didn't manage that for our latest SLES product! For openSUSE just forget about that!
All you need is a stable aPi, then you can work out the build problems with plenty of time left before final release, and when GM is done all you need is to trigger a rebuild
I believe the kernel aPi has been relatively stable. If there are late changes to it, then something is seriously wrong with the release process
kABI not API. We're talking about KMPs here. That's all about politics in kernel development here. Always try to break kABI (also API if possible) to make things difficult for 3rd party modules. Especially for modules which use binary blobs. Best regards, Stefan Public Key available ------------------------------------------------------ Stefan Dirsch (Res. & Dev.)
