CVE tracker: questions
Hi Ben,
during the past face to face TSC meeting that took place in N?rnberg, there were two questions about the CVE tracker you have done that would need some more details from you that what I provided back then.
Is the CVE tracker in a state that can be used by CIP Members?
If it is, under which conditions? Does it work for any kernel or needs to be tuned?
Can we advertise the CVE tracker in the coming events in Japan in July?
I would like to add the following questions
Is this a work you plan to maintain in the coming future?
Would it be valuable to somehow keep the outcome of the tracker in Gitlab so we can keep track of the patches that require attention, so the Kernel Maintenance team can also get involved?
Would it work for -rt ?
Best Regards

It currently only works for mainline and stable branches. I have an open issue to add support for CIP branches.

That would be fine with me.

So long as I'm working for CIP, yes.

Not currently, no. If and when I add support for CIP branches, I expect -rt branches to be supportable in the same way.
Ben.
