Good day all,
As discussed in the meeting yesterday I have started a new gitHub repository [1] to host the perf-opencsd kernel. Right now it has all the same kernel branches as found on the openCSD repository. I have also added a small wiki that gives people a little bit of information on the repository itself. Note that the openCSD repository hasn't been modified yet and that *everything* in the perf-opencsd is currently considered experimental. I am sharing this early to give people a chance to comment on the structure, naming and whatever they want to see modified.
Regards, Mathieu
Hi Mathieu,
It may be worth mentioning on the wiki that the 4.x branches are snapshots of state at that time, and that we are not backporting patches to earlier kernels.
There's been a few instances of users picking the branch closest to their favorite kernel version and expecting everything to work the same as master.
Regards
Mike

FWIW, making them tags instead of branches might also help alleviate some of that confusion.
Thanks,
