How to get fixes added to f* / stable distgit branches ?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,

With the new ARK way of doing things, I know that if I want to get patches added to
the rawhide kernel I need to do this through a merge-req to:
https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark

But what is the way to get patches added to say the 5.8.9 kernel for the
f31 - f33 distgit branches?

Is it still git add the patch, add to .spec, add a changelog
entry without a EVR added to the changelog entry and wait for it
to get picked up by the next f## kernel build ?

Note the reason why I'm asking is because the 5.8 kernels have a nasty
regression causing the builtin keyboard and touchpad to not work
on many Asus laptops.

As I'm not entirely sure how to add the patch fixing this, I will
send it to the list in a separate patch. It would be good if this
can get added to the Fedora 31-33 5.8 kernels ASAP. The fixes should
get added to the next 5.9-rc# release, so for 5.9 we should be good
but I will keep an eye on this to make sure.

Regards,

Hans
