Driver mt7921e bug when reload your pc

There is a documented bug with the driver mt7921e when you reload your computer il make a kernel panic

This issue has been corrected in kernel > 5.14.0-79.22.1
where can we ask to backport this fix to our almalinux 9 kernel ?

mt7921e is not enabled in the RHEL (therefore AlmaLinux) 9 kernel. I wonder how it would affect the boot. Can you provide a reference link to the bug?

Sorry, I was looking at something else. mt7921e is indeed enabled in el9.

Since AlmaLinux is a rebuild project of RHEL, feature-for-feature and bug-for-bug, the patch must come from upstream.

One suggestion I make is to ask ELRepo to provide a kmod package for the driver. It can be built from the source code that has been fixed for the referenced bug.

occurs only if you reboot your pc without power him off

transmit to elrepo sauron-le-noir is my nickname :wink:
