Hans de Goede: IPU6 camera support is broken in kernel 6.11.11 / 6.12.2-6.12.4
Unfortunately an incomplete backport of IPU6 DMA handling changes has landed in kernel 6.11.11.This not only causes IPU6 cameras to not work, this causes the kernel to (often?) crash on boot on systems where the IPU6 is in use and thus enabled by the BIOS.Kernels 6.12.2 - 6.12.4 are also affected by this.

Software Freedom Conservancy ☛ Linux banned Russian contributors. Does my FOSS project need to worry about U.S. Sanctions? [Ed: Coming from the SFC, whose chief tamples over eastern European women, underpaying them for PR purposes and sometimes enabling trafficking involuntarily. The nasty mobster, an SFC associate who attacks the FSF and serially defaming key FSF people, is a transphobe himself. It's good that on the Web people can archive evidence of his defamation and transphobia.]
Since the GNU/Linux project removed a number of entries from the MAINTAINERS file, all of whom were putatively Russian, in October, we've been receiving questions about U.S. sanctions against Russia and what, if anything, we should do about them. As I explain below, our position is that such drastic action, though defensible, is unnecessary.
