taking back  for now as 5.12.3 is about to land, and some regression fixes are needed...

Assignee: qa-bugs => tmb

Great. Just as I got things all set up to test it. Test system updated, old kernels cleared out, etc.

In particular, I'm interested in if our present M8 dkms-rtl8192eu will build and work properly with the 5.12 kernel. If not, then we should probably update it.

Oh, well - another time. While I wait, what would be the easiest way to know if the build was successful? Would booting the first boot of the new kernel with "splash quiet" disabled be sufficient?

well, nothing stops you to test the 5.12.2 if you want :)

as for if it builds, after the kernel is installed, check "dkms status" to se if its gotten status "installed" for 5.12 series kernels...

Must not be. I booted three or four times, and every time I see a notice on the plymouth screen that the rtl8192eu driver is building, and when it finally finishes up the boot, the network Center doesn't even show wifi as an option.

So, it would appear that the rtl8192eu driver will need to be updated for the 5.12 kernel.

Other than that, I don't see any problems. i5-2500, Intel motherboard, Intel graphics, 64-bit Plasma system. Normal connection is via Ethernet, but was disabled for this test. Worked fine when it was enabled again.

5.12.4 is now ready for tests...

Sigh,

turns out there is some iommu regressions in 5.12.4 causing some systems to
hang on boot... so more fixes are needed...

heh,
checking again turns out I already patched our 5.12.4 :)
