Hello,
This is Young Hsieh from Uber and currently I am in Uber infra team and in
charge of server system design. Nice to e-meet you! :)
We are working on AMD Milan platform with Debian, and notice there are some
patches for performance and security improvements, which are not implemented in
LTS kernels (4.14/4.19/5.4) yet. On our side, we prefer to use the general LTS
kernel release instead of a customized kernel, in case we will not align on
major fixes down the road. So would like to know if there is any plan to
backport these patches and if so, what is the timeline? Thanks a lot again for
any advice.
Easy: use 5.10. It's LTS and has all the patches you care about.
