Hello,
According to me, kernel 5.6 is now "mainline" and stable.
Is there something wrong with 5.6 such LFS SVN-20200401
is not including the 5.6 family??
My own point of interest with 5.6 is the time_namespace
(for containers).
Is 5.6.2 too new to be considered for the (B)LFS project?
With early 5.6 versions, 5.6/5.6.1, the Intel Wireless driver
(IWLWIFI)
was broken. I think we're holding to see if any other
regressions
show
up under this release
Hmm I think from the thread on lfs-dev, that the kernel version
will be
updated when other packages need to be updated in lfs. It does
not
prevent users to update to recent kernels, of course... Maybe we
could
amend the note on the "All packages" page by telling to update to
the
most recent mainline version instead of the most recent 5.5.x
version.
I'll go ahead and make that change.
But I made that the latest stable version, not mainline.

My understanding of /www.kernel.org
mainline is 5.6
stable is 5.6.2
(5.5.15 is flagged stable too).
May be LFS could "jump" to 5.6.X
I don't plan on doing an update until April 15 or so. I'll update to
5.6.X then. In the meantime, the note in Chapter 3 should be sufficient.
