Hello Shaun, As far as I know linux-next should not be used as a basis for the development of a patch series. Unless something has changed I think Jens expects a patch series that applies cleanly on top of his for-4.9/block branch. But it doesn't seem like this patch series applies cleanly on top of that branch: $ for p in ~/\[PATCH\ v5\ *; do echo "$(basename "$p")"; git am "$p" || break; done [PATCH v5 1_7] block: Add 'zoned' queue limit - Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@xxxxxxxx> - 2016-09-29 2111.eml Applying: block: Add 'zoned' queue limit [PATCH v5 2_7] blk-sysfs: Add 'chunk_sectors' to sysfs attributes - Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@xxxxxxxx> - 2016-09-29 2111.eml Applying: blk-sysfs: Add 'chunk_sectors' to sysfs attributes [PATCH v5 3_7] block: update chunk_sectors in blk_stack_limits() - Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@xxxxxxxx> - 2016-09-29 2111.eml Applying: block: update chunk_sectors in blk_stack_limits() [PATCH v5 4_7] block: Define zoned block device operations - Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@xxxxxxxx> - 2016-09-29 2111.eml Applying: block: Define zoned block device operations [PATCH v5 5_7] block: Implement support for zoned block devices - Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@xxxxxxxx> - 2016-09-29 2111.eml Applying: block: Implement support for zoned block devices error: patch failed: block/Makefile:22 error: block/Makefile: patch does not apply error: patch failed: include/uapi/linux/Kbuild:70 error: include/uapi/linux/Kbuild: patch does not apply Patch failed at 0001 block: Implement support for zoned block devices The copy of the patch that failed is found in: .git/rebase-apply/patch When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue". If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead. To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".
