Dear Kernel hackers, I've just sent out a patch for a proposal of an improvement of the cma allocator. Since I am not an experienced patch submitter, could someone maybe have a look at it before I submit it to the maintainers? I might have done formal errors (I've ran checkpatch and used git send-email but maybe I forgot something). Thanks a lot, - Johannes

If you ran checkpatch and it didn't complain, just give it a shot ;-) Cheers, Moritz

Hi johannes, I just tried this tutorial: https://kernelnewbies.org/FirstKernelPatch It is well written and covers everything. The only thing to change is the call to get_maintainer.pl The call should be done without the arguments so you'll get the correct mailing list to submit to. Good luck Baruch
