Most up to date DEVELOPER version of the Linux kernel?

Isomorph70 · 10-04-2013, 03:44 PM

Where do I get the most up to date DEVELOPER version of
the Linux kernel?

I would like to make some kind of feedback system for
Linux kernel developers.

I have already made a system for analyzing c source code
(see here)
, but now I want to integrate it with the Linux kernel.

In order to have a system with a fast feedback cycle, I want
to check out the git branch, that is most often updated.

So what branch should I check out?

git

Well according to this
https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html

The most updated version is Prepatch, but it have to have the approval
by Linus Torvalds.
But is it possible to get a more RAW version, where developer can just commit --- the per approval version?

3.12-rc3 soon to be rc4(rc releases released into mainline weekly on Sundays usually), linux-next will give you latest latest (if a week old is too old). As others mentioned, kernel.org is your friend...

Thanks for the help.

I made my project 'The Linux Leanness Logger'
some software that measure the 'leanness' of the
Linux kernel and the plot it over time.

You can find it here.

The development of the measure you can find here.

Now I have to figure out, how I can inform the kernel developers about my project.
