Hello Michael, hello Arne, hello *, I guess Arne just had this kernel version at hands - thank you, Arne. :-) To put an end to this topic: Unless something really, really, really terrible happens (looking at you, Intel!), I propose to stay with Linux 4.14.230 for Core Update 157 then, and make this our last release of the 4.14.x series. Looking forward to kernel 5.10.x ... :-) Thanks, and best regards, Peter Müller > Hello, > > What is the rationale for this patch with reference to this: > > https://lists.ipfire.org/pipermail/development/2021-April/009913.html > > -Michael > >> On 11 Apr 2021, at 20:38, Arne Fitzenreiter wrote: >> >> Signed-off-by: Arne Fitzenreiter >> --- >> config/kernel/kernel.config.x86_64-ipfire | 2 +- >> lfs/linux | 8 ++++---- >> 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/config/kernel/kernel.config.x86_64-ipfire b/config/kernel/kernel.config.x86_64-ipfire >> index 65c365c1b..c15fa8efc 100644 >> --- a/config/kernel/kernel.config.x86_64-ipfire >> +++ b/config/kernel/kernel.config.x86_64-ipfire >> @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ >> # >> # Automatically generated file; DO NOT EDIT. >> -# Linux/x86 4.14.229 Kernel Configuration >> +# Linux/x86 4.14.230 Kernel Configuration >> # >> CONFIG_64BIT=y >> CONFIG_X86_64=y >> diff --git a/lfs/linux b/lfs/linux >> index 86acc14f7..e6030bd49 100644 >> --- a/lfs/linux >> +++ b/lfs/linux >> @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ >> ############################################################################### >> # # >> # IPFire.org - A linux based firewall # >> -# Copyright (C) 2007-2020 IPFire Team # >> +# Copyright (C) 2007-2021 IPFire Team # >> # # >> # This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify # >> # it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by # >> @@ -24,8 +24,8 @@ >> >> include Config >> >> -VER = 4.14.229 >> -ARM_PATCHES = 4.14.229-ipfire0 >> +VER = 4.14.230 >> +ARM_PATCHES = 4.14.230-ipfire0 >> >> THISAPP = linux-$(VER) >> DL_FILE = linux-$(VER).tar.xz >> @@ -79,7 +79,7 @@ objects =$(DL_FILE) \ >> $(DL_FILE) = $(URL_IPFIRE)/$(DL_FILE) >> arm-multi-patches-$(ARM_PATCHES).patch.xz = $(URL_IPFIRE)/arm-multi-patches-$(ARM_PATCHES).patch.xz >> >> -$(DL_FILE)_MD5 = 9d4cf6e9ffff893d8a2ecea6a8c5a15b >> +$(DL_FILE)_MD5 = 9fceffba37032235767745a83b2f7ad2 >> arm-multi-patches-$(ARM_PATCHES).patch.xz_MD5 = a04b842733999abb818cabb0388572b8 >> >> install : $(TARGET) >> -- >> 2.25.1 >> >
