Hello,
Is there a way to report new kernel bugs while bugzilla.kernel.org is
down? I imagine many folks are now starting to have new reports stack up.
Also, is there an ETA on when bugzilla will be back available again?
Thanks,
Joe

Just send an e-mail to appropriate mailinglist and CC
responsible maintainer(s).
That's what many people prefer to bugzilla anyway.

One additional question. Is there a way to work and search existing
bugs while bugzilla.kernel.org is unavailable?

How do I know the responsible maintainer(s)? How do I know if the bug is
confirmed or accepted?

If you can figure out what subsystem is the likely source of the issue,
then you can check the MAINTAINERS file for the appropriate people and
mailing list. If there's a panic or oops, find the source file that is to
blame and use ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f <file>. Otherwise, just
report some unknown, untriaged error directly to
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org and be sure to cc Andrew Morton
<akpm@linux-foundation.org> who used to go through the kernel.org bugzilla
quite often and send bug reports in the right direction.

For regression add my address to CC. When bugzilla comes back, then I create
bug entry for regression.
