Reviewed-by = I am familiar with this code, and I have carefully looked over your change and am fairly sure that it will work properly Acked-by = I glanced at the change and it seems reasonable OR I looked carefully at the change, but am not overly familiar with the surrounding code At least that's how I've been using them. I believe in linux-kernel convention, Reviewed-by has little significance beyond documentation, and Acked-by is to note that maintainer A is OK with maintainer B merging code belonging to maintainer A's area. -ilia _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
