Since there's a limit to the # of hours in a day, I've dropped a number of things: * Ethernet * Media * Bluetooth * 6lowpan * made various other things depend on (too) high kernel versions None of these things are unfixable - if anyone has a specific driver they need patches are very welcome. Currently, the master branch of the backports repository is now intended to work with wireless-testing tag wt-2017-02-06, plus the following patch: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9560281/ ckmake isn't entirely happy - Ubuntu kernel versions 3.0-3.3 are internally inconsistent and get errors in their own code and 3.7-4.4 are failing to link against 'mcount' which is again some ftrace problem that I'm not willing to solve right now. I assume with the correct kernel configuration these problems would go away, and I think we should stop compiling against Ubuntu kernels that nobody uses any more and instead focus on defconfigs that are actually in use, perhaps taking some from the distros. But that's another story. Please go and test this against your drivers/kernels/test beds. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe backports" in
