I understand. I guess the situation is a bit particular here. If the official kernel doesn't support it -- something Ubuntu-specific, not upstreamed -- it means Ubuntu FAN cannot be used: there is no way to even validate that these patches work on Ubuntu 24.04. The regression would be more on the kernel side :) >> and dropping these patches would stop the diversion with Debian? > > That's not a goal of our SRU process.

I just wanted to suggest that dropping these patches could be seen as a "safer approach" as it is closer to the upstream version, what is on Debian and other distributions. > The package does seem to include this in its autopkgtests > (debian/tests/testsuite.sh), so I think we have that coverage. Oh, I missed that, thank you for having checked!
