** Description changed: [SRU Justification] BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2061747 ========== linux-meta, linux-meta-unstable, linux-meta-oem-6.8 ========== [Impact] Starting from kernel v6.8, Intel demands the use of in-tree VSC driver instead of the out-of-tree dkms originated from https://github.com/intel/ivsc-driver. [Fix] The main fixes are in kernel & dkms packages. This adds ivsc-modules to Provides list of linux-image-generic as other built-in linux-modules-foo packages do. [Test Case] The generated meta package linux-image-generic should then provides "ivsc-modules". [Where problems could occur] Meta package changes only. No real effect but in package dependency. [Other Info] While the ivsc-dkms obsoletion only happens for kernel >= 6.8, this will only be nominated for Unstable/Noble/OEM-6.8. - ========== ipu6-drivers ========== + ========== ipu6-drivers, linux, linux-oem-6.8 ========== [Impact] Starting from kernel v6.8, Intel demands the use of in-tree VSC driver instead of the out-of-tree dkms originated from https://github.com/intel/ivsc-driver. [Fix] The in-tree vsc driver as of v6.8 still needs a few fixes to achieve the same support level to launch Intel IPU6 Camera devices. Commit 1,3, and 4 are to add supported devices and platforms. Commit 2 resolves an issue after resumed. [Test Case] This is supposed to work together with the updated dkms, which shall also be built along with the kernel itself as linux-modules- ipu6-<variant>. Install the corresponding kernel/modules packages and test camera functions. [Where problems could occur] While this is the first time we switch to in-tree VSC driver, and the out-of-tree driver is not aligned at the time of transition and probably never will, the provided functions and verified stability issues may vary. [Other Info] The dkms is created to be compatible of multiple kernel versions, yet the in-tree vsc driver transitioning should only happen for kernel >= v6.8. That is, oem-6.8, noble and linux-unstable will be nominated. ========== original bug description ========== Starting from kernel v6.8 (yet from the code diff it's v6.6), Intel demands the use of in-tree IVSC drivers instead of out-of-tree dkms from https://github.com/intel/ivsc-driver.
