I truly admire your leadership and contributions. I hope you'll stay connected with the community, even with less time pressure. Perhaps, when your time permits, you might consider returning and taking on a role again. Some day. (The patch was addressed to Kees, so I will not touch it. I think he will pick it up.)

May it be a cold day in hell when that changes. Of course, I can understand these 3+ years of working on both sides - Linux kernel and LLVM toolchain - might be very time-consuming and hopefully with positive stress. Best luck and more for the new challenges! ...and thanks Google jumped into it. Thanks for inviting and participating in the First Meetup of ClangBuiltLinux in Zurich - February 2020. I see your slogan "Share Knowledge Aggressively" as a life motto :-). Thanks and more. Best regards, -Sedat-

As discussed at the ClangBuiltLinux '23 meetup (co-located with Linux Plumbers Conf '23), I'll be taking a step back from kernel work to focus on my growing family and helping Google figure out its libc story. So I think it's time to formally hand over the reigns to my co-maintainer Nathan. As such, remove myself from reviewer for: - CLANG CONTROL FLOW INTEGRITY SUPPORT - COMPILER ATTRIBUTES - KERNEL BUILD For CLANG/LLVM BUILD SUPPORT I'm bumping myself down from maintainer to reviewer, adding Bill and Justin, and removing Tom (Tom and I confirmed this via private email; thanks for the work done Tom, ++beers_owed). It has been my pleasure to work with everyone to improve the toolchain portability of the Linux kernel, and to help bring LLVM to the table as a competitor. The work here is not done. I have a few last LLVM patches in the works to improve stack usage of clang which has been our longest standing open issue (getting "rm" inline asm constraints to DTRT is part of that). But looking back I'm incredibly proud of where we are to today relative to where we were when we started the ClangBuiltLinux journey, and am confident that the team and processes we have put in place will continue to be successful. I continue to believe that a rising tide will lift all boats. I identify first and foremost as a Linux kernel developer, and an LLVM dev second. May it be a cold day in hell when that changes. Wake me when you need me.
