Hi everyone.
I've been involved in a little discussion this morning about reporting
driver bugs. In the past, I've tended to point people directly to the
driver author, but I've learnt that the preferred thing is to get people
to open reports on bugzilla.kernel.org.
I'm therefore writing to ask if those of you who help with triage could
point people there as well.
Thanks, and thanks for all your help!
Nigel

Unfortunately there is no one right answer. Some driver maintainers
don't see the bugzilla.kernel.org entry at all; others find it useful
for tracking purposes.
At the very least, one should make sure the driver author is always CC'd
on initial bug reports.

I screen all bugzilla reports and ensure that each one gets to the appropriate developer, if there is one.

I tend to forget about bugzilla entries assigned to me. Can bugzilla
be configured to send reminder emails about open bugs every now and
again?
Best wishes,
Duncan.
