[libvirt] [PATCH] Add a MAINTAINERS file to suggest reviewers for patches
Posted by Daniel P. Berrangé 5 years, 11 months ago
Currently all patches are simply sent to the main libvirt development
mailing list. Sometimes individual developers are also CC'd but this is
typically the exception.

Libvirt does not follow a subsystem maintainer model, so there is no
notion of owners for the different areas of code, but there certainly
are people with high levels of expertize in specific areas.

This patch thus proposes pulling in QEMU's  get_maintainer.pl script and
creating MAINTAINERS file to list who the experts are for specific
areas. Combined with git-pubish, this will help ensure that patches are
brought to the attention of people with direct expertize.

For example:

$ git show b04629b62934caa8786e73c3db985672422fc662 | \
    ./build-aux/get_maintainer.pl
Jim Fehlig <jfehlig@suse.com> (maintainer:libxl)
libvir-list@redhat.com (open list:All patches)

Or

$ git show e7cb9c4e230c3c77e35e72334c261b5b0a2211c6 | \
    ./build-aux/get_maintainer.pl
Jiri Denemar <jdenemar@redhat.com> (maintainer:CPU modelling)
libvir-list@redhat.com (open list:All patches)

Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com>

+Libvirt Maintainers
+===================
+
+The intention of this file is NOT to establish who owns what portions of the
+code base, but to provide a set of names that developers can consult when they
+have a question about a particular subset and also to provide a set of names
+to be CC'd when submitting a patch to obtain appropriate review.
+
+In general, if you have a question about inclusion of a patch, you should
+consult libvir-list@redhat.com and not any specific individual privately.
+
+Descriptions of section entries:
+
+	M: Mail patches to: FullName <address@domain>
+	S: Status, one of the following:
+	   Supported:	Someone is actually paid to look after this.
+	   Maintained:	Someone actually looks after it.
+	   Odd Fixes:	It has a maintainer but they don't have time to do
+			much other than throw the odd patch in. See below.
+	   Orphan:	No current maintainer [but maybe you could take the
+			role as you write your new code].
+	   Obsolete:	Old code. Something tagged obsolete generally means
+			it has been replaced by a better system and you
+			should be using that.
+	F: Files and directories with wildcard patterns.
+	   A trailing slash includes all files and subdirectory files.
+	   F:	drivers/net/	all files in and below drivers/net
+	   F:	drivers/net/*	all files in drivers/net, but not below
+	   F:	*/net/*		all files in "any top level directory"/net
+	   One pattern per line.  Multiple F: lines acceptable.
+	X: Files and directories that are NOT maintained, same rules as F:
+	   Files exclusions are tested before file matches.
+	   Can be useful for excluding a specific subdirectory, for instance:
+	   F:	net/
+	   X:	net/ipv6/
+	   matches all files in and below net excluding net/ipv6/
+	K: Keyword perl extended regex pattern to match content in a
+	   patch or file.  For instance:
+	   K: of_get_profile
+	      matches patches or files that contain "of_get_profile"
+	   K: \b(printk|pr_(info|err))\b
+	      matches patches or files that contain one or more of the words
+	      printk, pr_info or pr_err
+	   One regex pattern per line.  Multiple K: lines acceptable.

+    --git-all-signature-types => include signers regardless of signature type
+        or use only ${signature_pattern} signers (default: $email_git_all_signature_types)
+    --git-fallback => use git when no exact MAINTAINERS pattern (default: $email_git_fallback)
+    --git-min-signatures => number of signatures required (default: $email_git_min_signatures)
+    --git-max-maintainers => maximum maintainers to add (default: $email_git_max_maintainers)
+    --git-min-percent => minimum percentage of commits required (default: $email_git_min_percent)
+    --git-blame => use git blame to find modified commits for patch or file
+    --git-since => git history to use (default: $email_git_since)
+    --hg-since => hg history to use (default: $email_hg_since)
+    --interactive => display a menu (mostly useful if used with the --git option)
+    --m => include maintainer(s) if any
+    --r => include reviewer(s) if any
+    --n => include name 'Full Name <addr\@domain.tld>'
+    --l => include list(s) if any
+    --s => include subscriber only list(s) if any
+    --remove-duplicates => minimize duplicate email names/addresses
+    --roles => show roles (status:subsystem, git-signer, list, etc...)
+    --rolestats => show roles and statistics (commits/total_commits, %)
+    --file-emails => add email addresses found in -f file (default: 0 (off))
+  --scm => print SCM tree(s) if any
+  --status => print status if any
+  --subsystem => print subsystem name if any
+  --web => print website(s) if any
+
+Output type options:
+  --separator [, ] => separator for multiple entries on 1 line
+    using --separator also sets --nomultiline if --separator is not [, ]
+  --multiline => print 1 entry per line
+
+Other options:
+  --pattern-depth => Number of pattern directory traversals (default: 0 (all))
+  --keywords => scan patch for keywords (default: $keywords)
+  --sections => print all of the subsystem sections with pattern matches
+  --mailmap => use .mailmap file (default: $email_use_mailmap)
+  --version => show version
+  --help => show this help information
+
+Default options:
+  [--email --nogit --git-fallback --m --r --n --l --multiline --pattern-depth=0
+   --remove-duplicates --rolestats]
+
+Notes:
+  Using "-f directory" may give unexpected results:
+      Used with "--git", git signators for _all_ files in and below
+          directory are examined as git recurses directories.
+          Any specified X: (exclude) pattern matches are _not_ ignored.
+      Used with "--nogit", directory is used as a pattern match,
+          no individual file within the directory or subdirectory
+          is matched.
+      Used with "--git-blame", does not iterate all files in directory
+  Using "--git-blame" is slow and may add old committers and authors
+      that are no longer active maintainers to the output.
+  Using "--roles" or "--rolestats" with git send-email --cc-cmd or any
+      other automated tools that expect only ["name"] <email address>
+      may not work because of additional output after <email address>.
+  Using "--rolestats" and "--git-blame" shows the #/total=% commits,
+      not the percentage of the entire file authored.  # of commits is
+      not a good measure of amount of code authored.  1 major commit may
+      contain a thousand lines, 5 trivial commits may modify a single line.
+  If git is not installed, but mercurial (hg) is installed and an .hg
+      repository exists, the following options apply to mercurial:
+          --git,
+          --git-min-signatures, --git-max-maintainers, --git-min-percent, and
+          --git-blame
+      Use --hg-since not --git-since to control date selection
+  File ".get_maintainer.conf", if it exists in the libvirt source root
+      directory, can change whatever get_maintainer defaults are desired.
+      Entries in this file can be any command line argument.
+      This file is prepended to any additional command line arguments.
+      Multiple lines and # comments are allowed.

