This sounds very interesting to me, modulo final impact on the ML - overall load is severely increased since the LLM era, while the maintainers pool not so much. A few notes on top of my head: - the amount/rate of reports is critical. The higher the rate, the better need to be the reproducer and the suggested patch. - the crash log should include the decoded stack trace. - IIRC syzbot reports sharing is [always] human moderated/limited/controlled. I think that is the correct default and I hope it should be possible for you, too. - it's not entirely clear to me who exactly is 'you' and would appreciate more info about that. - it would be great to discuss this topic in person, i.e. in the upcoming NetDev. Thanks, Paolo
