Hi,
I have a patch ready to send which contains a new UFS driver, but the problem is that the patch size is ~200K and my company' email security blocks it. Is it possible to send the driver in a tarball?

Thanks,
Joao

The usual practise in this case is to split it into patches per file (I assume it's broken down into a few separate files to implement different bits of functionality) sending the bits that link it into the build system (Kconfig and Makefiles) last.

Alternatively, if you have a non-work account, you could send it through that with appropriate From headers at the top of the email.

Thanks,
