We have not agreed on a definitive, small, urgent patchset for
v3.12-rc5.
And I think, and it's easy to think so, that Linus will be very upset
to see
more
than a couple of patches for the Infiniband subsystem for v3.12-rc6.
If
there's a v3.12-rc6.
So instead of fighting to squeeze the last good patch hunk for v3.12,
we
should think
on what command/response scheme we need for v3.13.
I agree. So as I said before, I think the best idea is just to
disable the half-baked command extension stuff before 3.12, and get
things right for 3.13.
At least, every voices seems to acknowledge that the current command
extension scheme need some work. But I have the feeling the amount
of work is not known.
Do you still think the patch you provided to disable the new stuff is
good?
This one : https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/3015021/
I don't think is good ... adding a bunch of #if 0 / #endif is never
good.
But it's smaller than a revert and, perhaps, politically more appealing.
Regarding the technical details, the kernel compiles without warning.
It was "NACK"'ed by Or Gerlitz who would like to see my improvements
applied
ASAP. But in the mean time Matan Barack expressed concerns over the
scheme as
it is currently, even with my improvements.
YMMV.
Regards.
