Modules fixes for v5.17-rc5

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

 



Linus,

So far only one fix has trickled through for modules. It is part of this
pull request. It's a minor build fix for when CONFIG_SYSFS=n. Let me
know if there are any issues with this.

And just small heads up for v5.18 I'm actually not seeing anything quite
ready so you may not see any pull request for me then except for fixes.
There is quite a bit of development work for modules though, but nothing is
quite ready, and I want to get **tons** of testing done for that. But do
expect substantial changes for v5.19 though. There is work which you might
see for a v5.19 from Aaron, Christophe, Vimal and Michal, in that order. I'm
Cc'ing them just as a heads up to them as well in so far as my expectations
and test requirements. During v5.18 I expect modules-next to carry all
the pending changes and test the hell out of them on linux-next though.

The following changes since commit 3593030761630e09200072a4bd06468892c27be3:

  tty: n_tty: do not look ahead for EOL character past the end of the buffer (2022-02-16 10:13:23 -0800)
