Just adding one data point here, without judging on the merits of this
proposal. I've been requested previously by customers to increase their
visibility in the kernel development statistics, and the way we found to
do so was to sign-off patches with
Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart+customer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
(where "customer" is to be replaced with the customer name).
I quite like Sponsored-by: but yet another approach could be the
same as that used by those of us whole use personal email addresses
while being employed by someone. So my SoB is:
Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
but you might have (eg)
Laurent Pinchard (Coca-Cola) <laurent.pinchart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
and then when working for another sponsor:
Laurent Pinchard (Ford) <laurent.pinchart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Thanks a lot for pointing me the existing ways to give credits I was not
aware. I will pick one of the 2 and use it.
Both can be used by analysis tools.
Thanks again for taking care.
Best regards
