Note, this is the LAST 5.6.y release to be made, please move to the 5.7.y tree at this time. It is now end-of-life. ---------
I'm announcing the release of the 5.6.19 kernel.
All users of the 5.6 kernel series must upgrade.
The updated 5.6.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-5.6.y and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser: https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git%3Ba=summa...
thanks,
