Hi, Mathieu, I tested by manually applying patch 2/5 on top of Fedora 36's installed /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen, and manually applying patch 1/5 to /usr/share/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib. It seems to generate grub.cfg menuentry-ies in the correct order. Note for patch 1/5, it's best practice to use "$@" with the double quotes to prevent word splitting of arguments. Doesn't really matter for that function at this time though.
