 +===== It missed some of my patches! ===== 
 + 
 +The bot is only able to recognize the patches that weren'​t significantly changed. If your patches were tweaked for variable naming, comments, whitespace, or other stylistic purposes, then the bot will no longer be able to make a reasonable match. 
 + 
 +====== Opt-in notifications for Next/​Mainline ====== 
 + 
 +:!: This is a beta feature 
 + 
 +If you would like to receive email notifications for when the patches you send to the LKML are applied to Next or Mainline, you can Cc your submissions to notify@kernel.org (or add a special X-Patchwork-Bot header)
 + 
 +  * The patches must be sent to the LKML (linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org) 
 +  * One of the cc's must be notify@kernel.org (Bcc will not work) 
 +  * Alternatively,​ there should be a "​X-Patchwork-Bot:​ notify"​ email header 
 +  * All patches in the series must be applied, not just some of them 
 +  * The patches must not have been significantly edited by the maintainer(s). 
 + 
 +There will be a single notification per each patch series, so if you send a series of 20 patches, you will get one notification in the form of a reply to the cover letter, or to the first patch in the series. The notification will be sent directly to you, ignoring any other addresses in the Cc field.
