Sure, you have a commit message, but you didn't point out any v3->v4 changes. (If there are no v3->v4 changes, then please pick up the R-b's received for v3.) > I removed the CC of some patches because > there's no update from v3 to v4.

Maintainers should always be CC'd, even if there are no changes relative to the previous version. Personally I prefer summarizing the changes in the cover letter, and also explaining the changes in more detail -- or pointing out the lack of any changes -- on each individual patch. If you have a bit of time for reading, I recommend the following wiki article: https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Laszlo's-unkempt-git-guide-for-edk2-contributors-and-maintainers In it, I had written down most everything that I have in mind about the edk2 development process. The following steps pertain to the current discussion (i.e., picking up feedback tags, adding Maintainer CC's, and pointing out changes per patch): https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Laszlo's-unkempt-git-guide-for-edk2-contributors-and-maintainers#contrib-18 https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Laszlo's-unkempt-git-guide-for-edk2-contributors-and-maintainers#contrib-28 https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Laszlo's-unkempt-git-guide-for-edk2-contributors-and-maintainers#contrib-30 Thanks, Laszlo > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Laszlo Ersek [mailto:[email protected]] >> Sent: Monday, October 09, 2017 11:56 PM >> To: Wang, Jian J <[email protected]>; [email protected] >> Cc: Kinney, Michael D <[email protected]>; Wolman, Ayellet >> <[email protected]>; Yao, Jiewen <[email protected]>; Dong, Eric >> <[email protected]>; Zeng, Star <[email protected]> >> Subject: Re: [edk2] [PATCH v4 6/6] OvmfPkg/QemuVideoDxe: Bypass NULL >> pointer detection during VBE SHIM installing >> >> On 10/09/17 17:54, Laszlo Ersek wrote: >>> On 10/09/17 16:17, Jian J Wang wrote: >>>> QemuVideoDxe driver will link VBE SHIM into page 0.
