    [$] An update on the Sashiko patch-review system

    Date:
    Mon, 05 Oct 2026 15:10:37 +0000

    Description:
    Patch review has long been one of the limiting constraints for the kernel project (and most others); there just aren't enough people to properly
    review all of the code that is submitted for inclusion. The Sashiko
    system, which uses a large language model (LLM) to generate reviews automatically, offers the prospect of some relief, and has already become
    an important part of the kernel's development process. At the 2026 edition
    of Kernel Recipes , Roman
    Gushchin, the maintainer of Sashiko, provided an overview of how
    the system works and what is being done to improve it.
