Contributing guide

This guide mainly focuses on the steps to follow to submit an issue or a pull request.

1. Issues

1.1 Before opening an issue

Before posting an issue, please ensure:

  • You are using the latest commit.
  • Your issue is not a vulnerability. Otherwise, please refer to section 3 below.
  • Your issue is related to the software provided in this repository. Otherwise, please refer to section 4 below.
  • Your issue is not already reported, fixed or discussed in a previous one. Remember to browse the closed issues.

1.2 Posting the issue

When you have checked the previous points, create a new report from the Issues tab of this repository. A couple of templates are available here.

2. Pull Requests

2.1 Before opening a pull request

STMicrolectronics is happy to receive contributions from the community, based on an initial Contributor License Agreement (CLA) procedure.

  • If you are an individual writing original source code and you are sure you own the intellectual property, then you need to sign an Individual CLA.
  • If you work for a company that wants also to allow you to contribute with your work, your company needs to provide a Corporate CLA mentioning your GitHub account name.
  • If you are not sure that a CLA (Individual or Corporate) has been signed for your GitHub account you can check the CLA dedicated page.

Important

Please note that:

  • The Corporate CLA will always take precedence over the Individual CLA.
  • One CLA submission is sufficient, for any project proposed by STMicroelectronics.

2.2 How to proceed

  • We recommend to engage first a communication thru an issue, in order to present your proposal, just to confirm that it corresponds to STMicroelectronics' domain or scope.
  • Then fork the project to your GitHub account to further develop your contribution. Please use the latest commit version.
  • Please, submit one pull request per new feature or proposal. This will ease the analysis and the final merge if accepted.

3. Vulnerabilities

To report a vulnerability, please refer to the SECURITY.md file for instructions.

4. Support requests and miscellaneous

For support requests or any other topics not related to the content of this repository, you can submit a post to the ST Community on the appropriate topic page.
