It is not looked upon kindly. Jason, It's not that you asked to see the code ala "hey, do you happen to have a git with the user space code for people to inspect while doing the review on the kernel part", but rather U2 saying in a definitive manner that posting the user space code should be imposed as pre-requirement to acceptance of the kernel parts. In parallel, U2 totally rejected our usage of udata @ on the spot and when I mentioned that it's a feature which was designed for that purpose exactly and from day one, it took me three reminders to get a "you know what, maybe that can fly" comment from you. So here I started to realize that there's something in the attitude that goes beyond the details, and I made the you're not the boss comment. > I'm really confused why you didn't just post the github links last > week, the patches are all a month old on there.
