The patch below does not apply to the 5.10-stable tree.
Patch is applying cleanly on v5.10.156. Is it not where it should be applied?
Did you try building with the patch applied? :(
No because the message said "does not apply" and I wanted to make sure I am applying at the right place. I see the build issue, its because the dependent patch aaa65d17eec3 ("x86/tsx: Add a feature bit for TSX control MSR support") was missing. Strangely the dependent patch got picked up for 5.15:
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20221130180537.128827808@linuxfoundation.org/
but not for 5.10 and older. I sent the 5.10 backport for both the patches. They were compile and boot tested.
Same observation for failed patch on 5.4.
Same on 5.4, breaks the build, right?
Yes, fixing it.
I don't have special emails for "this applied but did not build" as that's more rare.
Ohk, will keep that in mind.
