<div>This is the home page of the '''Linux kernel backporting project'''.<br />
<br />
We provide drivers released on newer kernels backported for usage on older kernels. <br />
<br />
Both daily snapshots based on [http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git linux-next], and stable releases based [http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git Linux's stable releases] are provided.<br />
<br />
The project aims to optimize the backporting process by not only providing backported drivers but by also aiming to [http://www.do-not-panic.com/2012/08/automatically-backporting-linux-kernel.html automatically backport the Linux kernel] by [http://www.do-not-panic.com/2012/08/optimizing-backporting-collateral.html optimizing backporting collateral evolutions].<br />
