Hello, If you are wondering what would be interesting to work on, you can consider: drivers/staging/gpib drivers/staging/rtl8723bs drivers/staging/vme_user For all of these, you can find a number of cleanup opportunities with checkpatch. Remember though that checkpatch is just offering suggestions. You need to decide whether what it highlights is a real problem. For this it may be helpful to look at other similar kernel code. Sometimes it may be clear that what checkpatch is complaining about is indeed likely a problem, but it's not clear what to do about it. At this point, the goal is to learn how to submit patches, write a good commit message, etc. So don't hesitate to make change that seem quite trivial to get started. Let me know if you have any questions. julia
