Hello Philippe, Kevin,

The QEMU 8.2 freeze is next week,
and the IDE maintainer (John) hasn't been replying to emails lately.

Kevin, considering that you picked up Fiona's series:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/d6286ef8-6cf0-4e72-90e9-e91cef9da...@proxmox.com/
which was sent 2023-09-06, via your tree, do you think that you could
queue up some additional pending IDE patches?

If you don't want to take them, perhaps Kevin can take them?


Yes, I can take IDE patches through my tree if necessary. And actually I
went through patches that are still open and saw yours earlier this
week, so I already made a mental note to get to them in time for 8.2.


I have these two patches:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2023-10/msg00172.html
which was sent 2023-10-05
and
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2023-10/msg00382.html
which was sent 2023-10-11


Both of them are fixes, so they are not immediately affected by the
feature freeze. If there is feature work to do, it will take priority
for me until Tuesday.


Looking at the list, Mark's series:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2023-10/msg01289.html
v2 was sent quite recently, 2023-10-24, but seems to have sufficient
tags to be ready to go in this cycle as well.


It only seems to have Tested-by tags so far, so if you have spare cycles
to give it some actual code review, that might be useful. I'll try to
have a look, too.


Just to be sure, there is nothing else IDE related waiting for me at the
moment, right?


We have Mark's via-ide legacy mode fix series:
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20231024224056.842607-1-mark.cave-ayl...@ilande.co.uk/

but you've asked for some changes in it and not sure Mark will do a v3 
with those and when. If he can't do that before next devel cycle we could 
go with my original fix for the same issue:


https://patchew.org/QEMU/cover.1697661160.git.bala...@eik.bme.hu/4095e01f4596e77a478759161ae736f0c398600a.1697661160.git.bala...@eik.bme.hu/

instead for 8.2. But we still have a few weeks to sort this out if this 
isn't the last chance to fix it so maybe wait for updated series from 
Mark for now?

BALATON Zoltan

Bernhard has sent a R-b already:

https://patchew.org/QEMU/20231024224056.842607-1-mark.cave-ayl...@ilande.co.uk/

but review from IDE people would not hurt.

(I had a simpler version for this only touching the via-ide first:

https://patchew.org/QEMU/cover.1697661160.git.bala...@eik.bme.hu/4095e01f4596e77a478759161ae736f0c398600a.1697661160.git.bala...@eik.bme.hu/

but Mark wanted to make it more general for possible use in other devices 
at some point.)
