This is the friendly patch-bot of Lorenzo Stoakes.
You have sent him a patch/series that has triggered this response.
He used to manually respond to these common problems, but in order to save
his sanity (he kept writing the same thing over and over, yet to different
people), I was created.
Hopefully you will not take offence and will fix the problem in your patch
and resubmit it so that it can be accepted into the Linux kernel tree.
When sending emails to mm:
For one of several possible reasons this mail has triggered an AI
detector script.
Thank you for using the Assisted-by tag to acknowledge this.
However, please do note the policy at
https://docs.kernel.org/process/generated-content.html most notably:
If tools permit you to generate a contribution automatically, expect
additional scrutiny in proportion to how much of it was generated.
As with the output of any tooling, the result may be incorrect or
inappropriate. You are expected to understand and to be able to
defend everything you submit. If you are unable to do so, then do
not submit the resulting changes.
If you do so anyway, maintainers are entitled to reject your series
without detailed review.
This change is significant, and you are a relative newcomer to mm. As a
result, I must ask that you provide some details as to how you solved this
problem and your overall understanding of these changes and mm as a whole.
In general, if you are a newcomer to mm, we expect you to do smaller work
before moving on to larger changes, so you build understanding of both the
technical aspects of mm and how we do things.
If you wish to discuss this problem further, or you have questions about
how to resolve this issue, please feel free to respond to this email and
Lorenzo will reply once he has dug out from the pending patches received
from other developers.
thanks,
