This is the start of the longterm review cycle for the 2.6.32.69 release.
All patches will be posted as a response to this one. If anyone has any
issue with these being applied, please let me know. If anyone is a
maintainer of the proper subsystem, and wants to add a Signed-off-by: line
to the patch, please respond with it. If anyone thinks some important
patches are missing and should be added prior to the release, please
report them quickly with their respective mainline commit IDs.
Responses should be made by Sat Dec 5 22:47:02 CET 2015.
Anything received after that time might be too late. If someone
wants a bit more time for a deeper review, please let me know.
NOTE: 2.6.32 is approaching end of support. There will probably be one
or maybe two other versions issued in the next 3 months, and that will
be all, at least for me. Adding to this the time it can take to validate
and deploy in some environments, it probably makes sense to start to
think about switching to another longterm branch. 3.2 and 3.4 are good
candidates for those seeking rock-solid versions. Longterm branches and
their projected EOLs are listed here :
https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html
The whole patch series can be found in one patch at :
https://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/longterm-review/patch-2.6.32.69-rc1.gz
The shortlog and diffstat are appended below.
Thanks,
