Our proposal was to update the ppc64-diag to available upstream/stable. So,
that the package could have all of the must have bug fixes and enhancements,
along with good have commits. The version was v2.6.7, when we opened the bug as
a place holder but the idea was to pick the latest available on the
day of cut-date.Which could have been v2.6.8, as v2.6.9 was release couple of
days back.
We were informed that as policy, the updated package would not be picked from
upstream. Whereas, we could cherry pick patch(s) which were required. We came
up will list of patches attached to the bugzilla, they can be classified into
two
1. Bug fixes for the bugs, which are seen in v2.6.7 and below.
2. Certain enchantments/functionalities, which are required for Little-Endian
platform to be supported.
