American software programmer

David Stephen Miller (born November 26, 1974) is an American software developer working on the Linux kernel, where he is the primary maintainer of the networking subsystem and individual networking drivers, the SPARC implementation, and the IDE subsystem. With other people, he co maintains the crypto API, KProbes, IPsec, and is also involved in other development work. He is also a founding member of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) steering committee.

As of January 2022, Miller is #1 in "non author signoff" patches, which are Linux kernel modifications reviewed by the subsystem maintainer who ultimately applies them. He's been in the top gatekeepers for years since kernel 2.6.22 in 2007. He worked at the Rutgers University Center for Advanced Information Processing, and then Red Hat since 1999.

Miller ported the Linux kernel to the Sun Microsystems SPARC in 1996 with Miguel de Icaza. He has also ported Linux to the 64 bit UltraSPARC machines, including UltraSPARC T1 in early 2006 and later the T2 and T2+. as of 2010 he continues to maintain the sparc port (both 32 bit and 64 bit).
