Hi!
We are getting closer to a release, here is the status as I see it.

Blockers:

* thp01 failing on newer kernels
- I'm waiting for v4 from Ritchie

* utimensat01 failing on stable kernels
- That thread on ML is kind of stuck,
I guess that we will have to accept
both errors for some range of kernels

Nice to have:

* The clone09 patch to disable it on old kernels looks sane to me
- I will merge that one

* CVE synchronization library
- depends if Ritchie can fix it fast enough

* The .needs_rofs patchset looks good to me as well I guess that it's safe enough to be included in the release as well

Is there anything else I've missing?

Yes, thanks for this. It unblocks a bunch of tests for us in Android. I'll respond with a small list to your question in the patch thread.

FWIW, I will work to merge the release and report any new, discovered failures on Android and track to fix it post-release. If you want me (us) to do the same on an -rc, let me know.

In reply to Cyril Hrubis

Hi!
Here is a status update for the release:

o the cve patchset will not make it

o I tested the utimensat patch I've done and it seems to work fine
- it would be nice if anybody else could have a look before it gets commited

o the cpuset should be considered for merge as well

Other than that I do not see any blockers.

I would like to release LTP on Friday once the two outstanding issues are fixed. Is that OK with everyone?
