4.8.3 preparations

4.8.3 preparations

[Jan Beulich]

All,

with the goal of releasing relatively soon after New Year, please
point out backport candidates you find missing from the respective
staging branches, but which you consider relevant.

Thanks, Jan

Travis (with a newly updated Clang) is showing build failures on 4.7 and
4.8.  Luckily, we've already fixed this in 4.9, but it makes c/s
bfd9a2095f a backport candidate for stable releases.

Hi Andrew, Jan, Ian,

With Christoph any myself reporting the same kernel crash when using 4.14.x kernels and Xen 4.8.2 is there any chance to look at this bug before 4.8.3 is released? 

Best regards,

Alex

As "our" bug seems to be kernel-side (I've no problems in 4.13.16, or
any other 4.13.x I was running before - neither in 4.12 and some way
back, as far as I can remember), that's rather unrelated.

Regards,
Christoph

As Christoph has already pointed out - unless you have indication
of your issue (a) being a hypervisor issue and (b) already addressed
in master, I don't understand the request: For stable releases we
only consider backports.
