question:

What will happen to buster when kernel 4.19 goes out of life in
Dec2020?

See EOL for 4.19.
https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html


If buster debian 10 has to change the kernel to 5 in Dec 2020, it will
be untested. And it would be preferable to have kernel 5 before buster
is realeased during the testing phase.

Or will you do your own patchsets on an out of life 4.19 kernel?

Thierry
