Re: [PATCH v3] powerpc: fix EDEADLOCK redefinition error in uapi/asm/errno.h

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello Michael,

The latest version of this patch addressed all feedback I'm aware of
when submitted last September, and I've seen no further comments from
reviewers since then.

Could you please let me know where this stands and if anything further
is needed?

Kind regards,
Tony
