I'd put that in the "you know what you're doing" category - just meant |
| 12 |
more as advice in general. |

Yeah, I had that headache for a while with amdgpu + zfs. Last |
| 15 |
longterm didn't support it well, and zfs takes time to catch up with |
| 16 |
new stable releases. So I was hopping around on stable releases and |
| 17 |
crossing my fingers a lot until 4.19. Fortunately amdgpu has settled |
| 18 |
down some - it was tending to panic quite a bit six months ago. |

Once 4.19 has support then you should be set - just stick with that as |
| 21 |
long as they continue to support it with fixes/etc. Hopefully they'll |
| 22 |
backport improvements until it is in mainline. |
