They aren't really specific to kernel development at all -- they can be used for any patches sent via mail. b4 (the tool used by many maintainers to retrieve patches from lists) will check patatt-style signatures (in addition to DKIM signatures) to help verify that the patches come from trusted sources and aren't someone pretending to be someone else.Yes, I was referring to patatt here, as linked by Konstantin's blog post above. It's part of the b4 tool (well, a git subproject in it), real link is at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/patatt/patatt.git
Thank you all for the info.It works like charm (I still need to learn b4(1), but patatt(1) is enough for me right now). :)
