Linxu Kernel bug reports

[ZerBea]

As of today I have decided not to make any more bug reports on bugzilla
Also I have closed all my open bug reports.

I thought bugzilla was the central point of contact for bug reports.
Looks like this is not the case:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219040#c11

I would suggest everyone here to openly express their opinion regarding the behavior of such triggered individuals as that guy. I'll do it right now.

As an alternative, wireless bugs can be reported directly to the wireless mailing list. The entire procedure is explained here:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.19/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.html

e.g. for mt76:
From inside the Linux Kernel tree run this pearl script to identify the maintainer:
$ perl scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f <filename>

$ perl scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/Makefile
Felix Fietkau <[email protected]> (maintainer:MEDIATEK MT76 WIRELESS LAN DRIVER)
Lorenzo Bianconi <[email protected]> (maintainer:MEDIATEK MT76 WIRELESS LAN DRIVER)
Ryder Lee <[email protected]> (maintainer:MEDIATEK MT76 WIRELESS LAN DRIVER)
Shayne Chen <[email protected]> (reviewer:MEDIATEK MT76 WIRELESS LAN DRIVER)
Sean Wang <[email protected]> (reviewer:MEDIATEK MT76 WIRELESS LAN DRIVER)
Kalle Valo <[email protected]> (maintainer:NETWORKING DRIVERS (WIRELESS))
Matthias Brugger <[email protected]> (maintainer:ARM/Mediatek SoC support)
AngeloGioacchino Del Regno <[email protected]> (maintainer:ARM/Mediatek SoC support)
[email protected] (open list:MEDIATEK MT76 WIRELESS LAN DRIVER)

Than send your bug report.

I'm compiling kernel 6.11 to figure out if things are going better now.
I don't expect that everything is working flawless out of the box (especially in combination with BT and USB3), because the changes on mt76 and mac80211 are huge and the driver developers are very busy.
