It's your responsibility to carry the tags you have got in the previous rounds of the review. Please, be respectful to the reviewers who spent a lot of time on yours, in particular, code. Otherwise why to bother with it (upstreaming) at all?

I wasn't actually aware that this is something I could do / am responsible for doing. No disrespect is intended, though I see how this would be frustrating for reviewers (I previously thought that maintainers used some sort of automated tool to keep track of who approved/acked what in previous versions, but didn't really know how that would work). If I'm understanding correctly, this means that whenever someone responds to my patch with a "Reviewed-by", etc.. I should be adding that tag to the end of the commit message of that patch if a future revision is needed? I assume this only applies on future revisions where patches other than the one initially reviewed are changed, and that any tags I take with should be dropped if that patch is changed? Apologies about these questions - - I looked for guidance on this in the various "submitting patches to the kernel" guides out there, and wasn't able to find much. Thanks, Danny Kaehn

It's works only in the case if you have no more comments to address. Indeed, `b4` tool may harvest tags from emails. However, if you by your own initiative send a new version, to address or change something, you need to take into account what was done in the previous rounds of review. If you consider that tag can't be applied — too many changes that doesn't match the code to the previous version(s), — you should express why in the cover letter. > If I'm understanding correctly, this means that whenever someone > responds to my patch with a "Reviewed-by", etc..

It does not require anything special (permissions, status, access, etc). > I assume this only applies on future revisions > where patches other than the one initially reviewed are changed, and > that any tags I take with should be dropped if that patch is changed? Depends on how big they are. In most cases the changes are not so drastically big, so tags survive them. > Apologies about these questions - - I looked for guidance on this in > the various "submitting patches to the kernel" guides out there, and > wasn't able to find much. Understood. Now we will wait for v8 where you fix the mistakes. Thank you for your patience and contribution!
