wifi OK.   Overlapping stress tests ran to completion.
Bluetooth sound working eventually - TV soundbar paired and connected immediately but it took a lot of fiddling with pavucontrol before the device appeared as an option.  Playing Purcell via mplayer.

The only oddity with the desktop is the query on a red circle in the panel which remains even when media are set up and a specific mirror enabled.  Otherwise it works as expected.

description: |
  This kernel update is based on the upstream 5.1.20 and fixes atleast
  the following security issue:

  With Xen, virtual device backends and device models running in domain 0,
  or other backend driver domains, need to be able to map guest memory
  (either via grant mappings, or via the foreign mapping interface). For
  Linux to keep track of these mappings, it needs to have a page structure
  for each one. In PV dom0, a range of pfns are typically set aside at boot
  (“pre-ballooned”) for this purpose; for PVH and Arm dom0s, no memory is
  set aside to begin with. In either case, when more of this “foreign / grant
  map pfn space” is needed, dom0 will balloon out extra pages to use for this
  purpose. Unfortunately, in Linux, there are no limits, either on the total
  amount of memory which dom0 will attempt to balloon down to, nor on the
  amount of “foreign / grant map” memory which any individual guest can
  consume. As a result, a malicious guest may be able, with crafted requests
  to the backend, to cause dom0 to exhaust its own memory, leading to a host
  crash; and if this is not possible, it may be able to monopolize all of the
  foreign / grant map pfn space, starving out other guests (XSA-300).

  Other changes in this update:
  - kernel configs:
    * enable Full dynticks system (tickless) (NO_HZ_FULL)
    * enable CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU (mga#24701)
  - add kernel side support for temperature monitoring on Amd Ryzen 3000
    series (lm_sensors 3.5.0-2.1.mga7 or newer is also needed)

  For other upstream changes in this update, see the referenced changelogs.

  Note! This is the last update that is based on the upstream 5.1 series.
        Next update will be based on the upstream 5.2 series.
