There is an article, which asks not to submit too many patches at once: Submitting patches: the essential guide to getting your code into the kernel — The Linux Kernel documentation <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html><https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>
NO!!!! No more huge patch bombs to<https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org <mailto:linux-kernel%40vger.kernel.org>people! <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html> <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>
< <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>https://lore.kernel.org/r/20050711.125305.08322243.davem@davemloft.net <https://lore.kernel.org/r/20050711.125305.08322243.davem@davemloft.net>>
This is confusing as you are requesting more patches. What options do I have? - should I remove linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org until you are happy with the review? - can I submit a small number of patches for a non fully functional driver and submit the next portion after they are reviewed and accepted?
Thanks Iouri
