Message-ID: <521EA567.1070801@gmail.com> Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2013 10:35:35 +0900 From: Akira Hayakawa <ruby.wktk@...il.com> To: dm-devel@...hat.com CC: gregkh@...uxfoundation.org, kernelnewbies@...nelnewbies.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [RFC] dm-lc: plan to go to staging Hi, I am happy to see that dm-lc is picked up by LWN. http://lwn.net/Articles/562938/ Now I think I should consider the next step forward. As Joe Thornber said before, what I have to do next are 1. Get some feedback from 3rd party users. 2. Reviewed by Mike Snitzer. As in http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2013-July/msg00137.html To achieve the first goal, I am thinking of going to staging tree for dm-lc to be widely available to people in community. dm-lc is now managed in Github repo as a kernel module however, getting available in the tree means a lot to get 3rd party users. Does this plan sound nice? If so, what is the next step to go to staging? I have a patch against 3.11-rc7 in linux-next locally. Sending the patch to Greg is the next step? And who and what should be included in CC? For your information, there is a precedent that DM target gets in staging tree. That is enhanceio, also a caching target. Any comments will be appreciated.
