ghash-clmulni-intel module fails to load

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. From a terminal window please run:

apport-collect 1633058

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

Can you test the following two kernels? If 4.7 is good and 4.8-rc1 is bad, we can bisect between those two:

4.7 final: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.7/
4.8-rc1: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.8-rc1/

If both those kernels are good, we can test later 4.8 release candidates. If they are both bad, we can test some of the 4.7 release candidates.

Please ignore comment #2. Posted in the wrong bug report.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for linux-lts-trusty has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.
