<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> @rpardini how safe / sane is pushing kernel 6.0.12 to CURRENT branch.
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> to stable repository
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> it works for me on HC4 / Bpi m5
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> yeah I've not ever tested apt upgrades but sincerely 6.0 is not that much different
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> I'd say it's generally safe
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> I'm all moved to 6.1 all around though. Remember, both 5.19 and 6.0 are not LTS
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> hopefully 6.1 is but I've not seen confirmation from Greg KH yet
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> 6.1 is tested working on N2/HC4, Radxa Zero, Zero2, VIM3L, VIM3, and @NicoD tested C2 and VIM2 as working too. We've some u-boot shit which I am addressing, but kernel wise it's looking great.
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> Oh and Tony tested Potato...
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> my suggestion is to wait a few point releases on 6.1 (maybe 6.1.3) and push it to current, not 6.0
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> i know. there is one stupid regression HC4, we lost SPI support
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> and banana m5 has sometimes boot problems with 5.19.y ... but as i mistakenly enable EDGE builds, which was 6.0.y until yesterdy, i didn't notice
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> hmm. are you sure? I tested this yesterday
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> not sure, i notice someone reporting it
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> but with k5.19.y
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> i am running mine from SD card, just updated to 6.0.
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> just confirmed. 6.1 has mtdblock, can write u-boot with armbian-install, and it works
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> since nothing changed ref that between 5.19 and 6.1, I think unlikely
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> hmm
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> ok, then perhaps some old u-boot variant
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> or who-know-which build of armbian from the internet
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> if that breaks it's the first thing I notice; I have an army of HC4's doing SPI -> SATA boot
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> ok, good to know its not an issue
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> what affected HC4 is the new hwmon pwm enable stuff
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> so this pwm works now?
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> we had patch to make it work in 6.0 and before
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> now no longer necessary, but works a bit differently
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> aha, btw. what do you think about this https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/4563
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> you ever used this thing
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> oh did for a little bit, it's only for paid-for $$ Github accounts I think?
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> nah, that's only if the repo is private. for public repos should work all the time
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> could be good idea.
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> i think it should work, yes
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> well, somehow i would like to speed up review process
