Linux regressions report for mainline [2023-04-09]

Linux regressions report for mainline [2023-04-09]

[Regzbot (on behalf of Thorsten Leemhuis)]

Hi Linus. The list of tracked 6.3 regressions is slowly growing longer
(see below), but there is nothing much to worry about afaics.

There is another fix for a media regression (that due to backports is
present is a few stable trees as well) that looks somewhat stalled, but
I'm not sure if it is ready for merging. If you want to judge yourself,
take a look at this thread:

Hi, this is regzbot, the Linux kernel regression tracking bot.

Currently I'm aware of 8 regressions in linux-mainline. Find the
current status below and the latest on the web:

Bye bye, hope to see you soon for the next report.

End of report

All regressions marked '[ *NEW* ]' were added since the previous report,

Thanks for your attention, have a nice day!

  Regzbot, your hard working Linux kernel regression tracking robot


P.S.: Wanna know more about regzbot or how to use it to track regressions
for your subsystem? Then check out the getting started guide or the
reference documentation:

https://gitlab.com/knurd42/regzbot/-/blob/main/docs/getting_started.md
https://gitlab.com/knurd42/regzbot/-/blob/main/docs/reference.md

The short version: if you see a regression report you want to see
tracked, just send a reply to the report where you Cc
regressions@lists.linux.dev with a line like this:

#regzbot introduced: v5.13..v5.14-rc1

If you want to fix a tracked regression, just do what is expected
anyway: add a 'Link:' tag with the url to the report, e.g.:

Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/30th.anniversary.repost@klaava.Helsinki.FI/

Seems to be just a warning in some situations, so not something that
I'd expedite a patch for.
