I agree qemu-option-trace.texi belongs to the Tracing section, however I think trace-events is not specific to Tracing but belongs to everybody maintaining a C file in the top directory... Since they'll need to modify this file. > Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> > --- > MAINTAINERS | 2 ++ > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/MAINTAINERS b/MAINTAINERS > index 459e359..e187b1f 100644 > --- a/MAINTAINERS > +++ b/MAINTAINERS > @@ -1656,6 +1656,8 @@ Tracing > M: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> > S: Maintained > F: trace/ > +F: trace-events So without "trace-events": Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org> > +F: qemu-option-trace.texi > F: scripts/tracetool.py > F: scripts/tracetool/ > F: docs/devel/tracing.txt >

Since they'll > need to modify this file. Right ... but what do you do if you just want to fix something in the generic comments of that file? Who's then responsible for picking up the patch? ... well, updates to comments could maybe go through qemu-trivial, too, so I'm also fine if we do not list trace-events in MAINTAINERS. I'll leave this up to Stefan to decide. Thomas

I'd rather hear Stefan's opinion before outright nixing the addition of trace-events to his section - personally, I think any patch touching a trace-events is fair game for review by the tracing tree, even if it ends up going in through another tree.

I'm happy to serve as a catch-all for trace-events patches (especially trace events in unmaintained code). It is preferrable for trace-events changes to go via the subsystem, if there is a maintainer. Thanks, applied to my tracing tree: https://github.com/stefanha/qemu/commits/tracing Stefan

The "trace-events" and "qemu-option-trace.texi" files in the top directory are currently "unmaintained" according to scripts/get_maintainer.pl. They obviously belong to the Tracing section, so add an entry for them there. Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> --- MAINTAINERS | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+)
