Bruce, Yocto kernel folks: Here is the next 5.2.x stable update "extension" primarily created for the Yocto project, as the next v5.2.x post-EOL release.
Another week, another month, another v5.2.x update! And once again, it is time for me to start reminding people that this maintenance is most likely to wind down in about three months time, so they have time to plan their own maintenance or migration path off of this v5.2.x update stream that I've been doing here. The content is from an audit of what went into the v5.4.30 to v5.4.35 releases - plus any upstream commits listed as Fixes: for backports in the above v5.4.x content, and a few upstream commits for recent CVE. There are just over 480 commits deployed here that were applicable for this v5.2.42 release. The platform code got some backports for get IRQ that enabled "optional" for when the IRQ is in fact just that - which enabled some pending warn fixes I'd previously declined. As a part of that, a generic warning was added for drivers who didn't use "optional" and hence there were quite a few commits for drivers needing to move to the optional version in order to avoid having new warnings. Just in case anyone is looking at the start of the series file and wondering what that is all about. I've put this 5.2.42 queue through my normal testing, with build tests on x86-64/32, ARM-64/32, PPC and MIPS, plus some static analysis and finally some sanity runtime tests on x86-64 (raw + qemu/KVM). Please find tag v5.2.42 (cce9d5e68ae756a8808046c4bf8a1d2dcb3a840e) as the current head of linux-5.2.y branch in the repo in the kernel.org directory here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux-5.2.y.git/?h=linux-5.2.y git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux-5.2.y.git for merge to standard/base in linux-yocto-5.2 and then out from there into the other base and BSP branches. For those who are interested, the evolution of the commits is here: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-5.2.git/ This repo isn't needed for anything; it just exists for transparency and so people can see the evolution of the raw commits that were originally selected to create this 5.2.x release. Paul.
