Email clients info for Linux
======================================================================
+Git
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+These days most developers use `git send-email` instead of regular
+email clients. The man page for this is quite good. On the receiving
+end, maintainers use `git am` to apply the patches.
+
+If you are new to git then send your first patch to yourself. Save it
+as raw text including all the headers. Run `git am raw_email.txt` and
+then review the changelog with `git log`. When that works then send
+the patch to the appropriate mailing list(s).

4.2 Notify memory hot-add event by hand
------------
-On powerpc, the firmware does not notify a memory hotplug event to the kernel.
-Therefore, "probe" interface is supported to notify the event to the kernel.
-This interface depends on CONFIG_ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE.
-
-CONFIG_ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE is supported on powerpc only. On x86, this config
-option is disabled by default since ACPI notifies a memory hotplug event to
-the kernel, which performs its hotplug operation as the result. Please
-enable this option if you need the "probe" interface for testing purposes
-on x86.
+On some architectures, the firmware may not notify the kernel of a memory
+hotplug event. Therefore, the memory "probe" interface is supported to
+explicitly notify the kernel. This interface depends on
+CONFIG_ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE and can be configured on powerpc, sh, and x86
+if hotplug is supported, although for x86 this should be handled by ACPI
+notification.
Probe interface is located at
