@Aissen @kernellogger The LTS kernels are not going away, please use them. It's just that you can not expect them to live for "forever".
The simplest solution is for you to demand support for your SoC and devices upstream, that gets rid of the issue of what kernel you are forced to use immediately. We did that decades ago for the "Enterprise" Linux market, and all of the problems of "we are stuck on this old kernel because the vendor never forward ported their code" instantly went away.

@Aissen @kernellogger Based on what I see today, in the wild, almost no one is actually using the old LTS kernels we provide today. So I really doubt this is going to change anything.

@fenruspdx @Aissen @kernellogger We already do this today, but no one seems to notice: https://github.com/cloudsecurityalliance/gsd-database
