Thanks for the update. There seem to be trailing whitespaces at least in the first patch, and a conflict in MAINTAINERS vs. current media tree master. Could you address these, please?
Hi, Dongchun I think it need rebase on linuxtv/master.
Dongchun, Please don't send HTML e-mail to Linux kernel related mailing lists.

I did some research on this. It seems that the base64 encoded message body does have carriage returns, in both cases. Git am does not attempt to remove them in that case, but Patchwork does. Hence the files are fine if you download them from Patchwork --- where the mbox files have neither carriage returns nor base64 encoding. What does the file command say about the patch files produced by git format-patch? My guess is that something in between your local computer and LMML (and other mail servers) base64 encodes the message body. But where are the carriage returns added? Nevertheless they seem to be added before the base64 conversion. I think this is also a git issue, but something that is very hard to encounter. ... > ************* MEDIATEK Confidentiality Notice ******************** > The information contained in this e-mail message (including any > attachments) may be confidential, proprietary, privileged, or otherwise > exempt from disclosure under applicable laws.

Hi Sakari, Sorry I just sent email using outlook where default format is HTML, now I use evolution, one Linux mail client that I used to send upstream patch previously.

I used the file command to check the diff patch generated from git format-patch and that downloaded from Patchwork, they are both ASCII text. In fact, we could also open the diff patch with notepad++ tool, if the EOL conversion is UNIX/OSX Format, end-of-line character would be LF. For the DW9768 patch, when we click the toolbar button "Show All Characters", there is no carriage return(CR) at the end of each line, but LF instead for all EOLs. > I think this is also a git issue, but something that is very hard to > encounter. > > ... > > > ************* MEDIATEK Confidentiality Notice ******************** > > The information contained in this e-mail message (including any > > attachments) may be confidential, proprietary, privileged, or otherwise > > exempt from disclosure under applicable laws.

That's because Patchwork appears to be removing the carriage returns. git does not if the content is base64 encoded. Your e-mail setup simply appears to be broken. I'd suggest trying to send the patches encoded in base64 as a workaround. git send-email uses sendemail.transferEncoding configuration option for this.

From my understanding, if both the option "--transfer-encoding=xxx" and the configuration value "sendemail.transferEncoding" are unspecified, the transfer encoding to be used to send the message over SMTP may be "auto". Did you mean doing an experiment by enabling "base64" config for transfer encoding as below? "git config --global sendemail.transferEncoding base64" or "git send-email --transfer-encoding=base64"
