Reporting Kernel Bugs
Hello,
Is there a way to report new kernel bugs while bugzilla.kernel.org is down? I imagine many folks are now starting to have new reports stack up.
Also, is there an ETA on when bugzilla will be back available again?
Thanks,
Joe

Just send an e-mail to appropriate mailinglist and CC responsible maintainer(s).
That's what many people prefer to bugzilla anyway.

One additional question. Is there a way to work and search existing bugs while bugzilla.kernel.org is unavailable?

Nothing official right now as far as I know.

How do I know the responsible maintainer(s)? How do I know if the bug is confirmed or accepted?

If you can figure out what subsystem is the likely source of the issue, then you can check the MAINTAINERS file for the appropriate people and mailing list. If there's a panic or oops, find the source file that is to blame and use ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f <file>. Otherwise, just report some unknown, untriaged error directly to [email protected] and be sure to cc Andrew Morton <[email protected]> who used to go through the kernel.org bugzilla quite often and send bug reports in the right direction.

For regression add my address to CC. When bugzilla comes back, then I create bug entry for regression.
