With today's sync, we are delivering the latest in the 5.11 series (at least as of today), which is 5.11.6. With the 5.11 series, I've performed the following enablement in our config for new device and feature support:
- Enabled Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX)
- Enabled XFM protocol support for 802.1Q support
- Enabled CONFIG_DM_MULTIPATH_IOA. For more details, see https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/DM_MULTIPATH_IOA.html and https://documentation.suse.com/sles/15-SP1/html/SLES-all/cha-multipath.html (note, SUSE's documentation should really only be read up to the end of the "Understanding Multipath I/O" section, the rest is primarily related to SLES)
- Enabled RTL8153 ECM support
- Enabled Intel Alderlake, Elkhart Lake, and Lakefield PINCTRL
- Enabled Corsair PSU sensor support
- Enabled more sound ALSA SoCs
- Enabled AMD Sensor Fusion Hub HID and power management controller (CONFIG_AMD_PMC) support
- Enabled Intel integrated memory controller error detection and correction via CONFIG_EDAC_IGEN6
- Improved WIMAX support
- Improved Microsoft Surface support
- Enabled CIPS SWN (Service Witness Protocol) support
If you have any serious regressions with 5.11 compared to 5.10 series, I encourage you to post here. If you are uncertain, I ask that instead of immediately commenting, you follow our documentation linked below to check 5.10 (if possible, depending on your use of proprietary drivers) and perform more testing.

Keep the noise to a minimum and please refrain from "me too" comments on other people's remarks.
Thanks!
