You can contribute to blktests by sending patches to the
[email protected] mailing list and Shin'ichiro Kawasaki [email protected]
or by opening a pull request to the blktests GitHub
repository. Patch post is more recommended
since it will be visible to more kernel developers and easier to gather
feedback. If sending patches, please generate the patch with git format-patch --subject-prefix="PATCH blktests"
. Consider configuring git to do this for you
with git config --local format.subjectPrefix "PATCH blktests"
.
All commits must be signed off (i.e., Signed-off-by: Jane Doe <[email protected]>
)
as per the Developer Certificate of Origin.
git commit -s
and git format-patch -s
can do this for you.
Please run make check
before submitting a new test. This runs the
shellcheck static analysis tool and
some other sanity checks.
