Dear e1000 and IWL contributors, We are implementing a crucial process change to enhance the quality and efficiency of our upstream development and upstreaming efforts. Effective immediately, every INTEL/NCIS patch posted to IWL must have at least one "Reviewed-by" tag, those are provided during e1000 review process. Any exceptions to that process must be agreed upon. By adding the "reviewed-by" tag, we can establish a clear indication that a patch has undergone careful scrutiny and has received approval from a reviewer.
Key Rules: 1. Mandatory "reviewed-by" Tag: Every patch submitted to e1000 must have at least one "reviewed-by" tag from a reviewer before it is sent to IWL. This tag serves as a sign of endorsement and validates the quality of the patch. 2. Completion within 48 Hours: The review process should be completed within 48 hours after the patch appears on e1000, except for large series that may require more time. We encourage reviewers to provide timely feedback, ensuring a smooth and efficient upstreaming process. 3. Continued Tagging in Subsequent Patch Series: The "reviewed-by" tag should continue to be added to subsequent patch series for IWL. This ensures that each iteration of the patch receives the necessary reviews, even if modifications have been made. These changes aim to streamline the upstreaming process, improve code quality, and encourage collaboration among contributors. Please ensure compliance with these new guidelines. If you have any questions or need further clarification regarding this process change, please feel free to reach out to me or any of upstreaming contact points. Thank you for your understanding and commitment to maintaining the highest standards in our upstreaming process.
