Hey Gleb, sorry I didn't wait for your review, but I did ask around on what
the timeout for this would be and was informed 2 weeks and as it had been
over a month, with quite a bit of feedback from others in the area, all of which
had been addressed I thought that was reasonable.

A simple reply of "I do intend to review but don't have time yet so please wait" I think would be useful in these types of situations, as I know everyone's busy
but its impossible to know what others are thinking.

Clearly the MTU think was just a silly mistake, which I backed out instantly so
lets not be to harsh on that one ;-)

With regards MAINTAINERS, is there any sort of automation which could alert
on this (pre-commit) hook maybe as I'm sure that would be helpful as a
reminder.

I would definitely like to understand more about your concerns and learn from your knowledge in this area, so thanks for that offer, and while it does sound
unforgiving I totally understand where you're coming from.

Hopefully together we can bring this to a satisfactory conclusion as I would hate
for both carp and lagg to stay as broken, 2 years is long enough :D

    Regards
    Steve

   Steven,

   I'm sorry that wasn't able to review D4111 in time, but I have
very strong concerns against r292275. And r292379 doesn't
improve situation. I am asking you to back out both patches,
and then we can get together back to the problem. The 156226
bug was sitting for 2 years in the bugzilla for a reason. It
is a not "low hanging fruit" like koobs@ says.

I'm sorry if I sound unforgiving, but you got a very bad commit
record in this area. You committed r290403 to ip_carp.c which
"added MTU support to carp interfaces", and that was after 4 YEARS
of carp(4) being not an interface. So, I assume you doesn't
have a good understanding of the current state of the stack,
direction it is developed and things that can be done and
can not (including DELAY() in callout(9).

Note, that the MAINTAINERS file still lists me for ip_carp.c,
and you didn't wait for my review. yet another reason to ask
for backout.

I understand that you got a product at work that needs to
have problem fixed. I'm glad that you got a patch that works
it around. But that doesn't mean the patch should immeditely
be dumped in head with a threat of soon MFC.
