Do we have an updated ToDo list for kernel janitors? The obvious starting point is to run checkpatch on the code. Do this only on staging drivers (drivers/staging) directory, and be sure to use common sense when interpreting the results. Once you feel comfortable with the patch submission process and your checkpatch patches mostly get a favorable response, you can try using other tools found in the scripts subdirectory. You can also look at what others have done, by looking through commits and mailing lists. But to start with, only work on the staging drivers. And read Documentation/SubmittingPatches documentation very carefully. julia > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
