Thanks for the feedback. I understand that is the normal way to proceed at this point in the schedule. It doesn't really impact me a lot personally as I build my own kernels anyway. Given there are not so many users on this architecture, is it feasible to take a more do-or-die approach, to try and put that f33 kernel in there and if it doesn't come together, f34 is simply released without any ppc64le? The upside is that if it does work, all those new GPUs will be working, plug and play. I'm talking about all the new RX 6800 cards and also the previous generation, RX 5700 and friends. If f34 is status quo, 64k kernel, people have to either: a) use a GPU that is much older now, like Radeon RX580 Polaris, or b) compile a kernel with 4k, or c) download a kernel with 4k from somebody I don't mind too much whether it is f34 or f35 and I understand you probably have higher priority things to do at this point in the release cycle.
