We’re back this Monday with our second profile (see the first one with Greg KH here) in the latest edition of 30 Linux Kernel Developers in 30 Weeks. This series focuses on the workspaces used by Linux kernel developers and aims to take us a little closer into the ways that some of the world’s best software developers do their work.

This week we talked to Steve Rostedt, who works for Red Hat and maintains the stable Linux kernel releases of the real-time patch. A huge thanks to Steve for taking us deep inside his office with this video and giving us a sense of how he approaches the magic and the madness of Linux kernel development.
