Code Reviewers

In Lustre 2.12 and later, the MAINTAINERS file contains a list of developers that are available for code review. It allows flexible selection of reviewers, by directory, filename, or regular expression. Developers are strongly encouraged to add themselves as reviewers for areas that they are knowledgeable in.

For developers looking for reviewers, the contrib/scripts/get_maintainer.pl script can be run against a file or patch to generate a list of reviewers. In addition to looking at the MAINTAINERS file, it will also search recent git commit history to find the list of people who have reviewed and modified this code the most. Since this is based on lines of code modified, it can sometimes be confused by patches that are making trivial changes (e.g. whitespace cleanup), so some discretion is needed when using the results.

The following list of people are willing to perform code reviews on code in the listed sections.It is kept for historical purposes until it can be merged into the MAINTAINERS file.
