Procedure for submitting patches to the -stable tree
----------------------------------------------------
- - If the patch covers files in net/ or drivers/net please follow netdev stable
- submission guidelines as described in
- :ref:`Documentation/networking/netdev-FAQ.rst <netdev-FAQ>`
- after first checking the stable networking queue at
- https://patchwork.kernel.org/bundle/netdev/stable/?state=*
- to ensure the requested patch is not already queued up.
- Security patches should not be handled (solely) by the -stable review
process but should follow the procedures in
:ref:`Documentation/admin-guide/security-bugs.rst <securitybugs>`.
