The cat is not mine :(

I like cycling, powerlifting, bad video games and metal.
Otherwise, I occupy my time with various bits in RISC-V land.

@ljs don't worry, that's what we all are running CI etc for :)

@ljs @broonie @monsieuricon There are a few options for send-email and format-patch that'd reduce some of the manual steps there (as well as things like the branch description that can store your cover) but the managed approach that b4 will give you is probably a order of magnitude easier to get right.

@llvm The essay seems like the stick rather than the carrot!

@llvm I'm far from suggesting that the tags be removed, it's more a question for me of wonder what the tag has been given for?
"I don't know how to apply meaning to them" rather than "these tags are useless and should be removed"?

@llvm How is one supposed to know that, and assign appropriate value to the tag, if they do not provide review comments publicly?

@broonie I guess my point was that if the tag is given on the list, you "know" that it's been given for the version that was posted. If it comes from inside an SoC vendor, it may not have been.

@broonie by old do you mean vN-1, or something from some time ago?
If it's the former, at least one can tell what got the tag.
When it's internal, from someone who is not active in a mailing list, it's hard to assign any meaning.

Sending out patches with internal reviewed by tags seems so meaningless to me.
I've never seen these people before, what do their tags mean?

Interesting post from @geerlingguy about the visionfive2, but also a bit of a reflection on the RISC-V software ecosystem in general.

@monsieuricon @ljs @monsieuricon working with gmail message-ids has a different problem. In my inbox, I get the message-id "CAK9=C2Uy_0B6D2TGq35sfrGkp9s1Td=cEsidzDPTDhG7Nq5EWw@mail.gmail.com" but the mbox file created by b4 is "CAK9_C2Uy_0B6D2TGq35sfrGkp9s1Td_cEsidzDPTDhG7Nq5EWw@mail.gmail.com.mbx".
Not a big deal, but frequently trips me up!

@ljs @monsieuricon Jokes aside, part of me really wants to submit patches as "Conchubhar O'Dubhlaigh" instead of "Conor Dooley" (both are acceptable under the former wording) but but it'd just cause confusion...

@monsieuricon Interesting post, thanks.

So, submitting a patch with "Signed-off-by: Eagle <eagle@small-medium-company.com>" wouldthen okay, as the IT dept. of small-medium-company could verify it.
Similarly, Marcan could verify that Lina is Lina if something came to pass there.
But $unknown-contributor submits something under their online alias should still be challenged?

Huh, probably wouldn't have known about this had it not appeared here:

Certainly nice for the Lina's of the world, but I wonder how far "known identity" goes. "If I google it, I'll find them"?

@marcan If the maintainers are AWOL, they should be removed from MAINTAINERS , as they're not exactly maintaining anything /shrug

hah, love the unmatched photo! Better off with a picture of the VisionFive 2 that actually supports the extension ;)

My venerable VG248QE had its display port die this week, so not the best of fortunes for my hardware lately!

Think I fell victim to a dead Samsung 980 overnight:/

Didn't have the firmware version that's supposedly bad, but system died overnight. Boot was getting stuck decrypting LUKS & now can't even reinstall from a livecd :)
