We don't always - and I'd say in terms of ARM it would be extremely rare. The sysfs API changes at the start of the last merge window is one example of this. I had everything nicely prepared in the ARM tree for merging shortly after the window opened, and then wham bam thankyou mam, the merge window opened and a lot ended up breaking. We know that the -mm tree is pretty much useless in terms of code coverage for ARM, and it's getting increasingly unlikely that anything short of a build of all ARM defconfigs will pick up on merge issues - which is a lot of CPU cycles, and I'm not going to insist its something that should be done. -- Russell King Linux kernel 2.6 ARM Linux - http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ maintainer of: -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
