**Linux kernel backports review**

This page documents GSoC project ideas for Linux kernel backportings effort. The Linux kernel functionality from future kernels are backported to older kernels through backports. Some subsystems tend to have their own backport work as independent projects. We should be able to unify backport work as much as possible through a unified framework and allow users to select which parts they want to compile for their target kernel. When providing backport work we also should prioritize working properly upstream.
