We can go back a few major releases and we will hit a point when ARM multiplatform was enabled and the tree doesn't even build. There is no way to fix that either, but I'm sure the patches fixing the build breaks have been back ported to stable. > The point of the -rc cycle is to stabilize the final, non-rc releases. Well, stable release are *not* -rc releases and they exist in order to fix bugs that were found after the final release has been tagged; otherwise what would be the point of even having -stable ? --=20 balbi --Qxx1br4bt0+wmkIi Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJT5YxQAAoJEIaOsuA1yqREvhMQAJ9p0rZf/5AiNokYxDJ5QEKt R6buZT944iR2fMPrzLH49wtXZYiHWQq+yqe6ljfTzjYMn2PeOfVs11+lIymwxCN3 Ecv3pWbW4Gd6qjw/Uz1RtuwNmxDWaPy765PPdJsZEFCJHo6pfkonlObL8u0chYCO K83sHnQXl5xUSUC52FOIhx4tTH1q0h8my9+infSgW4nZR9VW2EqUC0Wk+3t+XUQO ZMU/oKWGHsOeh+vuFICVdUv7uU0d970odH0txrzRxcsXw/GMb72l9oWoSPFacnmx Jibo+uVMezk6jYAPDpJFW6qx/gHGcMIwPdr0VH8cHea8aNLavmmmO++xrW9V3sUO RCiBhGZiewDi5tXlh0MQEjCOpwRGvXTjg1eVohhy65z/z4CF0N0QOGRIRHo3caVV zhXGLjV3to9ThiF+WCcsRXqkiTLeEjjaFSJG/pe3jNrACGgYeIneX0zMcTTk1ZDh ZGb53XFfCsVEWRyv8y9rN8EnKTL1D0Dl5aFwoPWCCefFhFMxswUwrXgmhG7QAvil fTCRt3MFCYPSJWZBJzFwH3MZ10aasEZVFAFfy9Z3x2KSe8eRmXeMBEXc/4bVvwZy 5XyMPFMMRQODO7PKTEr5lMNCwqDFGnoOUKvPSx0TrVWTE9YlXAePFpFDeu0AiJWW Gqk6iWmJ0E8rS7QNQxo3 =/2pp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Qxx1br4bt0+wmkIi-- From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: balbi@ti.com (Felipe Balbi) Date: Fri, 8 Aug 2014 21:49:52 -0500 Subject: OMAP baseline test results for v3.16-rc4 In-Reply-To: References: <20140730053940.GX29045@atomide.com> <20140731131107.GB29045@atomide.com> <20140801071056.GD29045@atomide.com> <20140808021442.GA22811@saruman.home> <20140808143411.GA2288@saruman.home> Message-ID: <20140809024952.GA31064@saruman.home> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org List-Id: linux-arm-kernel.lists.infradead.org Hi, On Fri, Aug 08, 2014 at 11:39:08PM +0000, Paul Walmsley wrote: > On Fri, 8 Aug 2014, Felipe Balbi wrote: > > > On Fri, Aug 08, 2014 at 06:11:54AM +0000, Paul Walmsley wrote: > > > On Thu, 7 Aug 2014, Felipe Balbi wrote: > > > > > > > we have stable releases for that. > > > > > > Stable releases aren't a fix for process failures. > > > > of course not, but your claim that there's no way to fix v3.16 is > > nonsense.
