Debian kernel team (1)
+
+ Who are we?
+
+
+ -
+ Currently 5 general maintainers: Maximilian Attems, Bastian
+ Blank, dann frazier, Moritz Muehlenhoff and me
+
+ -
+ Many more specialised contributors:
+
+ - Specific architectures
+ - Specific features (e.g. Xen)
+ - Bug triage
+
+
+ -
+ Would appreciate more help, particularly with bug triage and
+ PowerPC
+
+

+
Debian kernel team (2)
+
+ What do we do?
+
+
+ -
+ Bug triage - takes a huge amount of time
+
+ -
+ Backport bug fixes and features - particularly new hardware
+ support for stable
+
+ - ...while trying not to change kernel ABI in stable
+
+
+ -
+ Update build configurations for each new upstream release -
+ e.g. to enable new drivers
+
+ -
+ Try to ensure smooth upgrades when there are major
+ implementation changes - e.g. KMS, switch to libata drivers
+
+ -
+ Integrate some features not accepted upstream
+
+
+
+
+
+
Official Linux kernel packages (1)
+
+ Main source package is linux-2.6 (still!). Most binary package
+ names change regularly.
+
+
+ -
+ linux-image-upstream-abi-flavour
+ - compiled kernel and modules
+
+ -
+ linux-headers-upstream-abi-flavour
+ (and others) - development package for OOT modules
+
+ -
+ linux-libc-dev - headers for userland
+
+ -
+ linux-source-upstream - for custom kernels
+
+ -
+ linux-doc-upstream, linux-tools-upstream,
+ etc.
+
+ -
+ linux-support-upstream-abi - scripts and
+ metadata to support linux-latest-2.6
+
+
+
+
+
+
Official Linux kernel packages (2)
+
+ The linux-latest-2.6 source package builds meta-packages to
+ support automatic upgrades between binaries built from linux-2.6.

+ -
+ linux-image-flavour
+
+ -
+ linux-headers-flavour
+
+ -
+ linux-source, linux-doc, linux-tools, etc.

+ The installer will normally install linux-image-flavour
+ (for some appropriate flavour).
