Hi Thimo,

As I mentioned in my previous message, I submitted the patches to the Ubuntu kernel mailing list for SRU.

These patches have now gotten 2 acks [1][2] from senior kernel team members, and the patches have now been applied [3] to the 4.15, 5.4, 5.8 and 5.11 kernels.

This is what is going to happen next. Next week, between the 31st of May and 4th of June, the kernel team will build the next kernel update, and place it in -proposed for testing.

As soon as these kernels enter -proposed, we need to install and test Raid10 in these new kernels as much as possible. The testing and verification window is between the 7th and 18th of June.

If all goes well, we can mark the launchpad bug as verified, and we will see a release to -updates around the 21st of June, give or take a few days if any CVEs turn up.

The schedule is on https://kernel.ubuntu.com/ if anything were to change.

I will write back once the next kernel update is in -proposed, likely early to mid next week. I would really, really appreciate it if you could help test the kernels when they arrive in -proposed, as I really don't want to introduce any more regressions.

Thanks,
Matthew
