This is the start of the longterm review cycle for the 2.6.32.71 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 Thu Mar 10 16:29:59 CET 2016. 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: this is the very last 2.6.32 release, there will be no more after. In theory there is no reason to deploy this release unless you're still in the process of validating a new kernel. Kernel 3.2 is an excellent upgrade which still has more than two extra years to live. This release candidate was tested on the following platforms : ARCH | CONFIGURATION --------+----------------------------------- | allmodconfig other-config x86_64 | build:OK boot:OK i386 | build:OK - armv5 | - build:OK The whole patch series can be found in one patch at : https://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/longterm-review/patch-2.6.32.71-rc1.gz The shortlog and diffstat are appended below.
