 # alx standalone development tree

 The puropose of this development tree is to enable us to do development
 on alx for both BSD and Linux with a single unified repository. This enables
 us to synchronize fixes for both BSD and Linux. The idea is to help end
 typical proprietary driver development for good:

 # Linux support

 Linux support targets the alx driver to be built in synch with
 linux-next.git as the base development tree. Backport kernel support
 is provided by utilizing the compat-drivers framework.

 To build for linux you will need a few trees. We have scripts to let
 you get all that you need:

 <pre>
 cd ~
 git clone git://github.com/mcgrof/compat.git
 cd compat
 ./bin/get-compat-trees

 cd ~
 mkdir unified/
 git clone git://github.com/mcgrof/alx.git

 cd alx
 ./make linux
 </pre>

 # Contributions

 Contributions to compat follow the same mechanisms as used in the Linux kernel,
 this means you should provide as Singed-off-by tag as documented on the
 Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1.

 # Submitting patches

 compat and compat-drivers contributions follow the contribution model
 implemented by the Linux kernel. Patches or pull requests for compat and
 compat-drivers must have be signed-offed. If you don't sign off on them they
 will not accepted. This means adding a line that says "Signed-off-by: Name
 email" at the end of each commit, indicating that you wrote the code and have
 the right to pass it on as an open source patch. For exact definition of what
 the Signed-off-by tag is you can read the definition of the "Developer's
 Certificate of Origin 1.1", which you can read here:

 http://gerrit.googlecode.com/svn/documentation/2.0/user-signedoffby.html

 You can send patches as follows:

   * To: mcgrof@kernel.org, adrian@freebsd.org
   * Cc: nic-devel@qualcomm.com
   * Subject: alx: foo