We do not follow a subsystem maintainer model, so I think this approach
is out of place. If a maintainer feels like a change should be reviewed
by an expert, they already do that in my experience.

Personally, I prefer not to be CC'd on libvirt patches. I follow the list.
And Jirka actually sets his Mail-Followup-To header to exclude
his address for all the patches and e-mail he sends.

Anyway, I don't think we have such a high volume of patches that
reviewers can't watch incoming mails for patches that touch an area they
care about or are interested in. In other words, I don't mind this if
it's optional, but I don't see a real benefit. If someone doesn't have
time to review a particular patch, CCing them won't help anyway. And I'm
afraid it could even cause others to not look at the patch since they
would think the "maintainer" has to handle it.

Sure, I'm not claiming it magically makes time to review something, but we
do have a pretty high volume of incoming patches to track, making it easy
for things to get lost / missed. For people who work on libvirt only part
time, tracking all mails is a non-negligible undertaking. 

The idea of CC'ing is that it alerts people to patches where they might have
a direct interest. Even if they don't have time to review, it gives them an
alert that someone is proposing something that might be relevant / impacting
on them.

Regards,
Daniel

IMO, the volume of patches recently seems to be split between 3 things -
libvirt proper, libvirt dbus, and "build related" with the latter two
really being busy. I've personally assumed that the latter two based on
their fairly quick review response time are "in good hands", I just mark
them that way as part of my libvir-list patch work flow processing. That
just leaves the review cycle time for libvirt specific patches.

Perhaps, depends on your CC and libvir-list processing and filtering
rules... If that mail ends up in my "Inbox" instead of "libvir-list"
folder, then it's more time consuming for me as a regular reader to
handle that and I may not notice it "right away" either.

Then there are those that don't like being CC'd - something you learn
the more time you spend following the list. Unfortunately there are
those that use CC just because someone has reviewed their patch
previously or responded to a query - even though the next series or
question has nothing to do with the previous.

Another downside to MAINTAINERS is maintaining it. Even more painful if
someone wants to change their email or something similar. Those that
follow this list, do reviews, and have commit access have a general idea
of where expertise lies. If I'm reviewing something in CPU or Migration
and am not sure, I will either ask or wait for Jirka to have a looksee
as well.

While it's far from perfect, the current model seems to for the most
part work. If a patch is missed, someone interested will ping on it. In
the end, it's generally more of a "time" problem for those of us
developing and reviewing/pushing.

This is a matter of e-mail filtering. For instance any patch that I'm
CCed on will end up in a separate folder different to INBOX (which also
depends on your work flow: some like to keep inbox empty, whereas I
"only" read e-mails and don't move them).

Again, I'd say this is matter of proper filter set up.

Well, that's only part of the problem. For instance, I've written QoS
and I'd like to review any patch against src/util/virnetdevbandwidth.c
(just read the comment in virNetDevBandwidthSet and you'll see how
complicated this feature is). And quite frankly, if I need to catch up
with the upstream list (e.g. after some vacation), I merely just skim
over patches, and if any of them has a reply I skip the whole thread.
That is, I don't read others reviews. But if I were CC'ed, I'd get
another e-mail that would end up in different folder (with much lower
traffic) and therefore it would get my attention.

Sure, it's matter of fine tuning - if there would be somebody CCed on
every patch than this does not make things any better. I view this patch
of Dan's as a way for us, "owners" of some features to be notified when
somebody tries to patch "our" code.

Well, long gone are times when Eric was around and not only read every
e-mail on the list but also compared patches sent to the list with those
actually pushed. I honestly say, if any patch has a review (unless it
has subject that interests me) I skip the whole patch set and mark it as
read.

tl;dr I like this patch.
