Hi

Following the tradition to keep up with upstream stable releases and
aiming to have a trixie close to upstream, this is to declare the
intention of uploading another linux version 6.12.26-1 to unstable
(planned 6.12.26-1, but might be 6.12.27-1 depending on progress in
next days)

linux/6.12.25-1 should migrate to testing in the next 2 days.

Debian Boot how is the timing with respect potential d-i work, an
ack/nack would be welcome to know if we should hold back the upload.

The new version imports stable seriies version to 6.12.26.

A couple of (already assigned) CVEs from the Linux kernel CNA will be
fixed (more to follow).

some packaging changes are included, so far they are:

* drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw88: Enable RTW88_8723DS as module
(Closes: #1104529)

adding specific hardware support.

* Revert "rndis_host: Flag RNDIS modems as WWAN devices" (Closes: #1104511)

which fixes a regression with USB tethering.

* lintian: Override some false positives:
- linux-headers: Override another error and warning for vmlinux
- [riscv64] linux-image-dbg: Override shared-library-lacks-stack-section
for vdso.so
- [arm64] linux-perf: Override statically-linked-binary for asm_pure_loop
* [ppc64*] linux-image: Fix version in NEWS entry
* linux-source: Suggest pkgconf, not the obsolete pkg-config
* linux-image-dbg: lintian: Drop mismatched override for
wrong-section-according-to-package-name
* [amd64] linux-image-cloud-amd64-dbg: lintian: Drop overrides for vdsox32.so
* d/copyright: Replace old FSF addresses with current GNU license URL
* d/rules.real: Exclude vDSOs from processing by dh_makeshlibs
* linux-doc: Use dh_sphinxdoc to replace embedded Javascript

Fixes for problems reported by lintian.

* [arm64] udeb: Add mtk-cmdq-mailbox to kernel-image

Making sure that mtk-cmdq-mailbox will be present in the udebs.

Regards,
Salvatore

Current plan for me would be to try and converge to an RC 1 some time
next week. If 6.12.{26,27} are in unstable and better yet in testing
by then, that'd be fine by me.

Thanks, I have uploaded 6.1.27-1 to unstable and is now in the NEW
queue. I think we will not be able to make it in time to have it
migrated within the 10 days, but if we see there are no major
regression we can ask release team to migrate it earlier if this d-i
release would approach.

That said, the upload does not contain the fix for #1104669 which was
now queued upstream (and so will be in the next upload).

Salvatore

Yeah, that looks very sensible to me, and very much in line with past practices. I don't remember anyone wanting to get that changed.

That said, the upload does not contain the fix for #1104669 which was
now queued upstream (and so will be in the next upload).

That particular one seems to be more in the “log noise” category than an actual problem, but I only skimmed through it. In any case, if you want
or need to perform a follow-up upload soon-ish to address more issues,
that would still work for me at this point.

No that is not urgent, I just wanted to mention it as I somehow raced
with upstream queuing the fix and me finishing the upload. Don't think
that we will need a folloup specifically for that one.

Thanks for your followup!

After just a quick look, linux* seem rather OK to me. Are you happy with
their state (from the kernel team point of view) and with their possibly getting into testing as they are, in a matter of hours?

Yes this is fine, we have not heard of major regressions/issues with
the current version and it should be okay to migrated earlier to
testing.

Thank you!

After the d-i release I will continue with another round of stable
update.

Salvatore
