Hello,
This is Young Hsieh from Uber and currently I am in Uber infra team and in charge of server system design. Nice to e-meet you! :)
We are working on AMD Milan platform with Debian, and notice there are some patches for performance and security improvements, which are not implemented in LTS kernels (4.14/4.19/5.4) yet. On our side, we prefer to use the general LTS kernel release instead of a customized kernel, in case we will not align on major fixes down the road. So would like to know if there is any plan to backport these patches and if so, what is the timeline? Thanks a lot again for any advice.
Cheers,
