I just fixed a bug in kernel. How can I contribute it?
My base version is Linux kernel 3.9.6. Should I download the latest
kernel and check whether it has been fixed?

Thank you and Best Regards,
Tim Wei

Any patch going upstream should probably be based on bluetooth-next:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/bluetooth/bluetooth-next.git/

Patches are expected to be send via git commit -s <try to be as
descriptive as possible in the commit message> + git format-patch +
git send-email like any other kernel patch and please be patient
sometimes the patches takes a while to be reviewed because the
maintainers are busy.

Can any one tell me what the most effective way to contribute code? I
have tried submitting a patch once before but no one responded.
