The tree you are after is Greg's staging tree. You can find it here. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git/ As Greg already said, the branch of that tree you want is staging-next, also you may like to check your patches apply to the staging-testing branch before submitting them. Good luck, Tobin. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list [email protected] https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
