Is it somehow already possible to switch from kernel 5.15.61 to 5.19? #637

In the past we learnt about a security leak which seems it was fixed in 5.19 (don't know if backported to 5.15.x). And today we found an error with Bluetooth which seems to be fixed with 5.17. So anything newer than 5.17 would be helpful...

That's not a feature of pi-gen, no. But, if you know what you're doing you could provide a custom kernel.

Thanks for your answer! In general I know how to compile a kernel. Do you know where I can get all the switches which were used to compile a kernel, so I can use similar ones to the provided one?

This should give you something very close to the official kernel:
