Re: [PATCH v3 3/3] acpi/pci_root: negotiate CXL _OSC

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

 



Don't just make up new prefixes for the subject line.  Previous ones
look like this:

  PCI/ACPI: Fix acpi_pci_osc_control_set() kernel-doc comment
  ACPI: Use acpi_fetch_acpi_dev() instead of acpi_bus_get_device()
  PCI/ACPI: Check for _OSC support in acpi_pci_osc_control_set()
  PCI/ACPI: Move _OSC query checks to separate function
  PCI/ACPI: Move supported and control calculations to separate functions
  PCI/ACPI: Remove OSC_PCI_SUPPORT_MASKS and OSC_PCI_CONTROL_MASKS
  ACPI: pci_root: Unify the message printing
  PCI/ACPI: Clarify message about _OSC failure
  PCI/ACPI: Remove unnecessary osc_lock
  PCI/ACPI: Make acpi_pci_osc_control_set() static
  PCI/ACPI: Replace open coded variant of resource_union()

So I think "PCI/ACPI: " would be a good choice.  Also capitalize the
next word as all the above do.

"CL" looks like a typo for "CXL"?

What was reported by the robot?  If it just complained about something
in v1 or v2, I think there's no point in mentioning this here.  It's
the same as ordinary review comments (like these I'm composing), and
they don't need to be acknowledged.  I think "Reported-by" is great
when giving credit for bug fixes, but that's not what's happening
here.
