002 List of maintainers and how to submit kernel changes
003
004 Please try to follow the guidelines below. This will make things
005 easier on the maintainers. Not all of these guidelines matter for every
006 trivial patch so apply some common sense.
007
008 1. Always _test_ your changes, however small, on at least 4 or
009 5 people, preferably many more.
010
011 2. Try to release a few ALPHA test versions to the net. Announce
012 them onto the kernel channel and await results. This is especially
013 important for device drivers, because often that's the only way
014 you will find things like the fact version 3 firmware needs
015 a magic fix you didn't know about, or some clown changed the
016 chips on a board and not its name. (Don't laugh! Look at the
017 SMC etherpower for that.)
018
019 3. Make sure your changes compile correctly in multiple
020 configurations. In particular check that changes work both as a
021 module and built into the kernel.
022
023 4. When you are happy with a change make it generally available for
024 testing and await feedback.
025
026 5. Make a patch available to the relevant maintainer in the list. Use
027 'diff -u' to make the patch easy to merge. Be prepared to get your
028 changes sent back with seemingly silly requests about formatting
029 and variable names. These aren't as silly as they seem. One
030 job the maintainers (and especially Linus) do is to keep things
031 looking the same. Sometimes this means that the clever hack in
032 your driver to get around a problem actually needs to become a
033 generalized kernel feature ready for next time.
034
035 PLEASE check your patch with the automated style checker
036 (scripts/checkpatch.pl) to catch trival style violations.
037 See Documentation/CodingStyle for guidance here.
038
039 PLEASE try to include any credit lines you want added with the
040 patch. It avoids people being missed off by mistake and makes
041 it easier to know who wants adding and who doesn't.
042
043 PLEASE document known bugs. If it doesn't work for everything
044 or does something very odd once a month document it.
045
046 PLEASE remember that submissions must be made under the terms
047 of the OSDL certificate of contribution and should include a
048 Signed-off-by: line. The current version of this "Developer's
049 Certificate of Origin" (DCO) is listed in the file
050 Documentation/SubmittingPatches.
051
052 6. Make sure you have the right to send any changes you make. If you
053 do changes at work you may find your employer owns the patch
054 not you.
055
056 7. When sending security related changes or reports to a maintainer
057 please Cc: security@kernel.org, especially if the maintainer
058 does not respond.
059
060 8. Happy hacking.

064 Maintainers List (try to look for most precise areas first)
065
066 Note: For the hard of thinking, this list is meant to remain in alphabetical
067 order. If you could add yourselves to it in alphabetical order that would be
068 so much easier [Ed]
069
070 P: Person
071 M: Mail patches to
072 L: Mailing list that is relevant to this area
073 W: Web-page with status/info
074 T: SCM tree type and location. Type is one of: git, hg, quilt.
075 S: Status, one of the following:
076
077 Supported: Someone is actually paid to look after this.
078 Maintained: Someone actually looks after it.
079 Odd Fixes: It has a maintainer but they don't have time to do
080 much other than throw the odd patch in. See below..
081 Orphan: No current maintainer [but maybe you could take the
082 role as you write your new code].
083 Obsolete: Old code. Something tagged obsolete generally means
084 it has been replaced by a better system and you
085 should be using that.
