lkml@ = linux kernel mailing list aka linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I think you will find the answers of all your questions here:
http://kernelnewbies.org/UpstreamMerge
If you are looking for the recipients of your patches, IMO you should send:
To: Paul Menage
Cc: linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Cc: containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
cf MAINTENERS file:
CONTROL GROUPS (CGROUPS)
P: Paul Menage
M: menage@xxxxxxxxxx
L: containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
S: Maintained
