A kernel code of conduct enforcement action


The <a href="https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/tab/start" rel="nofollow">Linux Foundation Technical
Advisory Board</a> (TAB) has https://lwn.net/ml/linux-kernel/6740fc3aabec0_5eb129497@dwillia2-xfh.jf.intel.com.notmuch/
 to "restrict Kent Overstreet's
participation in the kernel development process during the Linux 6.13
kernel development cycle" based on a recommendation from the <a href="https://kernel.org/code-of-conduct.html" rel="nofollow">Code of Conduct
committee</a>.  In particular, the scope of the restriction will be to "decline all pull
requests from Kent Overstreet" during the development cycle.
Overstreet is the creator and maintainer of the https://bcachefs.org/
 filesystem.


This
action stems from a https://lwn.net/ml/linux-kernel/citv2v6f33hoidq75xd2spaqxf7nl5wbmmzma4wgmrwpoqidhj@k453tmq7vdrk/

Overstreet posted back in early September that was abusive toward another
kernel developer; there is a fair amount of back-and-forth about the
incident and the committee's attempts to extract a public apology from
Overstreet in that thread.  Overstreet has published a https://www.patreon.com/posts/116412665

describing his side of the story.
