Hi sam, So sorry for responding late. As I have done a pre-review and talked with the author before sending out the patches. So, for this serial patches, Acked-by: Xinliang Liu <z.liuxinliang@hisilicon.com> > > If the reality is that John is the Maintainer today, > then we should update MAINTAINERS to reflect this. I am assuming you are talking about the kirin[1] drm driver not the hibmc[2] one, right? I really appreciate John's awesome work at kirin drm driver all the way. Honestly, after my work change from mobile to server years ago, I am always waiting for some guy who is stably working at kirin drm driver to take the maintenance work. John, surely is a such guy. Please add up a patch to update the maintainer as John, if John agree so. Then John can push the patch set to drm maintainer himself. *Note* that the maintainer patch should break hisilicon drivers into kirin and hibmc two parts, like bellow: DRM DRIVERS FOR HISILICON HIBMC M: Xinliang Liu <z.liuxinliang@hisilicon.com> ... F: drivers/gpu/drm/hisilicon/hibmc ... DRM DRIVERS FOR HISILICON KIRIN M: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org> ... F: drivers/gpu/drm/hisilicon/kirin ... [1] drivers/gpu/drm/hisilicon/kirin # for kirin mobile display driver [2] drivers/gpu/drm/hisilicon/hibmc # for server VGA driver Thanks, Xinliang > > Thanks! > > Sam > > . >

We all know how it is to be busy, especially when trying to keep up after role changes. Unless someone beats me, then I will apply tonight or tomorrow. > > If the reality is that John is the Maintainer today, > > then we should update MAINTAINERS to reflect this. > > I am assuming you are talking about the kirin[1] drm driver not the hibmc[2] > one, right? > I really appreciate John's awesome work at kirin drm driver all the way. > Honestly, after my work change from mobile to server years ago, I am always > waiting for some guy who is stably working at kirin drm driver to take the > maintenance work. > John, surely is a such guy.

If yes then please consider to apply for commit rights to drm-misc-next. And read: https://drm.pages.freedesktop.org/maintainer-tools/index.html See this to get an account: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/AccountRequests/ You will need an ssh account for drm-misc-next as it is not (yet?) gitlab enabled.

I guess if necessary, though I don't believe myself to be a great maintainer. Though I do have the hardware, am regularly are testing on it, and maintain a tree of patches to keep it working, so I can validate basic correctness and handle patch wrangling. > If yes then please consider to apply for commit rights to drm-misc-next. > > And read: > https://drm.pages.freedesktop.org/maintainer-tools/index.html > > See this to get an account: > https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/AccountRequests/ > > You will need an ssh account for drm-misc-next as it is not (yet?) > gitlab enabled. I'll try to find some time to read through the above and apply. thanks -john
