HiI would like to upload linuxversion 6.12.19-1 to unstable (with the aim that this should migrate to testing for trixie). It imports 6.12.18 and 6.12.19 on top of the current packaging. There are some packaging changes to improve (hardware) support: * Compress kernel with zstd where supported. (Closes: #1099722) This was asked primarily from the loong64 porters to unblock their FTBFS. * [amd64] sound/soc/amd/acp: Enable SND_AMD_ASOC_ACP70, SND_SOC_AMD_ACP_PCI and SND_SOC_AMD_LEGACY_MACH as modules (Closes: #1096006) * Enable IIO HRTIMER and SYSFS trigger. These are useful to do high-speed continuous and manual (or scripted) sensor reading respectively. * sound/pci/hda: Enable SND_HDA_SCODEC_CS35L56_I2C, SND_HDA_SCODEC_CS35L56_SPI, SND_SOC_CS35L56_I2C, SND_SOC_CS35L56_SPI, SND_SOC_CS35L56_SDW as modules The upload does not contain yet the fixes posted upstream for the netfs issues (#1099591, #1098698) for which I have raised the severity, I think it should be considered RC. For the release team, as my question in my last mail might have got lost: What are you expecting from the kernel-team in these stages of the freeze towards the trixie release from us? As for stable we usually try to keep the pace with new stable upstream series versions. Can you confirm this is still okay from you with the current approach or let us know where you want us to adjust? Is this simple heads-up advance notification still enough or do you need more time?
I think this is fine at this stage, but please add a cc to debian-boot as kernel updates affect d-i. I'll check with them and see if we need more advance notice, but for now this should suffice.
Cheers, Emilio
