Re: [PATCH] mm: move the check of READ_IMPLIES_EXEC out of do_mmap()

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

 



NACK.

You have sent this non-RFC intentionally conflicting with [0] to provide
'alternatives' that is not what a [PATCH] submission is.

It's a bit weird to send 'alternatives' - you should by now have a good
sense of which ought to work, if not perhaps more research is required on
your part?

In any case, speculative changes like this should ABSOLUTELY be sent RFC,
and sending things that are merge conflicts as ordinary patches is actually
bordering on being a little rude!

I'm sure it's unintentional :) but for the sake of us being able to work
with these properly you should just send one as RFC and ask whether it'd be
appropriate to send an alternative, and just allude to it in the one you do
send.

Also +Al whose original patch you are in effect reverting.
