Placing patch versioning at the email's detailed explanation is actually a violation of the Kernel coding style. See: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html#the-canonical-patch-format "The explanation body will be committed to the permanent source changelog, so should make sense to a competent reader who has long since forgotten the immediate details of the discussion that might have led to this patch." Such versions should either go at the cover letter - which is the usual convention on big series, or after "---", as explained at the same document: "The --- marker line serves the essential purpose of marking for patch handling tools where the changelog message ends. ... Other comments relevant only to the moment or the maintainer, not suitable for the permanent changelog, should also go here. A good example of such comments might be patch changelogs which describe what has changed between the v1 and v2 version of the patch." > > that helps reviewers to know if their change requested was > addressed or not. True. Next time, I'll add a version at the cover letter. > > but anyways: > > Reviewed-by: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@xxxxxxxxx> Thank you! Mauro
