Posted to the mailing list on Friday were the latest proposed guidelines for tool-generated contributions to the Linux kernel. The coding tools in large part being focused on AI generated content.
Intel Linux engineer Dave Hansen posted the third draft of the proposed AI/tool generated content guidelines for the Linux kernel. The new guidelines rename "LLM" mentions to "coding assistant", mentioning testing as part of the change if done by a tool, and some other minor revisions.
The guidelines continue to be focused on kernel contributions written in a meaningful way by a tool/AI. Plus exposure to any tools/AI that may have helped detect a problem or testing the kernel. Such contributions to the Linux kernel may be accepted but there must be transparency around the origin and usage.
Those wanting to see the latest proposed guidelines can see [1]this mailing list thread for the text in full.
