Hi!
This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 6.1.4 release. There are 207 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please let me know.
Thank you.
Is it known at this point if 6.1 will became next longterm release? It is not listed as such on https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html . We might want to do some extra testing if it is.
A kernel can not become "long term" until it would have normally dropped off of support. Right now there are known-regressions in 6.1 still that are not resolved.
And "extra" testing is always good no matter what kernel branch it is happening for, why not always do it?
thanks,
