It's normally fair as you say. However, as you know, I've been out for a while. This set only missed 4.4 because I didn't have time to review it prior to the merge window. Not the fault of anyone who submitted it, but a reality of my life circumstances none the less. Reviewing this and getting the blocked code moving forward is at the top of my 4.5 candidate list. > Lack of RoCE v2 support in the IB core is slowing down the RocE > support for mlx5 and adoption of Soft-RoCE, it's fair enough to ask > for you as maintainer to react/respond after three months the patches > are waiting. > > Or. > > [1] http://marc.info/?l=linux-rdma&m=143948192926723&w=2 > >> Otherwise, could we please push this series to v4.5? >> If you need, I can rebase it over your for-4.5 branch once you'll open >> such a branch. -- Doug Ledford <[email protected]> GPG KeyID: 0E572FDD
