Not much here this cycle, biggest thing is the removal of an old driver that never got any actual hardware support (esp32), and the second try to moving the tty ports to their own workqueues (first try was in 7.0-rc1 but was reverted due to problems) Otherwise it's just a small set of driver updates and some vt modifier key enhancements.

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 00:29:08 +0100

serial: pic32_uart: allow driver to be compiled on all architectures with COMPILE_TESTThis driver currently only supports builds against a PIC32 target, orwith COMPILE_TEST on MIPS. Now that commit 24cad1a22848 ("serial:pic32_uart: update include to use pic32.h from platform_data") ismerged, it's possible to compile this driver on other architectures.To avoid future breakage of this driver in the future, let's update theKconfig so that it can be built with COMPILE_TEST enabled on allarchitectures.Signed-off-by: Brian Masney Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260222-serial-pic32-v1-1-8fdbc0d0d334@redhat.comSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman List of files: /linux/drivers/tty/serial/Kconfig

serial: remove drivers for espressif esp32These drivers were added about 3 years ago, and depend on theXTENSA_PLATFORM_ESP32 config option which has never existed,so no device can actually use them.They can only be compiled with COMPILE_TEST.In a previous conversation [1], Greg suggested removing thedrivers, and Max, the original submitter of the drivers, agreeddue to a lack of foreseeable development.Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260308131412.1102749-1-julianbraha@gmail.com/ [1]Signed-off-by: Julian Braha Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260309122321.1528622-1-julianbraha@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman List of files: /linux/drivers/tty/serial/Kconfig
