Linux regressions report for mainline [2023-10-15]

From: Regzbot (on behalf of Thorsten Leemhuis)
Date: Sun Oct 15 2023 - 08:24:18 EST


Hi Linus. My list of unresolved regressions introduced during this cycle
got a lot shorter, as quite a few fixes for tracked issues found their
way into mainline over the past few days.

But there is one regression where things looked stalled despite the
following fix existing for a while:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230927055246.121544-1-xuanzhuo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

That fix was posted two and a half weeks ago (one day after the
regression linked in the patch description was reported) and got one ACK
one week ago; but apart for that nothing has happened afaics. Not sure
what's up there.

Ciao, Thorsten

Thanks for your attention, have a nice day!

Regzbot, your hard working Linux kernel regression tracking robot


P.S.: Wanna know more about regzbot or how to use it to track regressions
for your subsystem? Then check out the getting started guide or the
reference documentation:

https://gitlab.com/knurd42/regzbot/-/blob/main/docs/getting_started.md
https://gitlab.com/knurd42/regzbot/-/blob/main/docs/reference.md

The short version: if you see a regression report you want to see
tracked, just send a reply to the report where you Cc
regressions@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with a line like this:

#regzbot introduced: v5.13..v5.14-rc1

If you want to fix a tracked regression, just do what is expected
anyway: add a 'Link:' tag with the url to the report, e.g.:
