Hi!

One day, I watched a video from Greg: https://youtu.be/LLBrBBImJt4, and I started wondering if maybe I could contribute to the Linux kernel.

If you are interested in security, fixing Coverity issues is a great way to contribute to the kernel. Here are some presentations that you might find useful:

You can also watch these presentations on YouTube for additional context.

You can sign up here for linux-next scans: https://scan.coverity.com/projects/linux-next-weekly-scan

and here for -rc scans: https://scan.coverity.com/projects/linux

I hope this helps.

Gustavo
