Linux kernel patches Android changes: Android is one of the largest downstream consumers of our work. Our continuous integeration tests the Android trees with newer versions of LLVM to help catch any issues that will impact Android once they upgrade their version of LLVM, which can lag behind at times....

As a Linux kernel developer, I will often need to build and boot new kernels to hunt down issues or test new functionality for regressions. While it is possible to manually install these kernels on machines, it is easiest to use the distribution’s package manager, as the kernel does not need to be built on the machine it is being installed on. With .deb and .rpm-based systems, it is easy to build a kernel package within the kernel source itself, using the bindeb-pkg and binrpm-pkg targets respectively....

Linux kernel patches Boot fixes: These patches fix boot failures that we have seen in testing. In this case, it is a User Mode Linux fix, which we are looking to enable in our continuous integration setup, as it is useful for quick testing....

Linux kernel patches Miscellaneous improvements: These are series or patches that do not really fit into any of the other categories I typically use with my reports. Allow CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF5=y + CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y (v1) tools/resolve_btfids: Do not print any commands when building silently (v1) -Wenum-conversion: This warning occurs when one enumerated type is implicitly converted to another enumerated type, which is typically a bug, although it might not actually be a problem in practice if the used enum has the same value as the intended enum (which is the case here)....

Linux kernel patches Stable patches: The stable trees are the trees that most users consume so keeping them building and as warning and issue free as reasonable is important.

Linux kernel patches Android patches: Android is one of the biggest downstream consumers of our work. Making sure that it stays working is incredibly important so that it can reach real users.

Linux kernel patches Build errors: These are hard errors that appear for one reason or another. The first two are from a recent change in LLVM to avoid crashing the compiler (see the commit message for more details, I learned floating point literals exist in C)....
