Description

Hello Xiaomi Open Source Team,

I would like to request the release of the Linux kernel source code for the Redmi Note 14 4G (codename: tanzanite).

This device has already received system updates including a kernel upgrade (from Linux 5.10 to 6.12), but the corresponding kernel source code has not been published on the Xiaomi Kernel OpenSource repository.

It is worth noting that other devices in the same series have already received their kernel source, including:

  • Redmi Note 14 Pro
  • Redmi Note 14S
  • Redmi Note 14 5G

Additionally, Redmi Note 14S shares a similar platform, which suggests that the base kernel source is already available.

Since the Linux kernel is licensed under GPLv2, the corresponding source code should be made publicly available.

Could you please clarify the status of the kernel source for this device and provide an estimated timeline for its release?
