For st7789v ic,when we need continuous full screen
refresh, it is best to wait for the TE signal arrive to
avoid screen tearing

Please slow down and wait at least a day between patch
submissions, there is no rush here.

And also, ALWAYS run scripts/checkpatch.pl on your
submissions, so that you don't have a maintainer asking
you about basic problems, like are in this current patch
:(

thanks,

hi,
  This is my first patch contribution to Linux, so some of
the rules are not very clear .In addition, I can confirm
that before sending patch, I check it with checkPatch.py
every time.Thank you very much for your help    

Please read Documentation/SubmittingPatches which has a link
to the checklist and other documentation you should read.

And I doubt you are running checkpatch on your submission, as
there is obvious coding style issues in it.  If so, please
provide the output as it must be broken :(

thanks,

greg k-h  

hi, the patch v11 checkpatch.pl output is below:

carlis@bf-rmsz-10:~/work/linux-kernel/linux$
./scripts/checkpatch.pl
0001-staging-fbtft-add-tearing-signal-detect.patch total: 0
errors, 0 warnings, 0 checks, 176 lines checked

0001-staging-fbtft-add-tearing-signal-detect.patch has no
obvious style problems and is ready for submission.  

Wow, my apologies!

Andy and Joe, there's something wrong here that is missing the
fact that a line is being indented with spaces and not tabs in
the patch at
https://lore.kernel.org/r/1611754972-151016-1-git-send-email-zhangxuezhi3@gmail.com (local)

Any ideas what broke?
  

    /*Tearing Effect Line On*/

Comments are the exception to the "no spaces at the start of a line"
rule.  I was expecting that the kbuild-bot would send a Smatch
warning for inconsistent indenting, but comments are not counted
there either.

I'm sort of surprised that we don't have checkpatch rule about the
missing space characters.  It should be: "/* Tearing Effect Line On
*/".  

That was going to be my next question, lots of comments added in this
patch don't have spaces...

thanks,

greg k-h

Ok,i will fix it in patch v12 tomorrow
