Hi

I would like to upload next version of the 6.12.y stable series to
unstable, which would be 6.12.35-1. This is a bigger one than usual.
The update would consist of two stable series versions 6.12.34 and
6.12.35 which were released in and after the 6.16 merge window.
Depending on upstream timing and your ack/nack thich might be as well
6.12.36-1 including more fixes from thins batch.

As it stands now the new upstream versions will fix #1104745, and a
couple of CVE fixes (which are already assigned, I expect more not yet assigned).

Including with the update I would like to include a couple of HW
support backports and fixes which have not yet landed in the stable
series. They are:


* [armhf] Enable various kernel modules for the machines defined in the
device-trees st/stm32mp153c-lxa-tac-gen3,
st/stm32mp153c-lxa-fairytux2-gen1 and st/stm32mp153c-lxa-fairytux2-gen2
(Closes: #1105865)

Improves HW support those devies.


* Don't compress perf's tips.txt (Closes: #1088747)

Not that urgent, but finally fixed. perf references tips.txt and
cannot load it as we shipped in compressed.


* [riscv64] Enable BRCMFMAC_SDIO (Closes: #1108215)

Improves HW support for StarFive VisionFive ("V1" JH7100 CPU board)
and BeagleV Starlight for SDIO AP6236 Bluetooth+WiFi chipset. It will
be as well usefull for other devies, but for them the DTS is not yet
upstreamed AFAIU the reporter.

* ALSA: hda/realtek: Fix built-in mic on ASUS VivoBook X507UAR
(Closes: #1108069)

This change landed in mainline already but not in the stable series.
The builtin microphone on Asus X507UA does not record.

* Revert "mmc: sdhci: Disable SD card clock before changing parameters"
(Closes: #1108065)

A regression, where some systems (like the reporters Lenovo IdeaPad
15ADA7) doe not boot anymore from the eMMC. The change has been
applied by maintainer on its tree, but it has not yet been Landed in
Linus' tree. I believe it's beneficial to already pick this in advance
still.

As full freeze is approaching I will defintively wait a bit on this
upload before hearing back.

Regards,
Salvatore

Yeah, that looked like a worrisome regression…

I'd like to get a release going within a few days, so it'd be great if
you could hold off for a little while. I /think/ we could manage if
linux* were updated in unstable but it's a little safer to avoid that
(if that doesn't hold you back too much).

Ack in this case holding back the unstable upload until having your
"go". Good luck with the next d-i release!

Regards,
Salvatore

Thank you, will finalize the upload then (including some additional
backports as in meanwhile piled up) and still base it on 6.12.35.

And uploaded 6.12.35-1 to unstable.

p.s.: Btw, the 6.12.36 review just landed today. The following is very
vague, but as mentioned earlier the changes we are seeing now are
those which landed in the merge window for 6.16. That means we
might want to follow with 6.12.36 potentially fixing issues
introduced in those big updates. We monitor in any case for
regression reports.
