possible regression in vanilla-sources-6.1.46

ref. https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1165014.html

Hi, I made the above post a few weeks ago. After lots of experiments, I found my system works well with "vanilla-sources-6.1.41" and "vanilla-sources-6.1.42" but still fails with the same IO error with "vanilla-sources-6.1.46".

Is there a way to find out what changed between 6.1.41 and 6.1.46? I tried "diff", but it lists hundreds of file changes.

Also, if it is an upstream bug, how can I report this?

Thanks

If you want to locate the kernel change that causes your problem, see the wiki article on bisecting the kernel. Note that you will have to get the entire kernel source tree (including history) from git, not just vanilla-sources.

When you have located the module, look in the MAINTAINERS file in your kernel source directory (probably /usr/src/linux) for the appropriate component, and reading its introduction to determine what the entries mean.

Thanks a lot. I updated the bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/914071 with the bisect.log.
