Greg Kroah-Hartman is a Linux kernel hacker. He is the current Linux kernel maintainer for the PCI, USB, I2C, driver core and the sysfs kernel subsystems, along with contributing to the kobject, kref and debugfs code. He is also the maintainer of the linux-hotplug and udev projects. Additionally, he maintains the Gentoo Linux packages for these programs, and helps with the kernel package. He works for SuSE Labs.
He is a co-author of the book, "Linux Device Drivers, 3rd Edition"[1] and a contributing editor for Linux Journal. He also contributes articles to LWN, the news computing site. Another book, "Linux Kernel in a Nutshell"[2] is in the offing.
Kroah-Hartman frequently helps in the documentation of the kernel and driver development through talks[3] [4] and tutorials[5] [6]. Recently, he released a CD image of material to get a programmer started on Linux device driver development [7].
