Sorry to hear, and thanks for letting us know. For a long while now, the committers (the group called The Rest in maintainer) have been operating as if this was an R rather than an M. It turns out that most changes technically touching PPC are common/arch rearrangements, or common things that need a copy in all arches, or comments fixes/etc. We've been putting these in without a PPC ack, so as not to block work in other area. Obviously, anything that is PPC specific waits for input. If you're not aware, we do have some PPC64 build jobs and one QEMU boot test in CI running on every commit. e.g. https://gitlab.com/xen-project/hardware/xen/-/pipelines/2127184050 Would you mind changing to R to reflect how things are working in practice? Also, we're in code freeze for the Xen 4.21 release right now. This patch will be fine, with a SoB, but the others will have to wait until 4.22 opens. Thanks, ~Andrew
