Linux stable inclusion question

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

 



Hi,

I'm writing this mail to ask one question about Linux stable inclusion,
I would appreciate if you can give me some hints.

As our known:
Grey KH is maintainer of 3.4 stable tree,
Paul is maintainer of 2.6.34 stable tree,
Willy is maintainer of 2.6.27 stable tree.

Is there have any possibility some stable patches merged into 3.4 stable tree,
but _missed_ in 2.6.34 and 2.6.27 stable tree? since each stable tree is maintained
by different person.
(the stable patches here I mean could applied to each stable tree correctly)

The reason of why I want to confirm this is the company may have many different
kernel version running in different products, each product want its to be
stable enough, so they will follow community stable released by own kernel version
maintainer(example stable 2.6.34 released by Pual), but they have concern if this will
miss some stable patches from other stable version(example stable 3.4 released by Grey),
which released by another stable maintainer.

This question might to be common in big company which have many different kernel version running.

Thanks very much.
