This documentation covers the tools and workflows for maintaining and contributing to the Linux kernel DRM subsystem's drm-misc and drm-intel repositories. The intended audience is primarily the maintainers and committers of said repositories, but the workflow documentation may be useful for anyone interested in the kernel graphics subsystem development.

Both drm-misc and drm-intel are maintained using the same tools and very similar workflows. Both feed to the same testing and integration tree, the drm-tip. The documentation here is mostly shared, highlighting the differences in workflows where applicable.

Please use the dim-tools@lists.freedesktop.org mailing list for contributions, bug reports, and discussion about the tooling and documentation.
