Okay, there are 151 bugs that syzbot saw on the mainline Linux kernel in the last 7 days (90.1% with reproducers). Of those, 59 were reported over 3 months ago (89.8% with reproducers). Of those, 12 were reported over a year ago (83.3% with reproducers).
No opinion on whether those are small/medium/large numbers, in case it would hurt someone's feelings.
These numbers do *not* include bugs that are still valid but weren't seen on mainline in last 7 days, e.g.:
- Bugs that are seen only rarely, so by chance weren't seen in last 7 days. - Bugs only in linux-next and/or subsystem branches. - Bugs that were seen in mainline more than 7 days ago, and then only on linux-next or subsystem branch in last 7 days. - Bugs that stopped being seen due to a change in syzkaller. - Bugs that stopped being seen due to a change in kernel config. - Bugs that stopped being seen due to other environment changes such as kernel command line parameters. - Bugs that stopped being seen due to a kernel change that hid the bug but didn't actually fix it, i.e. still reachable in other ways.
