+Q: How do I post corresponding changes to user space components?
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+A: User space code exercising kernel features should be posted
+alongside kernel patches. This gives reviewers a chance to see
+how any new interface is used and how well it works.
+
+When user space tools reside in the kernel repo itself all changes
+should generally come as one series. If series becomes too large
+or the user space project is not reviewed on netdev include a link
+to a public repo where user space patches can be seen.
+
+In case user space tooling lives in a separate repository but is
+reviewed on netdev (e.g. patches to `iproute2` tools) kernel and
+user space patches should form separate series (threads) when posted
+to the mailing list, e.g.::
+
+ [PATCH net-next 0/3] net: some feature cover letter
+ └─ [PATCH net-next 1/3] net: some feature prep
+ └─ [PATCH net-next 2/3] net: some feature do it
+ └─ [PATCH net-next 3/3] selftest: net: some feature
+
+ [PATCH iproute2-next] ip: add support for some feature

+Posting as one thread is discouraged because it confuses patchwork
