I want to contribute to the Linux kernel [closed]

Answer 3

Start with these: Kernel Bugs involving typo. (Search everyday until you find something promising). Search that bug database with keywords like "comment", "typo", "documentation", "minor bug", etc. Also, search under the category Documentation here.

Learn the process first. Then, attempt to contribute something significant.
