@davidrevoy this is something open source projects sadly do too often. Just recently, Blender changed how point lights were interpeted lately, without any discussion on older files or implications for non-photorealistic rendering (that's been fun back and forth with the devs and I)

I suggest letting the kernel devs know, I'd imagine they'd take this pretty seriously (since rule number 1 of Linux kernel development is "don't break the userspace")

@standingpad Thank you, that's also where my conclusion (the link in the last paragraph) is redirected.

Unfortunately, letting the kernel dev knowing about this is really hard (no 'issues' on Github, and the doc for reporting is .... well kernel.org/doc/html/latest/adm ). Doing a blog post was my best option.

www.kernel.orgReporting issues — The Linux Kernel documentation
@davidrevoy @standingpad Use email, that's how the kernel is developed and how bugs are reported, send it to the author of that commit and the mailing list listed in the MAINTAINERS file for the subsystem.

No need to file some ticket in some random web form with some odd account, email. It's simple, and easy (note, turn off HTML mode for it please.)

Good luck!

@gregkh Thank you about the formating tip (in plain text mode) I'll do my best!
