Hi Ajit, Commit title doesn't explain "why" but explains what has been done. It is easier to see "what" part from code but not easy to see "why" without explanation. Here commit log explain the reason and scope, only title doesn't reflect it. Title can be something like "fix firmware error" ... Please check patches with "check-git-log.sh", it will already complain about title, script complains about "_" to force explaining "why" instead of using variable/function names. Previous set you have sent has same problem, they are already in next-net but if you have bandwidth can you please check them too? If you can send revised commit log/title I can update them. "check-git-log.sh" will help to find failing ones. <...> > @@ -594,7 +590,7 @@ static int bnxt_dev_start_op(struct rte_eth_dev *eth_dev) > } > bp->dev_stopped = 0; > > - rc = bnxt_init_nic(bp); > + rc = bnxt_init_chip(bp); Is this bnxt_init_nic()/bnxt_init_chip() changes related to what has been described in commit log? If so can you explain in commit log why there are related?
