compat-drivers linux-next-pending patches
 | 
						|
==========================================
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You must have a really good reason to be adding files
 | 
						|
in this directory. The requirement is your patches must have
 | 
						|
been posted to a public mailing list for the subsystem you are
 | 
						|
working on. Each patch you add here must have a really good
 | 
						|
explanation on the top of the file which clarifies why the
 | 
						|
patch has not yet been merged OR specify it on the commit log
 | 
						|
when you add it on compat-drivers.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
We try to avoid having patch files because but we understand
 | 
						|
if you might because you need to test code posted but not yet
 | 
						|
merged into linux-next or a stable kernel release. This can happen
 | 
						|
often during the merge window, when the maintainers are unavailable,
 | 
						|
on vacation, suck at what they do, or for any other uncontrollable
 | 
						|
reasons.
