1 ========= Binutils Maintainers =========
2
3This is the list of individuals responsible for maintenance and update
4of the GNU Binary Utilities project. This includes the linker (ld),
5the assembler (gas), the profiler (gprof), a whole suite of other
6programs (binutils) and the libraries that they use (bfd and
7opcodes). This project shares a common set of header files with the
8GCC and GDB projects (include), so maintainership of those files is
9shared amoungst the projects.
10
11The home page for binutils is:
12
13 http://www.gnu.org/software/binutils/binutils.html
14
15and patches should be sent to:
16
17 binutils@sourceware.org
18
19with "[Patch]" as part of the subject line. Note - patches to the
20top level config.guess and config.sub scripts should be sent to:
21
22 config-patches@gnu.org
23
24and not to the binutils lists. Patches to the other top level
25configure files (configure, configure.in, config-ml.in) should
26be sent to the binutils lists, and copied to the gcc and gdb
27lists as well (gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org and
28gdb-patches@sourceware.org).

30 --------- Blanket Write Privs ---------
31
32The following people have permission to check patches into the
33repository without obtaining approval first:
34
35 Nick Clifton <nickc@redhat.com> (head maintainer)
36 Richard Henderson <rth@redhat.com>
37 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@airs.com>
38 Jeff Law <law@redhat.com>
39 Jim Wilson <wilson@tuliptree.org>
40 DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com>
41 Alan Modra <amodra@gmail.com>
42 Michael Meissner <gnu@the-meissners.org>
43 Daniel Jacobowitz <drow@false.org>
44 Richard Sandiford <rdsandiford@googlemail.com>
45
46 --------- Maintainers ---------
47
48Maintainers are individuals who are responsible for, and have
49permission to check in changes in, certain subsets of the code. Note
50that maintainers still need approval to check in changes outside of
51the immediate domain that they maintain.
52
53If there is no maintainer for a given domain then the responsibility
54falls to the head maintainer (above). If there are several
55maintainers for a given domain then responsibility falls to the first
56maintainer. The first maintainer is free to devolve that
57responsibility among the other maintainers.

153 --------- CGEN Maintainers -------------
154
155CGEN is a tool for building, amongst other things, assemblers,
156disassemblers and simulators from a single description of a CPU.
157It creates files in several of the binutils directories, but it
158is mentioned here since there is a single group that maintains
159CGEN and the files that it creates.
160
161If you have CGEN related problems you can send email to;
162
163 cgen@sourceware.org
164
165The current CGEN maintainers are:
166
167 Doug Evans, Frank Eigler
168
169 --------- Write After Approval ---------
170
171Individuals with "write after approval" have the ability to check in
172changes, but they must get approval for each change from someone in
173one of the above lists (blanket write or maintainers).
174
175[It's a huge list, folks. You know who you are. If you have the
176 *ability* to do binutils checkins, you're in this group. Just
177 remember to get approval before checking anything in.]
178
179 ------------- Obvious Fixes -------------
180
181Fixes for obvious mistakes do not need approval, and can be checked in
182right away, but the patch should still be sent to the binutils list.
183The definition of obvious is a bit hazy, and if you are not sure, then
184you should seek approval first. Obvious fixes include fixes for
185spelling mistakes, blatantly incorrect code (where the correct code is
186also blatantly obvious), and so on. Obvious fixes should always be
187small, the larger they are, the more likely it is that they contain
188some un-obvious side effect or consequence.
189
190 --------- Branch Checkins ---------
191
192If a patch is approved for check in to the mainline sources, it can
193also be checked into the current release branch. Normally however
194only bug fixes should be applied to the branch. New features, new
195ports, etc, should be restricted to the mainline. (Otherwise the
196burden of maintaining the branch in sync with the mainline becomes too
197great). If you are uncertain as to whether a patch is appropriate for
198the branch, ask the branch maintainer. This is:
199
200 Tristan Gingold <gingold@adacore.com>
201
202 -------- Testsuites ---------------
203
204In general patches to any of the binutils testsuites should be
205considered generic and sent to the binutils mailing list for
206approval. Patches to target specific tests are the responsibility the
207relevent port maintainer(s), and can be approved/checked in by them.
208Other testsuite patches need the approval of a blanket-write-priveleges
209person.
210
211 -------- Configure patches ----------
212
213Patches to the top level configure files (config.sub & config.guess)
214are not the domain of the binutils project and they cannot be approved
215by the binutils group. Instead they should be submitted to the config
216maintainer at:
217
218 config-patches@gnu.org
219
220 --------- Creating Branches ---------
221
222Anyone with at least write-after-approval access may create a branch
223to use for their own development purposes. In keeping with FSF
224policies, all patches applied to such a branch must come from people
225with appropriate copyright assignments on file. All legal
226requirements that would apply to any other contribution apply equally
227to contributions on a branch.
228
229Before creating the branch, you should select a name for the branch of
230the form:
231
232 binutils-<org>-<name>
233
234where "org" is the initials of your organization, or your own initials
235if you are acting as an individual. For example, for a branch created
236by The GNUDist Company, "tgc" would be an appropriate choice for
237"org". It's up to each organization to select an appropriate choice
238for "name"; some organizations may use more structure than others, so
239"name" may contain additional hyphens.
240
241Suppose that The GNUDist Company was creating a branch to develop a
242port of Binutils to the FullMonty processor. Then, an appropriate
243choice of branch name would be:
244
245 binutils-tgc-fm
246
247A date stamp is not required as part of the name field, but some
248organizations like to have one. If you do include the date, you
249should follow these rules:
250
2511. The date should be the date that the branch was created.
252
2532. The date should be numerical and in the form YYYYMMDD.
254
255For example:
256
257 binutils-tgc-fm_20050101
258
259would be appropriate if the branch was created on January 1st, 2005.
260
261Having selected the branch name, create the branch as follows:
262
2631. Check out binutils, so that you have a git checkout corresponding
264 to the initial state of your branch.
265
2662. Create a tag:
267
268 git tag binutils-<org>-<name>-branchpoint
269
270 That tag will allow you, and others, to easily determine what's
271 changed on the branch relative to the initial state.
272
2733. Create and push the branch:
274
275 git checkout -b binutils-<org>-<name>-branch
276 git push origin HEAD
277
2784. Document the branch:
279
280 Add a description of the branch to binutils/BRANCHES, and check
281 that file in. All branch descriptions should be added to the
282 HEAD revision of the file; it doesn't help to modify
283 binutils/BRANCHES on a branch!
284
285Please do not commit any patches to a branch you did not create
286without the explicit permission of the person who created the branch.
