Hi,
As I am just processing the Leap Update kernel.
1. Do we want to keep the kABI stable?
Currently no guarantee about it, just like openSUSE-13.2. But yeah we should keep it as much as possible, at least for popular 3rd party KMPs like Nvidia. I'm actually thinking of providing the kABI set only partially, not covering all.
I see this diff currently in -default: -ksym(default:pci_disable_msi) = 3219b64b -ksym(default:pci_disable_msix) = 588a518 +ksym(default:pci_disable_msi) = 345bfdda +ksym(default:pci_disable_msix) = 67e3b2c4 -ksym(default:pci_enable_msi_range) = 9ced3242 -ksym(default:pci_enable_msix) = d5c6189f -ksym(default:pci_enable_msix_range) = 4a1554ac +ksym(default:pci_enable_msi_range) = 50b78261 +ksym(default:pci_enable_msix) = c21e9f +ksym(default:pci_enable_msix_range) = fef96feb -ksym(default:pci_msi_vec_count) = 9de2639f -ksym(default:pci_msix_vec_count) = 5b24f2ce +ksym(default:pci_msi_vec_count) = 70960234 +ksym(default:pci_msix_vec_count) = 5d290135 -ksym(default:pci_restore_msi_state) = d89dbc38 +ksym(default:pci_restore_msi_state) = d5774c0e
Although I do not know how much modules would use these apis.
I guess these are no big issues, but better to check with it.
2. Updating kmps together
For 13.1 and 13.2 I have to update the kmps together with the kernel, but it seems we switched back from uname-r requires to ksym requires again, so it seems unnecessary.
Yeah, that's my understanding too. Maybe Michal knows better about the current situation. Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
