However, there's still one thing left: MAINTAINERS. The patch submitters tips, IMO, need some work. Here's my notes: * Nowadays most drivers (especially on embedded architectures like Arm) were initially developed out-of-tree, then follows mainline inclusion process But the second item read "Try to release a few ALPHA test versions to the net. Announce them onto the kernel channel and await results". These drivers were submitted not as ALPHA-grade, but near-production grade. * The fifth item mentioned using `diff -u` to generate patches, however since 9f364b605f34e1 ("submitting-patches.rst: presume git will be used"), the documentation elsewhere assumed git would be used. Thanks. -- An old man doll... just what I always wanted! - Clara
