This is what this series looks like in my mailbox: Nov 30 Lars Gunnarsson ( 479) [PATCH v4 5/5] tools/usbip: import USB devices on a given bus persistentl Nov 30 Lars Gunnarsson ( 206) [PATCH v5 4/5] tools/usbip: export USB devices on a given bus persistentl Nov 30 Lars Gunnarsson ( 292) [PATCH v4 3/5] tools/usbip: add usb event monitor into libusbip Nov 30 Lars Gunnarsson ( 86) [PATCH v2 2/5] tools/usbip: update manual pages Nov 30 Lars Gunnarsson ( 118) [PATCH v3 1/5] tools/usbip: update protocol documentation Nov 30 Lars Gunnarsson ( 20) [PATCH v6 0/5] tools/usbip: Patch set summary You have a mix of "v" levels and nothing is threaded at all, showing what patch is related to what. Look at the lore.kernel.org link for this, which shows none of the patches in the series: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211130222254.GA16447@dell-precision-T3610/ Please use tools like 'git send-email' and 'git format-patch' to send and create patches if you don't want to do it by hand as they will handle the threading and versioning properly for you automatically. Here's how a patch series looks in my mailbox that was done correctly as contrast: Nov 24 Prashant Malani ( 34) [PATCH 0/4] usb: Use notifier for linking Type C ports.

That is because the correct "In-Reply-To:" lines are being set. Please fix up and resend as a "v7" patch series for ALL patches (patch versions are for the whole series, not for individual patches, otherwise it is crazy to try to track...) thanks, greg k-h
