Usualy, I only put the ML in Cc: I've run the script on the 2 patches of the serie and merged the 2 lists. Everyone is in the To: of the cover letter and of the 2 patches. If Théo is "Tejun Heo" ( (maintainer:WORKQUEUE) ), he is already in the To: line.

If all users pass string literals the compiler/0day bot should catch those, but as the very example you give in 2/2 shows, not everybody passes string literals. Maybe git grep would quickly tell that there's only 8 callers and they are all audited quickly or something like that; in that case please include a note to that effect in the commit log. Rasmus
Hello, Christophe.

Those interfaces are deprecated and if you're doing anything with the users, the right course of action would be converting them to use one of the alloc_workqueue interfaces. Thanks. -- tejun

Linus wants to see a "Cc: ${maintainer}" tag in patches that he receives from a maintainer and that modify another subsystem than the subsystem maintained by that maintainer. Thanks, Bart.

Really? Do you remember a lore link for this? Generally I've been junking the CC lines (vs Andrew at the other extreme that often has 10's of CC lines) Jason

Thanks, Bart.

That Cc list is from the original https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201103175841.3495947-7-elver@google.com It was determined based on the full series, mostly from a get_maintainer.pl of 'reviewer' and 'maintainer' lists of the full series diff, minus a some false positives to avoid spamming people, and plus a few people get_maintainer.pl missed that had provided or could provide useful input. So the list above is mostly maintainers+reviewers of mm/, mm/kasan, arch/x86, and arch/arm64. > But where does that Cc-list come from?

Surely if it were going through your tree you would have required an Acked-by: from Tejun and the CC: line would not be required. It would only be required if you can't get a maintainer to respond. regards, dan carpenter
Improve 'create_workqueue', 'create_freezable_workqueue' and 'create_singlethread_workqueue' so that they accept a format specifier and a variable number of arguments. This will put these macros more in line with 'alloc_ordered_workqueue' and the underlying 'alloc_workqueue()' function. This will also allow further code simplification. Patch 1 is the modification of the macro. Patch 2 is an example of simplification possible with this patch Christophe JAILLET (2): workqueue: Have 'alloc_workqueue()' like macros accept a format specifier net/mlx5: Simplify workqueue name creation drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/health.c | 9 +-------- include/linux/workqueue.h | 14 +++++++------- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)
