Re: Linux Kernel Scheduling Addition Notification : Hybrid Sleepers and Unfair scheduling

Group,

As a contractor or employee, the code that I write while being employed by them is owned by the company that I work for.

It is then up to them / legal / management, etc whether they offer that code implementation to kernel.org or a ISP, insert it into their release, or whatever….

My notification is to say here is a minimal TOI, explain additionally where necessary, that I never saw a patch offered, it exists, and I would be willing to repeat the code with a different implementation for FREE as an individual.

If the code is within a networking area, then maybe a simple Request For Enhancement (RFE) that explains functionality, probably some minimal API, but the direction is NOT to offer an implementation of code.

Thus,,,, is just a legal statement that needs repeating each and every time that make my offer.

How rude is that?

Thus, Mike ,, your statement is totally uncalled for, inappropriate… and that being behind a email address does not excuse that.
