You have sent him a patch that has triggered this response. He used to manually respond to these common problems, but in order to save his sanity (he kept writing the same thing over and over, yet to different people), I was created. Hopefully you will not take offence and will fix the problem in your patch and resubmit it so that it can be accepted into the Linux kernel tree. You are receiving this message because of the following common error(s) as indicated below: - This looks like a new version of a previously submitted patch, but you did not list below the --- line any changes from the previous version. Please read the section entitled "The canonical patch format" in the kernel file, Documentation/SubmittingPatches for what needs to be done here to properly describe this. If you wish to discuss this problem further, or you have questions about how to resolve this issue, please feel free to respond to this email and Greg will reply once he has dug out from the pending patches received from other developers. thanks, greg k-h's patch email bot

Done. I still needed to define envp_string before envp (because it is used in initialization). I sent out a v3 with these changes.

For security, we would like to monitor and track when the thunderbolt devices are authorized and deauthorized (i.e. when the thunderbolt sysfs "authorized" attribute changes). Currently the userspace gets a udev change notification when there is a change, but the state may have changed (again) by the time we look at the authorized attribute in sysfs. So an authorization event may go unnoticed. Thus make it easier by informing the actual change (new value of authorized attribute) in the udev change notification. The change is included as a key value "authorized=<val>" where <val> is the new value of sysfs attribute "authorized", and is described at Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-thunderbolt under /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../authorized Signed-off-by: Rajat Jain <rajatja@google.com> --- drivers/thunderbolt/switch.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
