This evaluation of the Linux 5.5.56 kernel is the first time it was built. We can see it is part of 2 other evaluations. We want to see which nixpkgs-unstable evaluations contained this build, so we click on the "2 others".

Here we have the git commit hashes for nixpkgs that were used to build the 3 nixpkgs-unstable evals that contained the kernel we want.

We do not want just any eval that had this kernel build in it. It could have been a failed build. So we want to ensure that the build ran through the "tested" job that is part of the trunk-combined jobset. The tested ~~jobset~~ runs ~~all~~ the various tests that must pass for the NixOS channels to progress.
