# 6.3 is a non-LTS kernel that reached end-of-life upstream (linux-stable
# stopped at 6.3.13). genpatches' last bundle for this branch (-12) tracks
# stable through 6.3.9. ::gentoo no longer ships gentoo-sources-6.3.X,
# but alicef's release tarballs remain available on dev.gentoo.org, which
# is what this ebuild fetches.

# Last genpatches release for the 6.3 branch; tracks linux-stable through
# 6.3.9 (linux-stable itself ended at 6.3.13, so users on this slot are
# missing the final four stable releases — this is the upper bound of
# what's available without hand-cherry-picking from linux-stable).

# natalenko or the overlay maintainers. Note that 6.3 itself is EOL
# upstream, so no further linux-stable backports will arrive.

DESCRIPTION="Linux kernel: gentoo-sources base + curated pf-kernel patchset"
HOMEPAGE="https://pfkernel.natalenko.name/
https://dev.gentoo.org/~alicef/genpatches/"
# Vanilla 6.3 from kernel.org + Gentoo's genpatches (stable + non-stable)
# + our curated pf delta. The codeberg pf-kernel tarball is intentionally
# not fetched — its content is replaced by the much smaller curated
# patch in files/.
