Thanks! Hi Wolfram. As far as I understand, all this seems correct to me. You want to maintain the core files in drivers/i2c/ but not any files in any of algos/, busses/, or muxes/. You might also want to specify which of the include/linux/i2c-*.h files you actually want to oversee as well. It seems some are driver specific. But the git entry for the drivers seems maybe a bit of an issue. Are you intending to somehow pick up patches approved by the i2c community? If not, no worries I guess, someone might come along to provide help. cheers, Joe > MAINTAINERS | 14 +++++++++++--- > 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/MAINTAINERS b/MAINTAINERS > index 6d296bdce328..2f7ccdcf76f7 100644 > --- a/MAINTAINERS > +++ b/MAINTAINERS > @@ -6580,15 +6580,23 @@ W: https://i2c.wiki.kernel.org/ > Q: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-i2c/list/ > T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wsa/linux.git > S: Maintained > -F: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/ > +F: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c.txt > F: Documentation/i2c/ > -F: drivers/i2c/ > -F: drivers/i2c/*/ > +F: drivers/i2c/* > F: include/linux/i2c.h > F: include/linux/i2c-*.h > F: include/uapi/linux/i2c.h > F: include/uapi/linux/i2c-*.h > > +I2C SUBSYSTEM DRIVERS > +L: linux-i2c@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > +W: https://i2c.wiki.kernel.org/ > +Q: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-i2c/list/ > +T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wsa/linux.git > +S: Odd Fixes > +F: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/ > +F: drivers/i2c/*/ > + > I2C-TAOS-EVM DRIVER > M: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@xxxxxxxx> > L: linux-i2c@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
