So nothing all that exciting happened, and while I was tempted a
couple of times to do an rc8, there really wasn't any reason for it.

Just as an example, Sasha Levin used KASan and found an interesting
bug in paravirtualized spinlocks, but realistically it's been around
forever, and it's not even clear that it can really ever trigger in
practice. We'll get it fixed, and mark it for stable, and tempting as
it was, it wasn't really a reason to delay 3.19.

And the actual fixes that went in (see appended shortlog) were all
fairly small, with the exception of some medium-sized infiniband
changes that were all reverting code that just wasn't ready.

So it's out there - go and get it. And as a result, the merge window
for 3.20 is obviously also now open.

3.20? How high are we going to count before it's time to consider 4.0?

Hi,

some personal notes on this release.

Several warnings and call-traces which I saw in Linux-next (upcoming
v3.20) turned out to be also issues in v3.19.

[1] aio: annotate aio_read_event_ring for sleep patterns

[2] tracing: Add condition check to RCU lockdep checks
[3] x86/tlb/trace: Do not trace on CPU that is offline

Some words to [1]:
Honestly people should reply with pointing to a fix if I give them my
precious life-time.
By accident I found the fix when gasping over the last changes to v3.19.

I could spent some more time on "how to test a linux-kernel?", but
there should come clear words from experienced maintainers and/or
"father of Linux".
Personally, I test with my kernel-config and want to have a quick
feedback if it's "good".
Thus I used to run LTP "lite" script on my "rc" and "-next" kernels.
In case of filesystems fio [4] helped me to trigger some bugs
(replaced for me xfstests).
I am not sure if Documentation directory contains hints especially in
the topic of "testing a Linux kernel".

It's interesting to see "kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@intel.com>"
[5] as an author of patches :-).
IOW that beast helped to trigger a lot of "build" bugs - my big respect!

Nevertheless, I prefer to run any of my kernels on bare metal.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
- Sedat -

If linux-next is anything to go by, v2.20 could be the smallest release
in a long time.
