Hi, Thorsten here, the Linux kernel's regression tracker.
I noticed a regression report in bugzilla.kernel.org. As many (most?) kernel developers don't keep an eye on it, I decided to forward it by mail.
Note, you have to use bugzilla to reach the reporter, as I sadly[1] can not CCed them in mails like this.
Quoting from https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217282 :

Created attachment 304068 [details] dmesg of 6.1.22 vanilla boot
Dear all,
ath11k hangs when booting v6.1.22 on a HP Pro x360 G9 w/ Qualcomm FastConnect 6900 using firmware WLAN.HSP.1.1-03125-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_LITE-3.6510.23.
However, v.6.1.21 works fine.
Please let me know if I can further assist in resolving this issue - testing would be fine.
Yours, Carsten
See the ticket for more details.
[TLDR for the rest of this mail: I'm adding this report to the list of tracked Linux kernel regressions; the text you find below is based on a few templates paragraphs you might have encountered already in similar form.]
BTW, let me use this mail to also add the report to the list of tracked regressions to ensure it's doesn't fall through the cracks:
#regzbot introduced: v6.1.21..v6.1.22 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217282 #regzbot title: net: wireless: ath11k: hang on boot #regzbot ignore-activity
This isn't a regression? This issue or a fix for it are already discussed somewhere else? It was fixed already? You want to clarify when the regression started to happen? Or point out I got the title or something else totally wrong? Then just reply and tell me -- ideally while also telling regzbot about it, as explained by the page listed in the footer of this mail.
Developers: When fixing the issue, remember to add 'Link:' tags pointing to the report (e.g. the buzgzilla ticket and maybe this mail as well, if this thread sees some discussion). See page linked in footer for details.
Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat) -- Everything you wanna know about Linux kernel regression tracking: https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/about/#tldr If I did something stupid, please tell me, as explained on that page.
