Hi all, I'm completely new to linux kernel development and I would like to make a very first contribution by "cleaning" some files. I noticed that the script checkpatch.pl (inside scripts/ folder) report lots of style errors on some drivers. For example try running ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --file drivers/video/*, you will notice that most of the files contain style issues. My questions are: Is people actively fixing this? Maybe they are not very interested on fixing this typos... Otherwise, could I contribute by submitting patches on this? And finally, if I do so, to who should I show this fixes? Thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
