How do I know if my patch was accepted?
Hi, I was able to send a tiny coding style error correction patch to the kernel mailing list. How do I find out whether my patch was accepted or not? How do I find out subsystem maintainers git tree for my patch (patch related to drivers/staging/vt6656/ )? Regards, Pj

If your patch gets accepted, you will be notified via email. You will also be told in the email which tree your patch got accepted into. Be patient. Maintainers are busy. Give it a week or two, and if you don't hear from them by then, send them a friendly reminder.

You did send your patch to the people listed when you ran scripts/get_maintainer.pl on it, right? If not, it's going to be ignored, please resend it with that information. thanks, greg k-h
