From my understanding 31e0721aeabde29371f624f56ce2f403508527a5 should not be merged w/o 8ff059b8531f3b98e14f0461859fc7cdd95823e4, which also seems to be the case for all other stable kernels from linux-5.12.y up.
So 8ff059b8531f3b98e14f0461859fc7cdd95823e4 should be added, too, if 31e0721aeabde29371f624f56ce2f403508527a5 stays in.
Ok, thanks, now queued up.
Great! linux-5.10.y is already building fine now again for ia64.
And I thought that ia64 was dead?
No, actually it's alive and well - just currently outside of mainline - but still in the stable kernels up to linux-6.6.y and for newer kernels patched back in. If you want to check on our CI ([2]), all current stable kernels build fine for ia64 and run in Ski - but linux-5.10.y currently only because I manually added 8ff059b8531f3b98e14f0461859fc7cdd95823e4 to the list of patches applied by the CI.
Will be interesting to see how long it lasts, good luck!
Thanks! I think we get better and better with each obstacle moved out of the way.
BTW that seems to have been prophetic by you, because now the linux-4.19.y build for ia64 is broken. ;-) But we're already on it and have a trace. I'll report our findings soon. :-)
Cheers, Frank
