[meta-freescale] Where to submit kernel patches for Freescale kernel?

[Lauren Post]

I do check patches in the Linux-imx recipes in meta-fsl-arm and see if they can get applied into next release so my recommendation is to get them first into meta-fsl-arm.

I can’t guarantee it will get in.  It does depend on the timing of our BSP releases if they can make it in or not.  In a few cases our kernel developers don’t agree with the patch because they don’t believe the fix is correct or is comprehensive but many times the patch is integrated into the next release.

You are also welcome to upstream into the mainstream kernel.  We update usually once a year to the next LTS kernel version.

Thanks,
Lauren

Hi All,

I've been working on a project that is using an iMX6. I've made a few bug fixes to the kernel and I want to submit them upstream. I wasn't sure the right place to do this. Ultimately it would be nice to get them into mainline, but for now it would be good to get them included in the Freescale maintained kernel. Is this list the right place and if so what are the guidelines for submission. If this list isn't the right place could you point me in the right direction.

Thanks,
~Matt
