections have lkml entries
might make people think that a section that doesn't
specifically mention lkml therefore wouldn't need to
a cc: to lkml.

Perhaps MAINTAINERS should mention that its preface
as well as having it in Documentation/SubmittingPatches?

Do subsystem maintainers think so?  Unless they do (and tell others
so), I don't think it will actually happen.  Until that point, I don't
think the L:linux-kernel lines should be removed.

Well, if scripts/get_maintainers.pl becomes more widely used,
cc'ing lkml will become more automatic.

Anyway, removing lkml from all sections might stop
a MAINTAINERS reader from thinking lkml should not
be cc'd when not mentioned.

Ultimately it should come to common sense. If you are only touching
subsystem or architecture-specific code and it's unlikely anyone on l-k
is going to care, or have much to add to it, then there really isn't a
lot of point in mindlessly Cc-ing the list on every change.

The signal to noise ratio on l-k is already limping along without
encouraging people to submit every random patch for review. If you are
told to resubmit and add the list and random people to the Cc, or if you
are at all in doubt over a patch submission, then naturally cc'ing l-k is
the way to go.

In practice we are well beyond the stage of monitoring every single
patch that is going in anyways, these days you are more likely to find an
obscure change in git than you are on the list. If a process problem
arises, it is usually quite easily corrected.

People might disagree, but at least based on the architecture lists, it
is more the exception than the norm that l-k is CCed, and it's only the
odd times when a discussion carries over and someone has to either
summarize or point at archives.

Conversely, if you need to read SubmittingPatches to figure out how to
submit a patch, yes, you are probably better off CCing l-k just to be on
the safe side. As a blanket policy though it makes no sense.

And if you already know who or to what list you
want to submit a patch to, the MAINTAINERS entry
doesn't much matter.

That's not true. If I have to hack something up in some random subsystem
then I will often have to hunt for both the list address (if there is one
at all!), as well as the folks looking after that code. Yes, I could
blindly send it to a given list, but it's much more likely to fall
through than sending it directly to the people who care.

MAINTAINERS is very useful for randomly looking up people and email
addresses, especially if they aren't people you routinely interact with.
It's also much faster to look through than remembering the proper
incantation for a specific perl script ;-)

Knowing where to look and knowing who to talk to are two different
things. Most subsystem maintainers only interact with a small group of
other subsystem maintainers on any sort of regular basis, while things
like build errors in -next often send you scurrying one way or the other.

Most subsystem maintainers shed patches like a hobo does dandruff.  If
it is cc'ed to lkml then there is a decent chance that I will see it
and will un-lose it.

This happens probably 100 or more times per kernel release.

Clearly all of the subsystems that matter are using patchwork ;-)

I regularly have to remind people to CC lkml as well as the architecture
list for the platform they're making changes to kernel wide subsystems
(partcularly the regulator framework).

Hmmm...  Given that you are removing LKML from RCU and rcutorture,
could you please add me?  If someone misses "THE REST", I very likely
won't see their bug/issue/question.
