I grew weary of looking up the appropriate maintainer email address(es) to CC: for a patch.
I added flags to the MAINTAINERS file F: file pattern for each maintained block and a script to parse the modified blocks for maintainer and list email addresses. perl scripts/get_maintainer.pl <patch> gives the appropriate maintainer(s). Please apply. cheers, Joe --- /dev/null 2007-08-10 07:32:20.684406250 -0700 +++ scripts/get_maintainer.pl 2007-08-11 22:33:30.000000000 -0700 @@ -0,0 +1,212 @@ +#!/usr/bin/perl -w +# (c) 2007, Joe Perches <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +# created from checkpatch.pl +# Licensed under the terms of the GNU GPL License version 2 + +use strict; + +my $P = $0; +$P =~ [EMAIL PROTECTED]/@@g; + +my $V = '0.01'; + +use Getopt::Long qw(:config no_auto_abbrev); + +my $tree = "./"; +my $email_maintainer = 1; +my $email_list = 1; +my $email_subscriber_list = 0; + +my %saw; + +GetOptions( + 'tree=s' => \$tree, + 'm!' => \$email_maintainer, + 'l!' => \$email_list, + 's!' => \$email_subscriber_list, + ) or exit; + +my $exit = 0; + +if ($#ARGV < 0 || + ($email_maintainer == 0 && $email_list == 0 && $email_subscriber_list == 0)) { + print "usage: $P [options] patchfile\n"; + print "version: $V\n"; + print " --tree [path] => linux kernel source path\n"; + print " --m => include maintainer(s) if any\n"; + print " --l => include list(s) if any\n"; + print " --s => include subscriber only list(s) if any\n"; + print "Default: [--m --l]\n"; + print "Be sure to select something...\n"; + exit(1); +} + +if ($tree && !top_of_kernel_tree($tree)) { + if (${tree} ne "") { + print "'${tree}' "; + } else { + print "The current directory "; + } + print "doesn't appear to be a linux kernel source tree\n"; + exit(2); +} + +## Read MAINTAINERS for type/value pairs + +my @typevalue = (); +open(MAINT, "<${tree}MAINTAINERS") || die "$P: Can't open ${tree}MAINTAINERS\n"; +while (<MAINT>) { + if (m/^(\C):\s*(.*)/) { + my $type = $1; + my $value = $2; + if ($type eq "F") { ##Filename pattern matching + $value =~ [EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]; ##Convert . to \. + $value =~ s/\*/\.\*/g; ##Convert * to .* + } + push(@typevalue, "$type:$value"); + } elsif (!/^(\s)*$/) { + push(@typevalue, $_); + } +} +close(MAINT); + +## Find the patched filenames + +my @patchedfiles = (); +open(PATCH, "<$ARGV[0]") or die "Can't open $ARGV[0]\n"; +while (<PATCH>) { + if (m/^\+\+\+\s+(\S+)/) { + my $file = $1; + $file =~ [EMAIL PROTECTED]/]*/@@; + $file =~ [EMAIL PROTECTED]@@; + push(@patchedfiles, $file); + } +} +close(PATCH); + +# Sort and uniq patchedfiles + +undef %saw; [EMAIL PROTECTED] = sort @patchedfiles; [EMAIL PROTECTED] = grep(!$saw{$_}++, @patchedfiles); + +# Find responsible parties + +my @email_to = (); +foreach (@patchedfiles) { + my $patchedfile = $_; + my $tvi = 0; + + foreach (@typevalue) { + if (m/^(\C):(.*)/) { + my $type = $1; + my $value = $2; + if ($type eq 'F') { + if (file_match_pattern($patchedfile, $value)) { + my $ptvi = $tvi - 1; + while ($ptvi >= 0) { + my $tv = $typevalue[$ptvi]; + if ($tv =~ m/^(\C):(.*)/) { + my $ptype = $1; + my $pvalue = $2; + if ($ptype eq "L") { + my $subscr = $pvalue; + if ($subscr =~ m/\s*\(subscribers-only\)/) { + if ($email_subscriber_list > 0) { + $subscr =~ s/\s*\(subscribers-only\)//g; + push(@email_to, $subscr); + } + } else { + if ($email_list > 0) { + push(@email_to, $pvalue); + } + } + } elsif ($ptype eq "M") { + if ($email_maintainer > 0) { + if ($ptvi >= 0) { + my $tv = $typevalue[$ptvi - 1]; + if ($tv =~ m/^(\C):(.*)/) { + if ($1 eq "P") { + push(@email_to, "$2 <$pvalue>"); + } else { + push(@email_to, $pvalue); + } + } + } else { + push(@email_to, $pvalue); + } + } + } + $ptvi--; + } else { + $ptvi = -1; + } + } + } + } + } + $tvi++; + } +} + +## sort and uniq email_to + [EMAIL PROTECTED] = sort @email_to; +undef %saw; [EMAIL PROTECTED] = grep(!$saw{$_}++, @email_to); + +## add lk if noone else... + +my $address_cnt = @email_to; +if ($address_cnt == 0 && $email_list > 0) { + push(@email_to, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"); +} +print(join(", ", @email_to)); +print("\n"); + +exit($exit); + +sub file_match_pattern { + my ($file, $pattern) = @_; + if (substr($pattern, -1) eq "/") { + if ($file =~ [EMAIL PROTECTED]@) { + return 1; + } + } else { + if ($file =~ [EMAIL PROTECTED]@) { + my $s1 = ($file =~ tr@/@@); + my $s2 = ($pattern =~ tr@/@@); + if ($s1 == $s2) { + return 1; + } + } + } + return 0; +} + +sub top_of_kernel_tree { + my ($tree) = @_; + + if ($tree ne "" && substr($tree,length($tree)-1,1) ne "/") { + $tree = $tree .
