Hi Zhang, Sorry for the delay in looking at it. One thing which is missing from your patch is a signed-off-by header. From section 12 of the Documentation/SubmittingPatches file in the Linux source tree: >The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the >patch, which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right to >pass it on as a open-source patch. The rules are pretty simple: if you >can certify the below: > > Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1 > > By making a contribution to this project, I certify that: > > (a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I > have the right to submit it under the open source license > indicated in the file; or > > (b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best > of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source > license and I have the right under that license to submit that > work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part > by me, under the same open source license (unless I am > permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated > in the file; or > > (c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other > person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified > it. > > (d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution > are public and that a record of the contribution (including all > personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is > maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with > this project or the open source license(s) involved. > >then you just add a line saying > > Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > >using your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.) If you could send me an acknowledgement that it would be OK to add a Signed-off-by: Zhang Huan <zhhuan@xxxxxxxxx> line to your patch, it would be much appreciated. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
