Regressions? What regressions?

@oleksandr why didn't you catch this during rc stabilization?

@vbabka and why didn't @oleksandr join existing discussions about problems caused by the commit, one of which where I CCed Linus today:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/?q=0a3fe972a* (EDIT: add the "*" to the link if it's removed)

@vbabka I don't run -rcs and -stables, too risky.

@kernellogger Thanks for the pointers.

@vbabka

@oleksandr I understand wrt -stables. But for not running -rcs, boo! How can they (and the final release) get less risky if even skilled people like you don't run them?

@vbabka I tend to run the same kernels across the fleet I manage, including my wife's laptop. Do you want her to run -rc as well?

@oleksandr what if I do?

@vbabka @oleksandr i see, it's you guys who i should blame for my docker crashing in 6.19

@piggo @oleksandr docker? that's probably @brauner 's fault

@vbabka How rude, she's got things to do, after all!

@vbabka Docker? It's probably PEBCAK then.

@piggo @brauner

@oleksandr @vbabka Vlasta wants everyone to suffer. Me, you, our wives, our friends, everyone. He thinks it's more fun that way. I don't have a good argument why it isn't. :-(

@liskin What's even more disgusting, he's being paid for that! What else would you expect from the organisation with a reptiloid on its logo.

@vbabka

@oleksandr @liskin it's nonsense, I wouldn't recommend anything bad! The -rc kernels simply do WORKSFORME.

(most times)

@liskin @oleksandr also be glad you don't have children!

@kernellogger @oleksandr actually his biggest mistake was trying out 7.0 and not waiting for 7.1 for the upgrade as all the smart people do.

@vbabka @oleksandr @liskin Maybe mm-new is a better suggestion if they need more stability.

@vbabka @oleksandr @liskin

-EWORKSFORME

@vbabka @oleksandr @liskin tbh, I use -rc kernels and they work quite well for me, even on the desktop where I do gaming/multimedia stuff.

@oleksandr @vbabka @brauner your grandma is PEBCAK. It started segfaulting but after host downgrade to 6.18, all is fine

@piggo My grandma doesn't use Docker, she's normal.

@brauner @vbabka

@vbabka Smart people sit on 2.4.29.

@kernellogger

@ffmancera I cherry-pick fixes from -rc kernels manually, am I artisanal?

@vbabka @liskin

@vbabka Wait, clone() is broken, too?

@liskin

@oleksandr @vbabka intentionally

@oleksandr @vbabka @liskin I understand you do that on your job.. But do you do that for your own kernels too?

@ffmancera Yes.

@vbabka @liskin

@oleksandr @ffmancera @liskin you cherry-pick them to which base?

@vbabka Linus releases.

@ffmancera @liskin

@oleksandr @kernellogger I have ssh access to something with 2.4.34 with grsecurity

@vbabka See, it still works.
