Hi, Thorsten here, the Linux kernel's regression tracker. Top-posting for once, to make this easily accessible to everyone.
Jarkko, thx for reviewing and picking below fix up. Are you planning to send this to Linus anytime soon, now that the patch was a few days in next? It would be good to get this 6.1 regression finally fixed, it already took way longer then the time frame Documentation/process/handling-regressions.rst outlines for a case like this. But well, that's how it is sometimes...
Linus, would you consider picking this fix up directly from here or from linux-next (8699d5244e37)? It's been in the latter for 9 days now afaics. And the issue seems to bug more than just one or two users, so it IMHO would be good to get this finally resolved.
Jarkko didn't reply to my inquiry, guess something else keeps him busy.
That's a bit arrogant. You emailed only 4 days ago.
I'm open to do PR for rc3 with the fix, if it cannot wait to v6.4 pr.
If this is about slow response with kernel bugzilla: it is not *enforced* part of the process. If it was, I would use it. Since it isn't, I don't really want to add any extra weight to my workflow.
It's not only extra time but also it is not documented how exactly and in detail you would use it. For email we have all that documented. And when you don't have guidelines, then it is too flakky to use properly.
No interest in wading into a process argument. But if you're able to send this for rc3, please please do so. Users keep getting hit by this, some email me directly, and I keep replying saying the fix should be released any day now. So let's make that happen.
