This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled rtla: Fix consistency in getopt_long for timerlat_hist to the 6.12-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: rtla-fix-consistency-in-getopt_long-for-timerlat_his.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.12 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 6bf3ee049d6fd11286071919d0ae17b6f74d31eb Author: Gabriele Monaco <gmonaco@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Sep 26 16:34:17 2024 +0200 rtla: Fix consistency in getopt_long for timerlat_hist [ Upstream commit cfb1ea216c1656a4112becbc4bf757891933b902 ] Commit e9a4062e1527 ("rtla: Add --trace-buffer-size option") adds a new long option to rtla utilities, but among all affected files, timerlat_hist misses a trailing `:` in the corresponding short option inside the getopt string (e.g. `\3:`). This patch propagates the `:`. Although this change is not functionally required, it improves consistency and slightly reduces the likelihood a future change would introduce a problem.
