A 5.10 kernel came with Bullseye, Debian 11. Are you getting this from backports? In general, Linus is pretty flexible about what kernels are being used. The difference will be that the 5 series presumably has fixed some old bugs, introduced some new bugs, and some things will be faster or slower. Overall, more hardware is supported, but if everything was working well with 4.19, then there's no immediate reason to suspect it won't work with 5.10. For more details, you're going to have to ask a more specific question. -dsr-

Debian 10 Buster is not released with Linux Kernel 5.10 ; That means We cant upgrade Kernel 5.10 with Debian 10? - Please confirm. As Dan says, it's in backports. I've been running a rpi buster with backports kernel for ages with no issues. > 2. > 3. In order to upgrade Linux Kernel to 5.10 means we have to install Debian 11 BullsEye. Please Confirm. Of course not. It's certainly one option but by no means the only one. The kernel is probably one of the easiest parts to replace with different versions as most of userspace doesn't much care. > 4. > 5. What will be the impact for upgrading Debian 10 with Kernel 4.19 to Debian 11 with Kernel 5.10. This is impossible to answer. I've had two headaches on the systems I've upgraded so far : bracketed paste in bash (how to revert to old behaviour posted to this very list) and amd64 xen hypervisor not powering off on shutdown (most recent version now has this fixed)
