enycI would like to understand, will upstream kernel fixes in stable 5.4 series automatically make into ubuntu Kernel 5.4.0-43 [and onwards] new kernel provided by ubuntu?14:26
enyce.g. Kernel floppy maintainer confirms a certain race-condition/contended case I experience is fixed in 5.4.47 onwards upstream!14:26
enycOh !!! I see Channel topic!14:26
enycWhich presumably means ''yes''!14:27
bjfenyc, yes. we pick up and apply upstream stable fixes on a regular basis and put them out every 3 weeks17:53
enycbjf: if it helps to ask explicitly,  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11570219/  [commit id in stable tree is 29ed45653bec]  in stable branch since 5.4.47   could go in please18:52
enycbjf: in any case, when is the next 3-weekly-update ?18:53
enycHrrm. I se ethat might also only be ubuntu kernel maintainers, nt necesasrially a new version in focal-updates of course.  ...19:07
bjfenyc, kernel.ubuntu.com has the schedule19:07
enycbjf: aah i was starting to look at such tihngs ;p19:07
enycbjf: OH so there may be a release tomorrow!  where are the intertim testing kernels aailable and all that?     I have seen somebode point me at ages ago i forget!19:08
* enyc spanks enyc and reads wiki!19:09
bjfenyc, you commit is on the master-next branch and will come out in approx. 3 weeks from tommorrow19:11
enycbjf: i see!19:11
enycbjf: already or because I asked? ;-)19:11
bjfenyc, was already queued19:12
enycbjf: ok im not finding for myself, where any testing kernel images can be downloaded or found!19:12
bjfenyc, there isn't one for that kernel yet. they will be built this coming week after the existing batch are released19:12
enycbjf: i know, but still would like to know for reference19:13
enyci appreciate new image will neext testing and all of that as per next cycle19:13
bjfenyc, i use this ppa for my testing: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/proposed19:13
bjfenyc, when kernels go to -proposed they also go to that ppa19:13
bjfenyc, it's easier than enabling all of -proposed19:14
bjfenyc, that way you only get kernels and not other packages in -proposed19:14
enycbjf: yes, with no pinning krefluffle19:14
enycbjf: thankyou for very helpful answers!19:26
