Subject: [virtio] allocating device IDs without a vote
Date: Fri, 30 Oct 2020 06:15:49 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201030061222-mutt-send-email-mst@kernel.org> (raw)
At the Virtio BoF at the virtual KVM forum, 2020, a recurring theme was
the difficulty contributors face in obtaining device IDs for new
devices. As allocating a new ID is a technicality, and can not break
existing devices, it does not sound too bad to skip a voting step in
that process.
I'd like to hear TC's take on such an idea.
This would be similar to the existing standing rule:
Minor cleanups, including editorial formatting changes, spelling
and typo fixes can be committed directly into git for approval as part
of the next specification approval ballot.
