The code of conduct explicitly doesn't require this. It says: Contributions submitted for the kernel should use appropriate language. Content that already exists predating the Code of Conduct will not be addressed now as a violation. However, I assume you're thinking about the next sentence: Inappropriate language can be seen as a bug, though; such bugs will be fixed more quickly if any interested parties submit patches to that effect. ? I would interpret the above comment as simply an expression of frustration directed by the author at some of the endian problems drivers like this bring. Since it's not directed at anything other than hardware I don't think it could be seen as threatening or abusive or contributing to a negative environment even if submitted today. For better or for worse, the word "fuck", which was once seen as so beyond the pale that only loose tongued individuals like monty python could get away with it (The great John Cleese use of the word fuck at a funeral [Eric Chapman's] springing immediately to mind), has now moved into the TV primetime mainstream and it's not our job to try and reimpose language decency on the world.
