How to find a specific kernel version in the Github repository?
I'm trying to get the Linux 4.14.85 kernel, for a problem I've posted before, related to Xenomai.
I see here that there is a branch for 4.14.y, but there are no tags to find which commit corresponds to the 4.14.85 version. Basically, I'm following the instructions provided here but I want to use the most up-to-date versions.
How can I find the appropriate commit to revert to it? Where should I look for it?
I will appreciate any tips or help you can provide.

The only way I managed to find the commit was by manually scrolling through branch rpi-4.14.y
's commits until I got the correct one. The Makefile
indicates the commit's version, patch level, and sublevel. With that information, I found it in this page and here is the commit for 4.14.85.
git log -S 'SUBLEVEL = 85' rpi-4.19.y
should also show you a list of commits with that patch number

Go to https://GitHub.com/hexxeh/rpi-firmware and look at the commits.
The last commit @ 4.14.85 is eefe4b161f5e9730183c8dc1605e14c85b15cf51
So that gives you a commit id to use with the rpi-update script.
Run PRUNE_MODULES=1 rpi-update eefe4b161f5e9730183c8dc1605e14c85b15cf51 && reboot
and you'll be back on the kernel from Dec 5, 2018.
I won't ask why the stable 4.14.98 kernel you'd get with apt update; apt install raspberrypi-kernel
isn't working for you because I guess you have a sound reason for reverting to something historic.

Go to https://GitHub.com/hexxeh/rpi-firmware and look at the commits.
The last commit @ 4.14.85 is eefe4b161f5e9730183c8dc1605e14c85b15cf51
So that gives you a commit id to use with the rpi-update script.
Run PRUNE_MODULES=1 rpi-update eefe4b161f5e9730183c8dc1605e14c85b15cf51 && reboot
and you'll be back on the kernel from Dec 5, 2018.
I won't ask why the stable 4.14.98 kernel you'd get with apt update; apt install raspberrypi-kernel
isn't working for you because I guess you have a sound reason for reverting to something historic.
