Don't now. Never asked about it as I mostly care about the newer kernels :)
<thefossguy>
I see no reason for this branch to exist other than to send patches upstream...
<thefossguy>
I, as an avid ZFS user really like LTS kernels XD
<davidlt[m]>
As I never used ZFS this is not a problem for me ;)
<thefossguy>
You should give it a try. I can't live without it!
<thefossguy>
I heard FreeBSD folks got ZFS working on their RISC-V port
<davidlt[m]>
Yeah, exactly what I don't need right now :)
<davidlt[m]>
I typically run the latest kernels, and OpenZFS IIRC always lags slightly behind.
<thefossguy>
Though, I don't know much about the *BSD side of things in terms of actual hardware support. I assume that would be 3 to 4 quarters behind Linux.
<davidlt[m]>
I guess, if I would want ZFS I would run FreeBSD/TrueNAS to keep my life easy :)
<davidlt[m]>
Ah yeah, BSD might not support newer hardware.
<thefossguy>
davidlt[m]: Yep. That's **exactly why** I'm on Arch Linux. There's `linux-lts` for ZFS and I also don't have to rely on third party repos for new software.
<thefossguy>
davidlt[m]: When you need containerization, you go back to Linux. That's why I am running RHEL 9.X (idr the latest version but I do keep it up-to-date) on my Raspberry Pi
<thefossguy>
thefossguy: kABI is a cherry on top ;)
<thefossguy>
Not RISC-V related but a question about Fedora/RHEL
<thefossguy>
Shipping is 10x more than the actual thing :(

<thefossguy> "I was going to look at the..." <- So I was looking for when they would submit code to read from EEPROM. Looks like that is bundled with the GMAC patchset.
