Feel free to submit a tested-by if you want credit for doing the work (and so that I know it still is working), I'm more than glad to collect them all as they end up in the release commit message in the kernel log. One example can be seen here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=linux-6.1.y&id=2cb8e624295ffa0c4d659fcec7d9e7a6c48de156 > > Do you have problems with 6.1.y vs. older kernels? > > Nope, anything that needed fixing that was on my radar has already made > it into 6.1.y. > > > Is there > > anything missing in it that you feel needs to be addressed with a newer > > kernel instead? > > Anything missing on the RISC-V side of things, that we would want, is > still a work in progress for kernels later than 6.2 anyway. that's great to hear, thanks for letting me know and for testing. greg k-h
