I don't think that's needed since the file name should make that obvious and we won't have that many seperate 2.6.9 patches. > since I suspect that we will have additional backport patches > for 2.6.9 going forward, i.e., when the user-mode and SDP support is > complete and released to kernel.org someone may want a packport to 2.6.9. Just name new chunks appropriately or update the existing ones. e.g. linux-2.6.9-uverbs.diff could be the uverbs patch for 2.6.9 support. Ditto for SDP. Maybe add an enumerator so that one apply patches that would collide in some same files without having to physically glob the patches together. BTW, patches can contain the same text that we post to the mailing list to document the contents. The existing linux-2.6.11-sinai.diff is a good example. grant _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
