[PATCH] media: iris: MAINTAINERS: Document actual maintainership by Bryan O'Donoghue
Posted by Krzysztof Kozlowski 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Bryan O'Donoghue reviews and applies patches for both Iris and Venus
Qualcomm SoC video codecs (visible in git log as his Signed-off-by and
in pull requests like [1]), so he is de facto the maintainer responsible
for the code.  Reflect this actual state my changing his entry from
reviewer to maintainer and moving the entry to alphabetical position by
first name.

I think it would be good to add here also T:. Bryan, do you use your
kernel.org repo or the freedesktop repo from last pull request?

Freedesktop - the media-ci lets us test a whole bunch of stuff so its 
convenient / less work to issue a PR from there.

NAK.

The roles and responsibilities are well agreed by media maintainer(Hans), with
Bryan part of that discussion, w.r.t code contributions to iris and sending
patches to media tree. The only reason Bryan post the patches is that Hans wants
single PR for patches across Qualcomm media drivers (Camss/Videoss)

Hi Hans,

Incase you would like to split sending PRs, as the contributions for Venus/Iris
would be significantly higher, let us know, we can pick that up separately.

Regards,
Vikash

That's the maintainer role, so Bryan is the maintainer. I am documenting
actual status and your NAK is naking what? That Bryan cannot handle patches?

Sorry, this is already happening.

Your push back here is odd, impolite and really disappointing. You
actually should be happy that person outside wants to care about this
driver...

Considering quality of the code you sent as Iris upstreaming, you are
not there yet.

https://lore.kernel.org/all/1690550624-14642-1-git-send-email-quic_vgarodia@quicinc.com/

Please learn, read how the process works, what is the responsibility of
maintainers first.


Best regards,
Krzysztof

I would say, you are reading too much into it, i updated what we have discussed
and agreed upon the different roles for managing venus and iris drivers.

If you see the scope to improve the quality, you are always welcome to add
patches to improve it.

Reading too much? Bryan HANDLES THE PATCHES.

That's it.

There is nothing "too much here".

Person handling the patches IS the maintainer. Full stop.

I spoke about your work. You cannot use argument that you want to handle
patches regardless of quality of your code.

Based on email you forwarded to me and some more feedback I got, I think
I understood what would be the solution to satisfy your point of not
changing existing entry and solve my problem of maintainer handling
patches not being listed anywhere as maintainer. I will solve it v2.

Krzysztof

Doh, this is definitely my bad, I should have made a _new_ entry in 
MAINTAIENRS similar to this.

Its 1:1 what we have for drivers/media/platform/qcom

I'll add that entry and leave the Iris/Venus entries as-is.

Any progress on this? We agreed you will be sending that, but I think it
did not happen, so maybe you want me to send it?
