Hello list,
I am looking for some tips on starting as a kernel janitor, and I was
hoping to find out the general work flow that people use. From what I
can tell, we search through the kernel-next git repo, then either by
grep, ctags, or some other method? We are looking for things in the
KernelJanitors/Todo, possibly stuff turned up by sparse? Maybe a
different static analyser like from clang?
From there we make sure the patch applys cleanly and mail the
maintainer, copying the LKML and Kernel-Janitors?
Are there any recommended tutorials / Articles that google doesn't turn up?
