In linux kernel mail list, I often see such string in mail subject:
    [PATCH V3 3/3]
or
    [PATCH 0/8]

What's meaning of "V3", "3/3" and "0/8"?

Hi Wuzhouhui,

The 0/8 is the number of the patch in a series (0 for the patch that explains the whole series, in a series of 8 patches). V3 is the version of the series, when it is not accepted as-is and needs rework according to the feedback gathered.
Regards,

Hubert Chaumette
