[+cc linux-pci, Konstantin, since you're thinking about this area, too] The 0-day bot seems to remove mailing lists from the recipient list, which means reports like the one below don't become part of the public email thread and don't get connected to the patch in patchwork. I think this is a problem. For example here are Xuesong's original patch, the patch in patchwork, and the 0-day bot report: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211027081312.53682-1-xuesong.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-pci/patch/20211027081312.53682-1-xuesong.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ https://lists.01.org/hyperkitty/list/kbuild-all@xxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/QISVC5TJIHTEMAPX7T7YXOZEDS5CBURY/ Neither the lore link nor the patchwork have any indication that the 0-day bot found a problem. It looks like the 0-day bot sent the report to all the individual recipients from the original patch, but it ADDED these recipients: llvm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx kbuild-all@xxxxxxxxxxxx and REMOVED these: linux-pci@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx linux-acpi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx linux-arm-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Gmail filed Xuesong's original patch and the 0-day report as spam. That's a problem on my end, but the bigger problem is that I work from the patchwork queue, which has no indication of the problem. I'm sure you have a reason for removing the mailing lists. Should we revisit that? Should I be approaching this a different way? If a *person* responds to a patch on the list, I expect a reply-all so the response becomes part of the thread. Why should the 0-day bot be different? I added linux-pci to cc, but since the 0-day report didn't go to the list, I don't think this message will be threaded correctly on lore. It should be part of https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211027081035.53370-1-xuesong.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ On Thu, Oct 28, 2021 at 06:46:16AM +0800, kernel test robot wrote: > Hi Xuesong, > > Thank you for the patch!
