Hello, My name is Carla and I'm member of the Ubuntu laptop testing team.
I was asked to report a bug upstream on bugzilla.kernel.org.
As bugzilla.kernel.org is down, must I wait for it to be restored or is
there an alternative way to report a bug ?
Thank you.

The alternative is to report the bug here, CCing the appropriate
subsystem lists (and later filing the bug under bugzilla once it comes
back - if needed)

Even when bugzilla.kernel.org was functional, the better way to report
kernel bugs was widely regarded to post at LKML (and any appropriate
subsystem mailinglist). Many (?) developers consider bugzilla.kernel.org
to be a _tracking_ tool rather than a reporting tool. Some developers did
not like to interact with bugzilla.kernel.org at all.
I too think that bug reporting and bug tracking are not entirely the same,
and that LKML (or kernel subsystem mailinglists, respectively) are
usually preferable for bug reporting.
