The PTS and PTY systems aren't related to AX.25 so they will continue to work. Ax25ipd and all other ax25, netrom, rose, and all other associated libraries, applications, and tools using those protocols will stop working. Failures have already started happening for some use-cases already and that's why people are recommending to revert to old kernels that don't have the breakage. That helps ax25/netrom/rose needs but you loose all other bug fixes, security fixes, new hardware support, etc.

This might reach more relevant people on the Linux-hams list.
David, a question. What happens to things like pseudo tty and ax25ipd if ax25 is removed from the kernel?

Yes... now only if we can find some developers who understand the Linux kernel undo the damage! Any takers?

Just an observation: It is possible to recompile just a kernel module. Get the kernel source, extract the module, patch, compile and load. If it works, replace the default one with it.
Not for the faint hearted, but it is an option.
