=== JanC is now known as Guest4647 [08:37] Can anyone tell me anything about the kernel "unstable" repository? How is the repository structured? How is it synchronised to the mainline kernel and so on...? [08:57] https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/unstable [08:58] it's structured mostly like the generic distro kernel, as it'll become the next distro kernel [08:59] 6.9 was skipped because we were working on 6.8/24.04 instead, 6.10 is currently worked on [09:07] tjaalton: Thank you. The master branch on the unstable repository it the next distro kernel, currently for Ubuntu Oracular Oriole (all patches from ubuntu are on the master branch, yes)? [09:08] oracular is still using the forward-port of the noble kernel [09:08] which is 6.8 [09:09] unstable will always stay separate. at some point there will be a repo for the oracular kernel, based on the work that happened in the unstable repo [09:10] but the release kernels have 'master' and 'master-next' branches. master roughly matches the latest tag in the release, master-next is for the next update [09:13] but yes, unstable/master should have everything, although at the same time it should have the least number of cherry-picked/SAUCE patches as most should be available upstream [09:14] and it takes time to get support for zfs and nvidia etc for the unstable kernel, and it can't land in the distro without having support for those [09:15] Is it possible to get a commit in the "unstable" repository that corresponds to the latest available release (e.g. noble)? [09:21] what do you mean? [09:23] it's a separate repo, not going to be rebased to the noble one [09:52] okay, thanks so much [10:10] Maybe someone can add the topic unstable-repository to this page. [10:10] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/SourceCode [10:17] well, unstable is not used by any release ;)
