Works.
Default & performance tests pass (KVM)
Works fine here, fixes a bug I had where a suspended system with ethernet connected would flood the network.

This update has obsoleted kernel-5.19.4-300.fc37, and has inherited its bugs and notes.
This is still good!
+1 good

This and every kernel after 5.19.2-300 fail to boot on my system with "Failed to switch root: Specified switch root path '/sysroot' does not seem to be an OS tree. os-release file is missing."
How can I debug this problem?
[ 5.107016] gtw systemd[1]: Reached target initrd-switch-root.target - Switch Root. [ 5.108528] gtw systemd[1]: Starting initrd-switch-root.service - Switch Root... [ 5.120164] gtw systemctl[601]: Failed to switch root: Specified switch root path '/sysroot' does not seem to be an OS tree. os-release file is missing. [ 5.121629] gtw systemd[1]: initrd-switch-root.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE [ 5.121902] gtw systemd[1]: initrd-switch-root.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. [ 5.131371] gtw systemd[1]: Failed to start initrd-switch-root.service - Switch Root.
Ha!
Found the problem. My system is btrfs with two subvolumes, /root and /home, and /sysroot is mounted with / instead of -o subvol=root. At failure time, I unmounted /sysroot and remounted it properly with -o subvol=root and now the boot sequence resumed without further error. I guess this may be a problem with the initrd? Anyway all kernels after 5.19.2 fail to boot with this bug.
@gtwilliams you just explained how it is not a kernel problem. I am guessing if you recreated your initramfs for 5.19.2 it would fail in the same way. Might be worth tracking down what changed there though, dracut or systemd are likely culprits. Updates on those packages often appear as kernel issues because an initramfs doesn't get regenerated when those packages are updated, so any problems they cause with the initramfs don't appear until your next kernel update unless you happen to regenerate the initramfs for other reasons.
Thank you @jforbes. Sorry for the noise.

Cachedrop is racey, particularly on lower end hardware. I am not concerned with cachedrop failures.
