Email patches to the OpenSBI mailing list at `opensbi@lists.infradead.org` +2. GitHub Pull Requests (PRs) to the [OpenSBI main repository] + +To join the OpenSBI mailing list, please visit the [OpenSBI infradead page]. + +The OpenSBI maintainers prefer patches via the OpenSBI mailing list +(option 1 above) so that they are visible to a wider audience. All +accepted patches on the OpenSBI mailing list will be taken by any of +the OpenSBI maintainers and merged into the [OpenSBI main repository] +using GitHub PRs. + +All contributed work must follow the following rules: +1. OpenSBI code should be written in accordance to the [Linux coding style]. +2. This project embraces the [Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO)] for +contributions. This means that you must agree to the following prior to +submitting patches: if you agree with this developer certificate you +acknowledge this by adding a Signed-off-by tag to your patch commit log. +Every submitted patch must have this tag. +3. A commit message must have a subject line, followed by a blank line, +followed by a description of the patch content. A blank line and the author +Signed-off-by tag must follow this description. +4. A commit subject line must start with a prefix followed by a ":". Common +prefixes are for example "lib:", "platform:", "firmware:", "docs:", "utils:" +and "top:". +5. Maintainers should use "Rebase and Merge" when using GitHub to merge pull +requests to avoid creating unnecessary merge commits. +6. Maintainers should avoid creating branches directly in the main +riscv/opensbi repository. Instead prefer using a fork of the riscv/opensbi main +repository and branches within that fork to create pull requests. +7. A maintainer cannot merge his own pull requests in the riscv/opensbi main +repository. +8. A pull request must get at least one review from a maintainer. +9. A pull request must spend at least 24 hours in review to allow for other +developers to review. + +----------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Developer Certificate of Origin +Version 1.1 + +Copyright (C) 2004, 2006 The Linux Foundation and its contributors. +660 York Street, Suite 102, +San Francisco, CA 94110 USA + +Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this +license document, but changing it is not allowed. + + +Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1 + +By making a contribution to this project, I certify that: + +(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I + have the right to submit it under the open source license + indicated in the file; or + +(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best + of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source + license and I have the right under that license to submit that + work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part + by me, under the same open source license (unless I am + permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated + in the file; or + +(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other + person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified + it. + +(d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution + are public and that a record of the contribution (including all + personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is + maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with + this project or the open source license(s) involved. + +----------------------------------------------------------------------- + +[OpenSBI main repository]: https://github.com/riscv/opensbi +[OpenSBI infradead page]: http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/opensbi +[Linux coding style]: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.10/process/coding-style.html +[Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO)]: http://developercertificate.org/ |
