We tend to reference back to how the kernel does things. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html These two sections in particular. 2) Describe your changes Describe your problem. Whether your patch is a one-line bug fix or 5000 lines of a new feature, there must be an underlying problem that motivated you to do this work. Convince the reviewer that there is a problem worth fixing and that it makes sense for them to read past the first paragraph. along with this section. 14) The canonical patch format This section describes how the patch itself should be formatted. Note that, if you have your patches stored in a |git| repository, proper patch formatting can be had with |git format-patch|. The tools cannot create the necessary text, though, so read the instructions below anyway. The canonical patch subject line is: Subject: [PATCH 001/123] subsystem: summary phrase The canonical patch message body contains the following: * A |from| line specifying the patch author, followed by an empty line (only needed if the person sending the patch is not the author). * The body of the explanation, line wrapped at 75 columns, which will be copied to the permanent changelog to describe this patch. * An empty line. * The |Signed-off-by:| lines, described above, which will also go in the changelog. * A marker line containing simply |---|. * Any additional comments not suitable for the changelog. * The actual patch (|diff| output). - Armin > > Cheers, > > Richard >
