Works for me.. I have been running the 6.2.x kernels since the test week started with no issues noticed. The enabled Default and Performance tests had all passed OK.

With Kernel 6.2.x my 01:00.0 Wireless controller [0d40]: Intel Corporation XMM7560 LTE Advanced Pro Modem (rev 01) stops working with following errors: e.g. [ 33.004399] iosm 0000:01:00.0: ch[1]: confused phase 2
I filed a bug report last week https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2175487 but noone responded sadly
I also tired to contact linuxwwan@intel.com but have also not heared anything from them. Maybe this downvote triggers an investigation?

Works.

Not sure if it's kernel related or not, but one of my machines started spitting this message out on boot with the 6.2.x kernels, but seems to be working fine otherwise. The other machines I've got 6.2.6 running on are working without problems. kernel regression tests pass.
Seems to be working OK in a VirtualBox VM. Regression tests passing.
Works great on Lenovo T480! LGTM! =)

The instructions you get to from the Fedora Magazine article didn't work for me. It didn't work with the wildcard '' when installing. I had to use the full filename. Then it installed and worked fine. This is what didn't work for me: 'rpm-ostree override replace kernel-.rpm --install=kernel-modules-core-*.rpm'. That's on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2023-03-05_Kernel_6.2_Test_Week
Tried to update the kernel on a silverblue system using the instructions for the test week and it failed to update. I've updated the kernel and tested on a
Editing problem in the last 2 paragraphs of my comment immediately above. That was about the instructions for installing the kernel update on SilverBlue, I don't see why the instructions wouldn't work - so my guess is there was something else going on and the instructions are fine.
Default & perf tests passed on esxi 6.7

Thanks for updating to latest; do we need to update headers? If not it would probably make sense to push to stable and submit new version and keep version aligned. Unless there was an issue with 6.2.6?

FWIW the change enabling
-funsigned-charon 6.2 by default (3bc753c06dd0 ("kbuild: treat char as always unsigned")) already broke at least 2 kernel drivers, with possibly more expected to come:https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/e20db4c4-b2a8-bc88-232f-d1213733d20c@leemhuis.info/ https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/d2d0baef-c15b-3abf-338c-77de403c262c@qtmlabs.xyz/
Considering the wide ranging implications of that kernel change, especially to kernel drivers that was only ever used on x86/x86_64 platforms (where
charis signed by default), I would suggest staying on 6.1 a bit longer until we are sure that the drivers are fixed.Negative karma per above.
./runtests.shPASS with koji's kernel-6.2.7-200.fc37.x86_64 and kernel-headers-6.2.6-200.fc37 builds (without kernel-tools-6.2.6-200.fc37) within a kvm/qemu VM (KDE spin, up to date with all testing repos enabled) on a AMD Ryzen 6000 mobile series host. No third party modules (tainted = 0).I tested the VM some minutes with average activities, works fine so far. No errors/issues when using it.
With 6.2.7 am getting this in dmesg: systemd[1]: bpf-lsm: Failed to load BPF object: No such process. Ryzen 3700x, nvidia from rpmfusion, Rog Strix B550-F. Aside from this no problems. Regression tests passed as well as performance tests. However I do have way more than usual "failed" in perf test which started with 6.2.6. Generally functional.

kernel 6.2.7 seems fine on my laptop.
Works well on Lenovo THinkPad P1 Gen2
I am not an expert! This kernel version does not work with my Realtek WiFi using the provided rtw89_8852be module. I found a similar bug report at SUSE: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1209449 "Realtek knows"
@tilltyr as mentioned in the bug you linked, this is not a kernel issue. It was a linux-firmware issue, and the fix will also happen there. The reason firmware issues can appear to be tied to a kernel version is because those firmware get copied into the initramfs, and do not change when you change the version of linux-firmware installed on the system unless you also regenerate an initramfs. You should be able to revert your firmware packages to an earlier version of linux-firmware, and recreate your initramfs to end up with a working 6.2.7 kernel.
No issues so far on 12700K, 3080 with proprietary drivers, 2.5G LAN and stuff. No WiFi to cause issues though.
@jforbes, thanks for the clarification! Unfortunately, it seems I cannot change my -1 Karma above, therfore I gave a +1 here to even it out!
kernel-6.2.7-200.fc37 seems to work fine on bare-metal HP Z440, AMD RX570 with UEFI. No issues to report so far and kernel regression tests both PASS.
Do we any major regressions preventing this going to stable?

This update has been pushed to stable.
I have been using this kernel for about a week and have had many issues with the AMDGPU driver on my Alienware M17r5. It has an AMD Radeon 680m iGPU, and a Radeon 6850m XT dGPU. I can't get it to happen all the time. Still, in most cases, if I use a multi-monitor setup via a USB-C dock, right-click and run an application using the dGPU and move it from one desktop to the other, or if I have VBOX open for too long, it errors out. When it starts erroring, the desktop is still "useable," but the performance is significantly hindered, and there are artifacts. It doesn't happen with the 6.3 kernels and any of the latest 6.1* stable kernels. This would happen previously with IOMMU enabled, so I tried specifically enabling with a kernel boot param, and again disabled, still the same results:
I can give more details if required, but I am attaching some here:
