Hi all, this is, contrary to the subject, not a patch, but rather a question on how to submit a patchset. I've been working on splitting off a shared library from mdadm, with the aim that it can be included from other programs. Reasoning behind it that I've written a monitor program (github.com:/hreinecke/md_monitor) and found it a major pain having to exec() mdadm, and then keep fingers crossed that things succeed; error recovery from _that_ turned out to be a major drag. And so I figured that a shared library is possibly the best way to go. (And, as a side note: having a shared library would also allow to build a python binding, which possibly will have even more use-cases ...) So I've build a patchset to split off a shared library from mdadm, and build mdadm against that: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/hare/mdadm.git branch shlib But as it turns out, these are 30+ patches, and I didn't want to flood the mailinglist with that. So what are the procedures here? Are you okay with having the entire patchset on the mailing list? Or are there other ways? Thanks for your help.
