That commit message is very explicit in this regard. When reviewing a patch, it helps if that kind of information is included in the commit message (and it also helps review old patches in the future, not just when applying it). It's covered in ./CONTRIBUTING: - Describe how you obtained the information in your patch. For example, was it: - by reading (or writing) the relevant kernel or (g)libc source code? Please provide a pointer to the following code. - from a commit message in the kernel or (g)libc source code repository? Please provide a commit ID. - by writing a test program? Send it with the patch, but please make sure it's as simple as possible, and provide instructions on how to use it and/or a demo run. - from a standards document? Please name the standard, and quote the relevant text. - from other documentation? Please provide a pointer to that documentation. - from a mailing list or online forum? Please provide a URL if possible. Cheers, Alex -- <https://www.alejandro-colomar.es/>
