Surely there are _some_ configuration changes > in 5.6? Hence the "rough" patch. I honestly don't feel solid on all the configuration changes that need to happen, so haven't been particularly thorough on auditing those. Running through "make oldconfig" prompted me with many options about things I didn't really have a good grasp of, so the 5.5 changes at essentially just the 5.4*.conf copied to 5.5*.conf, and applying the copying the resulting .config from building the kernel into git... I could do the same for 5.6 again blindly taking the new defaults... or if someone could help with auditing the config updates, that would be great! FWIW, also boot-tested linux-libre-arm64-generic with 5.6 as well. live well, vagrant --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEARYKAB0WIQRlgHNhO/zFx+LkXUXcUY/If5cWqgUCXoOBbQAKCRDcUY/If5cW qhLZAQC60AWxzb6ttePx9kU2bdO2oFGfoRXyJKfI+tVv9+k53AEA2K6UG0fPqcHW xWiSCmcJtS49izKG5fLpepTd3IfztgQ= =VtRe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
