General rules for patch submission, coding style and related details are available, but most subsystems have their subsystem-specific extra rules which differ or go beyond the common rules. Mark suggested to add a subsystem/maintainer handbook section, where subsystem maintainers can explain their specific quirks. Add the section and link to it from the submitting-patches document.

Working with the kernel development community
|
|
=============================================
|
|
|
|
So you want to be a Linux kernel developer? Welcome! While there is a lot
|
|
to be learned about the kernel in a technical sense, it is also important
|
|
to learn about how our community works. Reading these documents will make
|
|
it much easier for you to get your changes merged with a minimum of
|
|
trouble.
|
|
|
|
Below are the essential guides that every developer should read.
