Hi
I would like to upload linuxversion 6.12.19-1 to unstable (with the
aim that this should migrate to testing for trixie).
It imports 6.12.18 and 6.12.19 on top of the current packaging. There
are some packaging changes to improve (hardware) support:
* Compress kernel with zstd where supported. (Closes: #1099722)
This was asked primarily from the loong64 porters to unblock their
FTBFS.
* [amd64] sound/soc/amd/acp: Enable SND_AMD_ASOC_ACP70, SND_SOC_AMD_ACP_PCI
and SND_SOC_AMD_LEGACY_MACH as modules (Closes: #1096006)
* Enable IIO HRTIMER and SYSFS trigger. These are useful to do high-speed
continuous and manual (or scripted) sensor reading respectively.
* sound/pci/hda: Enable SND_HDA_SCODEC_CS35L56_I2C,
SND_HDA_SCODEC_CS35L56_SPI, SND_SOC_CS35L56_I2C, SND_SOC_CS35L56_SPI,
SND_SOC_CS35L56_SDW as modules
The upload does not contain yet the fixes posted upstream for the
netfs issues (#1099591, #1098698) for which I have raised the
severity, I think it should be considered RC.
For the release team, as my question in my last mail might have got
lost: What are you expecting from the kernel-team in these stages of
the freeze towards the trixie release from us? As for stable we
usually try to keep the pace with new stable upstream series versions.
Can you confirm this is still okay from you with the current approach
or let us know where you want us to adjust? Is this simple heads-up
advance notification still enough or do you need more time?
I think this is fine at this stage, but please add a cc to debian-boot as kernel updates affect d-i. I'll check with them and see if we need more advance notice, but for now this should suffice.
Thanks a lot for your feedback. Yes will add in future debian-boot as
well.
FWIW, requests for adding hardware support are flowing in at this
stage more in my gut feeling as people start more to test trixie.
Regards,
Salvatore
