[PATCH iwl-next v2 0/4] intel: fix typos in comments
Posted by Hemanth Selam 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Comment typos across the Intel ethernet drivers, split per driver.  Found with scripts/checkpatch.pl using the
misspelling list in scripts/spelling.txt.  Comments only, no code
changes.

v1 went out with a bare [PATCH] and a "net:" subject prefix.  As
maintainer-netdev.rst asks, v2 designates the patches to a tree, and
each subject now names the component it touches instead of "net:".  The
series is rebased onto that tree; the diff is unchanged.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260907064528.6602-1-hemanth.selam@gmail.com/

Thanks for the changes; looks good. However...

netdev maintainers: Everything looks good to me and since there's no 
testing to be done. Did you want to take this directly?

If so,

SGTM, probably saves everyone a little bit of time if we take directly

How did you choose iwl-next as the target tree?

The closest match to that in the MAINTAINERS file is this:
INTEL WIRELESS WIFI LINK (iwlwifi)
M:	Miri Korenblit <miriam.rachel.korenblit@intel.com>
L:	linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org
S:	Supported
W:	https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi
T:	git https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi-next.git/
F:	drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/

but the patches don't touch any of the Intel wifi drivers.

I expect that you want net-next there, but I could just be confuzed.

thanks.

Sorry, the prefix is a confusing one.  Here "iwl" is Intel Wired LAN, not
iwlwifi.  It is the prefix the Intel ethernet maintainers use for their
next-queue tree, the one in MAINTAINERS under INTEL ETHERNET DRIVERS:

  L: intel-wired-lan@lists.osuosl.org (moderated for non-subscribers)
  T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tnguy/next-queue.git

Intel's own developers tag patches for that tree the same way; recent
examples on the list are the ice, idpf, ixd and libie series, all
[PATCH iwl-next].  Since these four patches only touch
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ and its documentation, they go through that
tree rather than straight to net-next.

So I think iwl-next is right here, but Tony and Przemek should correct me
if they would rather have them another way.

Thanks for looking.
