A. Take the latest kernel patch (i. e. 2.6.21.1) as an example.
B. format is as follows:
--- a/(file to be changed)
+++ b/(file to be changed)
@@ -(starting line number),(total number of lines starting from the beginning 
line before the change) +(starting line number),(total number of lines 
starting from the beginning line after the change)
(3 context lines starting with a space)
(additions start with plus)
(deletions start with minus)
(3 context lines starting with a space)

If this explanation still is too abstract, have a look at the example again.
Don't forget to test the patch!
No fuzz factors, no rejections please.
For testing purposes keep the original file to be patched in a separate 
directory please.
Now please give it a try - for sure you gonna make it!
