[00:02] <uschcld> I was here yesterday about bug #1891768. Before re-posting an updated version, I checked if the updated Ubuntu 20.04.1 still failed. It WORKED! The bug no longer exists for vmlinuz-5.8.0-44-generic!
[00:02] <ubot5> bug 1891768 in linux (Ubuntu) "hfs+ filesystems fail reading / writing large files" [Undecided,Expired] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1891768
[00:03] <uschcld> I searched launchpad and found no bug report that claimed to fix this. Can you explain this?
[00:06] <uschcld> Is it reasonable to expect this fix to propagate to the other supported kernel versions?
[00:14] <uschcld> <tomreyn>, you assisted me yesterday. Do you have any thoughts? 
[00:46] <uschcld> I guess no one is interested in helping me today. I'll try again another day.
[14:10] <luna> good afternoon
[17:01] <jigpu> Is there a procedure for requesting a patch be ported from upstream stable into Ubuntu?
[17:06] <jigpu> Ubuntu-5.8.0-45.51 introduced a trivial-to-reproduce driver crash which has since been fixed in upstream and stable. I'm seeing a number of reports from people complaining about the issue.
[17:07] <jigpu> Upstream fix: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/179e8e47c02a1950f1c556f2b854bdb2259078fb
[20:03] <cascardo> it seems it's already queued for the kernel that will be released in ~3 weeks
