Describe the problem you're observing
As I just upgraded to RDNA4 graphics, I would really like to use kernel 6.15, due to ongoing fixes by AMD. So I would really like to see a service release of OpenZFS for Linux providing 6.15 compatibility.
Describe how to reproduce the problem

Last commit is 2 weeks ago so I guess maybe they're on vacation or testing?
please use search upfront https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues?q=6.15 gives you https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/17229 https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/17371 https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/17393 there's also https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/discussions/17310 TLDR: same as with Arch, rolling releases and new hardware in general: ZFS isn't as fast as kernel developement - if you require ZFS for 6.15 you can take a look at experimental flag: https://github.com/n0xena/archzfs/pull/19 - but due to 2.3.2 not compatible with 6.15 this fails (at least on Arch) - so just wait for 2.3.3 with proper 6.15 support
as for 6.16: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/17443 - it's already worked on

WTF, I searched multiple time exactly looking for this and did not get it???
EDIT: Ok, found it, I had searched in the issues tab, so the search was limited to issues.

the key is to remove the default filters is:issue/is:pr and is:open so you search in both issues and PRs and all statuses unfortunate this doesn't include discussions
Is there a specific issue with 2.3 releases and kernel 6.15 or just in progress, as I'm a bit puzzled to see a 2.2 release for 6.15 first?
Just in progress. 2.2 is the LTS, so it gets very few changes. 2.3 is the stable series, lots more fixes and updates going into that, which takes longer.
#17468
well at least on Arch 6.15.2 there were quite a few fails https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/pull/594#issuecomment-2984907171

I have some doubts about validity of the test. Too many errors at once, while official CI for all tested OS'es came clean.
@amotin as discussed over at archzfs I did a new run after dealing with the dependencies: https://github.com/n0xena/archzfs/pull/26#issuecomment-2989653297
the libaio skip is due to the archzfs build environment doesn't pull in the required libaio before the autoconf/configure/make call and hence mmap_libaio doesn'T get build - have to look into this
the pyzfs fail is cause by ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cffi' - so I guess also an easy fix
the other three fails are nothin I worry about myself as I don't use these features but I guess looking into them and fixing the required stuff should be doable
overall the test now look way cleaner thanks to you - and it also got some nice input in the further development of the archzfs repo
