Subject: Linux regressions report  for mainline [2023-06-18]

Hi Linus. Things look mostly normal on the regression front. But as we
are nearing the final a few more words from my side than usual:

* I already mentioned in an earlier mail that there is a series of mm
reverts in next where my brain said "hmmm, Andrew merged those more than
a week ago to mm-hotfixes-unstable and -rc7 is due today; I don't see a
PR from him and wonder if these revert are something that better should
be in rc7 to help preventing a rc8?" so I thought I mention it here so
that you can take a look yourself if you got curious:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230609081518.3039120-1-qi.zheng@linux.dev/
(for the backstory see the two links in that mail)

* it's afaics nothing that will bother many people, but switching to
asynchronous probe broke the Dragonboard 845c (SDM845). People are still
discussing how to properly fix this:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAMi1Hd1avQDcDQf137m2auz2znov4XL8YGrLZsw5edb-NtRJRw@mail.gmail.com/
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/fbe5138f-fe97-11ee-a14a-4bb447c0972a@linaro.org/

* Currently looks a lot like a regression in 9p that causes MPTCP tests
to be unstable won't be fixed within the next week or two:
https://lore.kernel.org/regressions/855a232a-76d3-7e7b-b2b5-2ebc41bcadd6@tessares.net/
https://lore.kernel.org/regressions/CAFkjPTnAV6Rngwn6voCF332CX%2BeUyeJd7U0GcYn9BbkBqcTkHA@mail.gmail.com/

* a tpm/ppc/kexec issue reported a few days ago is investigated:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/99B81401-DB46-49B9-B321-CF832B50CAC3@linux.ibm.com/

* for completeness: I expect you will get "tick/common: Align tick
period during sched_timer setup" from the tip folks today.

Ciao, Thorsten

P.S. Sorry, I didn't got around to send a regression report last week, I
was on a short vacation and came back home one day later than expected.

Hi, this is regzbot, the Linux kernel regression tracking bot.

Currently I'm aware of 6 regressions in linux-mainline. Find the
current status below and the latest on the web:

Bye bye, hope to see you soon for the next report.

Thanks for your attention, have a nice day!

  Regzbot, your hard working Linux kernel regression tracking robot


P.S.: Wanna know more about regzbot or how to use it to track regressions
for your subsystem? Then check out the getting started guide or the
reference documentation:

https://gitlab.com/knurd42/regzbot/-/blob/main/docs/getting_started.md
https://gitlab.com/knurd42/regzbot/-/blob/main/docs/reference.md

The short version: if you see a regression report you want to see
tracked, just send a reply to the report where you Cc
regressions@...ts.linux.dev with a line like this:

#regzbot introduced: v5.13..v5.14-rc1

If you want to fix a tracked regression, just do what is expected
anyway: add a 'Link:' tag with the url to the report, e.g.:

Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/30th.anniversary.repost@klaava.Helsinki.FI/
