You can certainly do that. And that should work.
It'll likely be easier to cherrypick from stable/ once things are merged
(especially if you keep the merge order).
OK, so it seems answer is no (even if it applies almost cleanly).
I'll wait a few day ands try to merge all the relevant commits from 14-
stable.
Thanks.
Hello again.
Since this has landed in 14-STABLE, I tried this merge for fun.
To be clear: I applied to 14.2 all your commits from 14-STABLE after
14.2 was released.
This almost went cleanly and I had only one little thing to fix in order
to be able to compile.
System came up perfectly and, after very brief and insufficient testing,
still seems to work.
Then I set compat.linuxkpi.80211.hw_crypto=1.
First strange thing: "ifconfig wlan0" output doesn't differ; it' still
says "54Mbps" and "11g".
WiFi doesn't seem to work properly, as I cannot even ssh into the
machine (hangs after some startup messages).
Also I started seeing a lot of messages that invite me to report to PR
274382.
I'll eventually try in other networks, if I can.
Fine, this was just a test for fun.
Either I did something wrong or it just can't work on 14.2.
If it's the latter, I can wait for 14.3.
Now, the real question: are you interested in such reports in 274382?
Given the "unofficial" (to say the least) state of my kernel, I'm not sure.
bye & Thanks
av.
