I have been receiving a lot of AI generated issues similar to these on the
Squashfs-tools code and the Squashfs kernel code over the last month.
I have not been idle and ignoring them, and I have been spent the last
couple of weeks fixing them full-time in the Squashfs-tools code, and
the kernel code.
In the Squashfs-tools code I have reviewed about 20,000 lines of code so
far, and this has generated over 50 commits. These commits I have
committed to the Squashfs-tools git-hub repository here
https://github.com/plougher/squashfs-tools
I am also most of the way through reviewing the Squashfs kernel code, it
is about 70% complete. So far it has generated 12 patches, and there
will be more. Obviously the kernel patches are queued up for a posting
next week.
So I am not asleep at the wheel here, I know about them and I am
addressing them.
