I'm quite aware. Multiple parts of the userspace need to be updated to work for 6.1. In particular the on-target build support. I have 4 of the 6 architectures fixed now, and then will be looking into the rest of the support applications. It is much more than creating the branches, and booting a single board. While the -dev kernels are not as fully tested as the released reference ones, they are significantly tested to ensure sanity and core support across all architectures. > > BTW, linux-5.19 was EOL'ed at the end of last month.

I'm also aware of the -stable releases, EOL dates, etc. I sent the patch to update the default to 6.0, it never did get merged, but I haven't pursued it, as I'm going to 6.1 shortly.
