PSA: drm-misc-next-fixes is open

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

 



Hi,

-rc6 has been tagged for a few days. This means that drm-misc-next-fixes is now open for bug fixes, as drm-next is in feature freeze until the next -rc1 comes out.

Some rules of thumb on where to land your patch:

* if your patch fixes a bug in upstream, please put it into drm-misc-fixes,

* if your patch fixes a bug in drm-next, please put it into drm-misc-next-fixes,

* anything else, especially new features, should go into drm-misc-next.

The flow chart is at [1].

The transition from/to drm-misc-fixes-next sometimes results in patches that are applied to the wrong tree and get stuck there for a long time. If you have fixes in drm-misc-next that must go into drm-next soon, please cherry-pick them into drm-misc-next-fixes. We have

     dim cherry-pick

to help you with that.

Best regards
Thomas
