19 In addition to explaining how to apply and revert patches, a brief
21 their specific patches) is also provided.
144 If you don't have any third-party patches applied to your kernel source, but
145 only patches from kernel.org and you apply the patches in the correct order,
157 in the wrong directory. Less often, you'll find patches that need to be
203 So if you get these errors with kernel.org patches then you should probably
216 generate a patch representing the differences between two patches and then
220 step. The -z flag to interdiff will even let you feed it patches in gzip or
232 downloading and applying of patches (http://www.selenic.com/ketchup/).
241 Where can I download the patches?
244 The patches are available at http://kernel.org/
245 Most recent patches are linked from the front page, but they also have
248 The 4.x.y (-stable) and 4.x patches live at
252 The -rc patches live at
269 that such patches do **NOT** apply on top of 4.x.y kernels but on top of the
308 The -stable team usually do make incremental patches available as well
309 as patches against the latest mainline release, but I only cover the
313 These patches are not incremental, meaning that for example the 4.7.3
346 The -rc patches are not incremental, they apply to a base 4.x kernel, just
347 like the 4.x.y patches described above. The kernel version before the -rcN
354 Here are 3 examples of how to apply these patches::
380 The -mm patches and the linux-next tree
383 The -mm patches are experimental patches released by Andrew Morton.
385 In the past, -mm tree were used to also test subsystem patches, but this
388 tree. The Subsystem maintainers push their patches first to linux-next,
391 The -mm patches serve as a sort of proving ground for new features and other
392 experimental patches that aren't merged via a subsystem tree.
393 Once such patches has proved its worth in -mm for a while Andrew pushes
396 The linux-next tree is daily updated, and includes the -mm patches.
398 lot of debugging patches not appropriate for mainline etc., and is the most
401 These patches are not appropriate for use on systems that are supposed to be
404 even more so for -mm patches or using a Kernel from the linux-next tree).
406 Testing of -mm patches and linux-next is greatly appreciated since the whole
416 I hope you are now clear on how to apply the various patches and help testing
