It's a bit hard for a kernel to be "LTS" when it hasn't even had the chance to move out of the "normal" stable release process, right? :) Is there anything in your testing of 4.9 that you feel needs to be resolved before you would feel comfortable using it as a LTS kernel? How has it worked out for your platform and workload? Any warning flags that you feel would keep it from being a good LTS kernel? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
