From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Wed Mar 08 2023 - 20:03:54 EST


Dcumentation for contributing to KVM x86, round 2!

v2:
- Fix a KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID typo. [Yuan]
- Give Cthulhu the respect it deserves. [Like]
- Explicitly state that selftests vs. KVM patches need to maintain
bisection (when possible). [Like]
- Change the recommended base from topic branches to "next" (and plan on
providing stable, persistent git objects via tags). [David W]
- Add a blurb to provide guidance for series that touch non-x86 arch
code. [Yu]
- Clarify when (not) to reference/quote specs (APM and SDM). [Maciej]
- Add preferences for shortlog length. [Maciej]
- Exempt things like comment fixes from testing requirements. [Maciej]
- Add a foreword to try and make the doc less scary to newcomers. [Maciej]
- Add a rule for testing Documentation/ changes.
- Clarify that fixes for the current cycle may be carried in the KVM x86
tree, but are usually taken directly by Paolo. [Robert]
- Tweak the "Changelog" section to call out that using imperative mood
and avoiding pronouns is the most important rule.
