| Iproute2 development is closely tied to Linux kernel networking |
| development. Most new features require a kernel and a utility component. |
| |
| Please submit both kernel and iproute changes to the Linux networking mailing list |
| <netdev@vger.kernel.org> |
| |
| Patch submitting rules are similar to the kernel. |
| See: |
| https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html |
| |
| The current source for the stable version is in the git repository: |
| git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/iproute2/iproute2.git |
| |
| The development git repository is available at the following address: |
| git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/iproute2/iproute2-next.git |
| |
| The stable repository contains the source corresponding to the |
| current code in the Linux networking tree (net), which in turn is |
| aligned on the mainline Linux kernel (ie follows Linus). |
| The iproute2-next repository tracks the code intended for the next |
| release; it corresponds with networking development tree (net-next) |
| in the kernel. |
| |
| Patches should be prefixed with iproute2 or iproute2-next as appropriate. |
| For example: |
| Subject: [PATCH iproute2-next] ip: fix syntax for rules |
