Changes: - Copied linux-5.7.nix from linux-5.6.nix - Add linux_5_7 and linuxPackages_5_7 - Update linux_latest to 5.7 Note: The kernel patch 'kernelPatches.export_kernel_fpu_functions."5.3"' is still applied as I copied the list from linux_5_7 (vs. linux_testing). This patch is probably still required for the ZFS performance. (cherry picked from commit 19b2efb)

I think it's also possible to find precedent for linuxPackages_latest
major updates on stable releases.
Thanks! |
Motivation for this change
My new laptop needs linux >= 5.7 for graphics support and release-20.03 only has linux <= 5.6. This backports
linuxPackages_latest
andlinuxPackages_testing
from master.This is a much smaller version of #91225, where nothing but the
*latest
and*testing
kernels are being updated, and none of the strictly unneeded configuration changes.Things done
