I'll button this up. I'm surprised that I need to import the namespace of my own module... but I don't have a strong enough understanding of what all is going on. Also, allmodconfig never compiles for me, so I can't really test it: make W=1 ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- -j$(nproc) ... arch/arm/vdso/vgettimeofday.c:10:5: error: no previous prototype for ‘__vdso_clock_gettime’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes] 10 | int __vdso_clock_gettime(clockid_t clock, | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ arch/arm/vdso/vgettimeofday.c:16:5: error: no previous prototype for ‘__vdso_clock_gettime64’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes] 16 | int __vdso_clock_gettime64(clockid_t clock, | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ arch/arm/vdso/vgettimeofday.c:22:5: error: no previous prototype for ‘__vdso_gettimeofday’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes] 22 | int __vdso_gettimeofday(struct __kernel_old_timeval *tv, | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ arch/arm/vdso/vgettimeofday.c:28:5: error: no previous prototype for ‘__vdso_clock_getres’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes] 28 | int __vdso_clock_getres(clockid_t clock_id, I'll try it without cross-compile and see if I have better luck.

Not all that useful as a changelog. I have no idea what I told you as that was probably 100s of reviews ago. When writing changelogs for patch revisions, you need to describe what changed. And it's best to put that into the relevant patch. IOW, I want to know what I said to change so I know what I need to look at again in particular. And now that I've found v11, 'suggestions from Rob' isn't really accurate as you fixed errors reported by running the tools. Rob

I hope I'm not coming off as a know-it-all by saying this, and I didn't intend to make you feel bad. Ask me how do I know, and the answer will be by making the same mistakes, of course. Not sure if he's already on your radar, but you can watch and analyze the patches submitted by Russell King. For example the recent patch set for making phylink accept DSA CPU port OF nodes with no fixed-link or phy-handle. Perfect timing in resubmitting a new series when one was due, even when the previous one got no feedback whatsoever (which seems to be the hardest situation to deal with). You need to be able to take decisions even when you're doing so on your own, and much of that comes with experience.

I understand the v10 fiasco was my fault - I'm alright with being put in my place. This is very much a learning experience for me, so all this feedback helps. And I also am recognizing a difference being past the RFC stage. The changes are becoming more subtle, while the initial RFCs had pretty significant rewrites / restructures. I'll be mindful of this going forward, and call out any changes I come across in self-review. > > Not sure if he's already on your radar, but you can watch and analyze > the patches submitted by Russell King.

I had thought this v13 would have been long enough since v12 (4 days) but that seems to have been incorrect (understanding it was over a weekend). I'll be more mindful of this in the future.
