BOINC detects CUDA and OpenCL, and BOINC perform work on GPU
  (sidenote:  I have told before i have had OpenPandemics COVID-19 work get calculation faults after being interrupted by user using computer, and I said that have stopped, but it simply comes and goes with previous as well as this kernel and nvidia.  Maybe it is just incompatible with my old GPU)


Hardware:
  My workstation "svarten": Mainboard: Sabertooth P67, CPU: i7-3770, RAM 16G, GM107 [GeForce GTX 750] using nvidia-current; GeForce 635 series and later, 4k display.  Disk&Filesystem: SSD with /boot/EFI and ext4 /boot, LUKS{LVM {swap, ext4 /home & / } and a spinner at /mnt/spinner


Tested:

  Plasma desktop; using Thunderbird, LibreOffice, Ktorrent, Nextcloud client, Firefox ESR, flatpak Firefox, flatpak Spotify, java program FriBOK, ... 
Stress test: While working with other things BOINC use all cores to 100%, videos do not stutter in Chromium, nor Firefox ESR but do in flatpak version (except, note to self: why do not this clip stutter? https://www.svtplay.se/video/33779850/einar-2002-2021)

 VirtualBox: Launched my usual MSW7pro-64, tests OK: bidirectional clipboard, shared folders write protected and not, USB2 memory stick read&write (using upstream extension pack), drag file from Dolphin to Windows Explorer, Windows update, video playing in Firefox and Chrome while CPU is heavily loaded.
(As before drag of file in Windows Explorer to Dolphin does not work, despite bidirectional drag is enabled and the cursor outside VirtualBox client window transforms to a green plus.)

Desktop and server kernels have been working fine on this Intel9 machine today.nvidia graphics.  Bluetooth works out of the box.  Virtualbox OK as well.

Server kernel also tested on an Intel7 machine with nvidia.  No regressions noted.

Tried  desktop and server kernels on Intel NUC10i7FNB, Intel Comet Lake UHD Graphics (i915).
Everything working as it should in Mate, including bluetooth, which needed no reconfiguration.  Tainted vlc worked fine in skinned mode once I remembered to install svlc.

Also OK mga8-64 in Thinkapd T510

64-bit Plasma, VirtualBox with W10 client. 
HW: i5 M540  Nvidia GT218M(NVC3100M) using Geforce 8100 to 415 driver.
No regression noted.  Suspend-resume works.

Hibernate fails: saves everything, according to log, but fail to shut off, and also restart dont read back what was saved.
Have never tried this before, this installation is new on a bought used laptop so i dont know if it is a regression or not. / in encrypted LVM, separate /boot

For another bug report. Another week.

description: |
  This kernel update is based on upstream 5.15.15 and fixes atleast the
  following security issues:

  A data leak flaw was found in the way XFS_IOC_ALLOCSP IOCTL in the XFS
  filesystem allowed for size increase of files with unaligned size. A
  local attacker could use this flaw to leak data on the XFS filesystem
  otherwise not accessible to them (CVE-2021-4155).

  An unprivileged write to the file handler flaw in the Linux kernel's
  control groups and namespaces subsystem was found in the way users have
  access to some less privileged process that are controlled by cgroups and
  have higher privileged parent process. It is actually both for cgroup2
  and cgroup1 versions of control groups. A local user could use this flaw
  to crash the system or escalate their privileges on the system
  (CVE-2021-4197).

  Lack of proper validation of user-supplied eBPF programs prior to executing
  them. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges
  and execute code in the context of the kernel (CVE-2021-4204).

  A use-after-free exists in drivers/tee/tee_shm.c in the TEE subsystem in
  the Linux kernel through 5.15.11. This occurs because of a race condition
  in tee_shm_get_from_id during an attempt to free a shared memory object
  (CVE-2021-44733).

  pep_sock_accept in net/phonet/pep.c in the Linux kernel through 5.15.8
  has a refcount leak (CVE-2021-45095).

  The ksmbd server through 3.4.2, as used in the Linux kernel through 5.15.8,
  sometimes communicates in cleartext even though encryption has been enabled.
  This occurs because it sets the SMB2_GLOBAL_CAP_ENCRYPTION flag when using
  the SMB 3.1.1 protocol, which is a violation of the SMB protocol
  specification. When Windows 10 detects this protocol violation, it disables
  encryption (CVE-2021-45100).

  kernel/bpf/verifier.c in the Linux kernel through 5.15.14 allows local
  users to gain privileges because of the availability of pointer arithmetic
  via certain *_OR_NULL pointer types (CVE-2022-23222).

  In addition to the upstream changes, we also have changed the following:
  - iwlwifi: mvm: check if SAR GEO is supported before sending command
  - select: Fix indefinitely sleeping task in poll_schedule_timeout()
  - ALSA: hda: Add AlderLake-N/P PCI ID
  - enable NF_TABLES_INET, NFT_REJECT_INET and NFT_FIB_INET (mga#29852)
  - disable CIFS_SMB_DIRECT on desktop kernels as it makes loading cifs
    deps fail on some setups (mga#29784)
  - disable unprivileged bpf by default to mitigate other potential security
    issues with bpf

  For other upstream fixes, see the referenced changelogs.

Same tests as comment 2 & comment 3

Tested on Foolishness, a Dell Inspiron 5100, P4, Radeon RV200 graphics, old Atheros-based wifi, 32-bit Xfce system using the desktop kernel.

No installation issues. After the reboot, loaded a spreadsheet into Libreoffice, played a video with Parole, visited some websites with Firefox. Youtube videos don't play well because of the limits of the hardware, no change there. Videos from mp4 files on the ssd play much better.

No issues noted.

On M8 hardware in a Vbox client, M8, Xfce, 32-bit
