=====Mailing lists=====

^ List ^ Description ^
|**linux-rt-users@vger.kernel.org** | Real-Time Linux Users: Release announcements, bug reports and handling, general usage questions, development or user-space tools (e.g. rt-test suite).  [[linux-rt-users+subscribe@vger.kernel.org | subscribe linux-rt-users]]  [[linux-rt-users+unsubscribe@vger.kernel.org | unsubscribe linux-rt-users]]  [[https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rt-users/ | archive]] |
|**linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org** | (LKML) Linux Kernel Development: technical discussions related to upstream and RT tree patches with all developers and maintainers. [[linux-kernel+subscribe@vger.kernel.org | subscribe linux-kernel]] [[linux-kernel+unsubscribe@vger.kernel.org | unsubscribe linux-kernel]]  [[https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kernel/ | archive]] |

Information about all Linux kernel developer mailing lists is provided on [[https://subspace.kernel.org/vger.kernel.org.html|vger.kernel.org]]. If there are questions about LKML, please consider [[http://vger.kernel.org/lkml/|LKML FAQs]] first.

<WRAP left round important>

All patches against the RT tree should be [[realtime:communication:send_rt_patches | posted]]
to LKML. CCing rt-users is fine, but development needs to happen on
the main kernel development list because only a few
developers/maintainers are subscribed to rt-users. Furthermore, the
more patch discussion happens on LKML, the more it helps promote the
willingness of other kernel developers to accept that
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT isn't going to go away, and will probably
(hopefully!) be merged into mainline someday soon.

The linux-rt-users list is intended for users who want to ask questions about using the -rt patch set.
