They have Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable which is fine, in itself; however, they have CR-CR-LF line terminators. For example, from the first patch: diff --git a/OvmfPkg/Library/ResetSystemLib/ResetSystemLib.inf b/OvmfPkg/L= ibrary/ResetSystemLib/ResetSystemLib.inf index 7c44f99a5c..2f24dac87f 100644 --- a/OvmfPkg/Library/ResetSystemLib/ResetSystemLib.inf +++ b/OvmfPkg/Library/ResetSystemLib/ResetSystemLib.inf @@ -30,4 +30,5 @@ [Packages] [LibraryClasses]=0D=0D DebugLib=0D=0D IoLib=0D=0D + PciLib=0D=0D TimerLib=0D=0D Note "=0D=0D". Your other (recent) patches, - [edk2-devel] [PATCH v2] OvmfPkg/XenBusDxe: Close XenIoProtocol openned by children - [edk2-devel] [PATCH] OvmfPkg/XenBusDxe: Don't call DisconnectController in Stop() had the same problem; I had to use "--ignore-whitespace" with git-am, to apply them. Now, if I try to apply this full set with git-am like that, the first patch in the series applies, but the second still fails: > error: corrupt patch at line 23 > Patch failed at 0002 OvmfPkg: Create platform OvmfXen Based on the email headers, the "iphmx.com" references suggest (via a google search) "Cisco's Ironport Cloud email service". I think that email service (MTA) is broken. I decoded your emails (from quoted-printable to 8-bit plaintext), removed the "Content-Transfer-Encoding" lines, and replaced '\r\r' with '\r'. This way, git-am completed (with some "new blank line at EOF" warnings). Applying the "processed" patches on top of commit a7c7d21ffa9a, the resultant tree is identical to your tree at "br.platform-xen-pvh-v3" branch (commit e8795d185875). In addition, I ran $ git range-diff a7c7d21ffa9a \ xen_pvh_anthony_v3 \ xen_pvh_anthony_v3_from_email and the only differences reported by that command were the "Message-Id" tags appended to the commit messages by my "git-am" invocation. (I have "am.messageid" set to to "true".) I like to perform this sanity check when a patch series doesn't apply as-is (without local tweaking) from the list, but there is a remote topic branch to fetch (i.e. when there are two things I can compare). So in this case, the sanity check passed fine; I can now look at the patches themselves. If you could use a different MTA (or get the current one fixed), that would be helpful. (Yes, yes: if the edk2 project didn't use CRLF line terminators, that would be *even more* helpful.) Thanks Laszlo

(Yes, yes: if the edk2 project didn't use CRLF line > terminators, that would be *even more* helpful.) I'm not sure that using a different MTA is going to help. I don't think I can find a patch on the list that I can apply (without using unix2dos). I did send a patch to my gmail address, and it looks fine (=0D in the expected places and nowhere else). So maybe when a patch is sent through a mailing list, some more formating is done? Anyway, can I try sending patch encoded in base64 instead of quoted-printable? That would probably work better. I found <20190704040731.5303-1-glin@suse.com> on the list that is base64 encoded, that I can easily apply and patchew too.

That patch ("[edk2-devel] [PATCH v2] OvmfPkg: use DxeTpmMeasurementLib if and only if TPM2_ENABLE") worked fine for me as well. However, Gary confirmed elsewhere that he had to tweak the posting process manually, for that patch: http://mid.mail-archive.com/20190704085826.GD32340@GaryWorkstation Thanks Laszlo
