New kernel support like 6.1.0

[congzhangzh]

Hi folks,

when will the new kernel be supported like 6.1.0?

Or do you have plan to upstream and when? Or can you provide the guide to patch the latest kernel?

Tks,
Cong

[congzhangzh]

as a Debian bookworm release, this is something needed now:)

Any update on this? Paging @NitinGote since you're the most active maintainer here.

Which platform are you looking for 6.1 support? if its Arc then I suggest using 6.2 kernel as its enabled in base kernel itself
We have a plan for 6.1 backport but it will take some time.

[nyanmisaka]

@ayazahma Thx for the response. DG1 is our target platform and it still requires the DKMS kernel to utilize media features.

@nyanmisaka DG1 is not being supported and tested with i915 backported OOT driver.

[nyanmisaka]

@ayazahma That's interesting. DG1 is working fine with this backported OOT driver.

Add the developers from media-driver suggested us to do so, since DG1 failed using media in upstream driver.

That seems cool, can you give some upstream repo&path direction, maybe I can build the kernel myself if it's not supported by Debian :) @ayazahma

maybe something wrong? I can not find any debug_eu related kernel config, I provide one config file which debian linux 6.3 kernel use @ayazahma
config-6.3.0-1-amd64.txt

or I miss something?

need something like: https://github.com/intel-gpu/intel-gpu-i915-backports/blob/a9ef296bbaf6167d3c7bfbed73211877f41f7e1e/defconfigs/i915#L5C1-L5C25 ?

[ayazahma]

Hello @congzhangzh ,
debug_eu is not part of Arc upstream, this will be only supported via Out of tree driver, We are working to add support of 6.2

[congzhangzh]

I use debian bookworms:)

[congzhangzh]

I use debian bookworms:)

which use kernel 6.1, and backport will be 6.3:) @ayazahma

[ayazahma]

We support and test Ubuntu 22.04 hwe kernel which has been moved to 6.2 , and we are working to add support for that.
6.1 LTS will be compliable but since Testing is not being done so we cannot commit to support 6.1 lts version.

Cool, seems 6.1 should be ok, tks:)
