+Q: Are all networking bug fixes backported to all stable releases?
|
|

|
|
|
+A: Due to capacity, Dave could only take care of the backports for the last
|
|
|
+ 2 stable releases. For earlier stable releases, each stable branch maintainer
|
|
|
+ is supposed to take care of them. If you find any patch is missing from an
|
|
|
+ earlier stable branch, please notify stable@vger.kernel.org with either a
|
|
|
+ commit ID or a formal patch backported, and CC Dave and other relevant
|
|
|
+ networking developers.
