2014-07-08scripts: Teach get_maintainer.pl about the new "R:" tagJoe Perches1-1/+21
We can now designate reviewers in the MAINTAINERS file with the new "R:" tag, so this commit teaches get_maintainers.pl to add their email addresses. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2014-02-10get_maintainer: fix detection of git repositoryRichard Genoud1-1/+1
Since git v1.7.7, the .git directory can be a file when, for example, the kernel is a submodule of another git super project. So, the check "-d .git" is not working anymore in this case. Using a more generic check like "-e .git" corrects this behaviour.

2014-01-23get_maintainer: add commit author information to --rolestatsJoe Perches1-6/+85
get_maintainer currently uses "Signed-off-by" style lines to find interested parties to send patches to when the MAINTAINERS file does not have a specific section entry with a matching file pattern. Add statistics for commit authors and lines added and deleted to the information provided by --rolestats. These statistics are also emitted whenever --rolestats and --git are selected even when there is a specified maintainer. This can have the effect of expanding the number of people that are shown as possible "maintainers" of a particular file because "authors", "added_lines", and "removed_lines" are also used as criterion for the --max-maintainers option separate from the "commit_signers". The first "--git-max-maintainers" values of each criterion are emitted. Any "ties" are not shown. For example: (forcedeth does not have a named maintainer) Old output: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/nvidia/forcedeth.c "David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net> (commit_signer:8/10=80%) Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> (commit_signer:2/10=20%) Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> (commit_signer:2/10=20%) Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> (commit_signer:1/10=10%) Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> (commit_signer:1/10=10%) netdev@vger.kernel.org (open list:NETWORKING DRIVERS) linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list) New output: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/nvidia/forcedeth.c "David S.

2013-04-29get_maintainer: use filename-only regex match for TegraStephen Warren1-1/+1
Create a new N: entry type in MAINTAINERS which performs a regex match against filenames; either those extracted from patch +++ or --- lines, or those specified on the command-line using the -f option. This provides the same benefits as using a K: regex option to match a set of filenames (see commit eb90d0855b75 "get_maintainer: allow keywords to match filenames"), but without the disadvantage that "random" file content, such as comments, will ever match the regex. Hence, revert most of that commit.

2013-02-27get_maintainer: allow keywords to match filenamesStephen Warren1-0/+4
Allow K: entries in MAINTAINERS to match directly against filenames; either those extracted from patch +++ or --- lines, or those specified on the command-line using the -f option. This potentially allows fewer lines in a MAINTAINERS entry, if all the relevant files are scattered throughout the whole kernel tree, yet contain some common keyword. An example would be using an ARM SoC name as the keyword to catch all related drivers. I don't think setting exact_pattern_match_hash would be appropriate here; at least for intended Tegra use case, this feature is to ensure that all Tegra-related driver changes get Cc'd to the Tegra mailing list. Setting exact_pattern_match_hash would prevent git history parsing for e.g. S-o-b tags, which still seems like it would be useful. Hence, this flag isn't set.

I happen to have had a commit to various network drivers since the big renaming/reorg which happened to drivers/net recently. This means that I now appear to be in the top few commit signers (by %age) for many of them so am getting sent all sorts of stuff and people who are involved with the driver are not. e.g. (to pick one at random): $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/nvidia/forcedeth.c "David S.

Adding commit signers when there is a listed MAINTAINER for a file can make the output list longer than necessary. Change the --git default from on to off. Add a new --git-fallback option (default on) used to add commit signers only when there is no MAINTAINER for a file. git history is used when --git-fallback is enabled and the pattern directory depth is not the same as the file directory depth.

2010-05-25scripts/get_maintainer.pl: default to not include unspecified tagsFlorian Mickler1-1/+1
This changes the default of the option --git-all-signature-types to be disabled by default. The effect being, that only certain (currently Signed-Off-By:, Acked-by: and Reviewed-By:) tags are used to get adresses of potential maintainers. Motivated is this change by the desire to not 'spam' people unnecessary: A Tested-By or a Reported-By is not ment as a hint that those people want to/are able to review patches to the code in question. In a quest to find resilient statistics for this i came up with this: I produced a list of all the tag-signers not already covered with a signed-off/acked/reviewed tag somewhere in the last year of git history. Those were 650 addresses of "assumed non-developers". And to check if those "assumed non-developers" are professional testers/reporters worth cc'ing, i then counted their total appearences in the git log: 469 were mentioned only once. 123 were mentioned twice. 38 three times 8 four times 5 six times 5 five times 1 eight times 1 fourteen times I believe this supports my thesis, that the ''non-maintainer-tags'' are not actively useful for patch-review. (except probably the guy mentioned fourteen times...) But of course one could also find arguments to poke holes in this statistics, for example does this statistic not include code-locality: A tested-by on a patch that touches some specific piece of code can be more worth than a signed-off in another part of the tree. But... let's play it safe and let's err on the "safe" side meaning to not spam those people when in doubt. We already have the signed-off's and Maintainers file. So this should be ok. And if need be, the maintainers can always forward the patch.

This patch allows get_maintainers to optionally restrict output to only signatures that use Signed-off-by:, Acked-by:, or Reviewed-by:. Signed-off-by: is included because those are people who are responsible for the code. Acked-by: is questionable, but as signers that use this tag tend to be active linux gatekeepers, false positives are tolerable. Reviewed-by: is included because signers responsible for the code thought that the review feedback for a changeset by that signer was valuable. This patch has been modified from Florian's original submission to change the supported signature types to the canonical forms and use slightly different spacing. A couple of spacing issues were also corrected in the original source. The command line argument was also renamed.

2010-03-06scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --file-emails, find embedded email addressesJoe Perches1-7/+76
Add an imperfect option to search a source file for email addresses. New option: --file-emails or --fe email addresses in files are freeform text and are nearly impossible to parse. Still, might as well try to do a somewhat acceptable job of finding them. This code should find all addresses that are in the form addr@domain.tld The code assumes that up to 3 alphabetic words along with dashes, commas, and periods that preceed the email address are a name. If 3 words are found for the name, and one of the first two words are a single letter and period, or just a single letter then the 3 words are use as name otherwise the last 2 words are used. Some variants that are shown correctly: John Smith <jksmith@domain.org> Random J. Developer <rjd@tld.com> Random J. Developer (rjd@tld.com) J. Random Developer rjd@tld.com Variants that are shown nominally correctly: Written by First Last (funny-addr@somecompany.com) is shown as: First Last <funny-addr@somecompany.com> Variants that are shown incorrectly: Some Really Long Name <srln@foo.bar> MontaVista Software, Inc. <source@mvista.com> are returned as: Long Name <srln@foo.bar> "Software, Inc" <source@mvista.com> --roles and --rolestats show "(in file)" for matches. For instance: Without -file-emails: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f -nogit -roles net/core/netpoll.c David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> (maintainer:NETWORKING [GENERAL]) linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list) With -fe: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f -fe -nogit -roles net/core/netpoll.c David S.

And a couple of improvements: Don't alphabetically sort before outputting the matched scm, status, subsystem and web sections.
