4 The intention of this file is not to establish who owns what portions of the
5 code base, but to provide a set of names that developers can consult when they
6 have a question about a particular subset and also to provide a set of names
7 to be CC'd when submitting a patch to obtain appropriate review.
9 In general, if you have a question about inclusion of a patch, you should
10 consult qemu-devel and not any specific individual privately.
12 Descriptions of section entries:
14 M: Mail patches to: FullName <address@domain>
15 L: Mailing list that is relevant to this area
16 W: Web-page with status/info
17 Q: Patchwork web based patch tracking system site
18 T: SCM tree type and location. Type is one of: git, hg, quilt, stgit.
19 S: Status, one of the following:
20 Supported: Someone is actually paid to look after this.
21 Maintained: Someone actually looks after it.
22 Odd Fixes: It has a maintainer but they don't have time to do
23 much other than throw the odd patch in. See below..
24 Orphan: No current maintainer [but maybe you could take the
25 role as you write your new code].
26 Obsolete: Old code. Something tagged obsolete generally means
27 it has been replaced by a better system and you
29 F: Files and directories with wildcard patterns.
30 A trailing slash includes all files and subdirectory files.
31 F: drivers/net/ all files in and below drivers/net
32 F: drivers/net/* all files in drivers/net, but not below
33 F: */net/* all files in "any top level directory"/net
34 One pattern per line. Multiple F: lines acceptable.
35 X: Files and directories that are NOT maintained, same rules as F:
36 Files exclusions are tested before file matches.
37 Can be useful for excluding a specific subdirectory, for instance:
40 matches all files in and below net excluding net/ipv6/
41 K: Keyword perl extended regex pattern to match content in a
42 patch or file. For instance:
44 matches patches or files that contain "of_get_profile"
45 K: \b(printk|pr_(info|err))\b
46 matches patches or files that contain one or more of the words
47 printk, pr_info or pr_err
48 One regex pattern per line. Multiple K: lines acceptable.
