2018-01-19 15:14:44 Joseph Salisbury description I've updated the machine to the linux-hwe kernels, and experienced an almost instant crash when booting. Nothing is shown on the VGA output, so no stack traces are available. I've tried booting a few kernels with the following results: - linux-image-4.8.0-56-generic + linux-image-extra-4.8.0-56-generic: boots up fine - linux-image-4.13.0-26-generic + linux-image-extra-4.13.0-26-generic: fails to boot - linux-image-4.13.0-21-generic: boots up, but since no r8169, no networking - linux-image-4.13.0-21-generic + linux-image-extra-4.13.0-21-generic: fails to boot - linux-image-4.10.0-42-generic + linux-image-extra-4.10.0-42-generic: boots up fine After that I've tried some mainline kernels from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline to check if the problem is the upstream or ubuntu patches: - linux-image-4.14.13-041413-generic_4.14.13-041413.201801101001_amd64.deb: boots up fine - linux-image-4.13.13-041313-generic_4.13.13-041313.201711150531_amd64.deb: fails to boot - linux-image-4.13.16-041316-generic_4.13.16-041316.201711240901_amd64.deb: boots up fine - linux-image-4.13.14-041314-generic_4.13.14-041314.201711180632_amd64.deb: fails to boot - linux-image-4.13.15-041315-generic_4.13.15-041315.201711211030_amd64.deb: boots up fine So, it seems, the problem is fixed either in patches between 4.13.14 and 4.13.15 upstream, or ubuntu configs/patches applied to mainline kernels. == SRU Justification == The following mainline commit introduced a regression in v4.11-rc1: c075b6f2d357ea9 ("staging: sm750fb: Replace POKE32 and PEEK32 by inline functions") This regression caused the bug reporters system to crash and exhibited no display output. A "Reverse" bisect was performed and it was found that this regression is fixed by commit 16808dcf605e6, which was added to mainline in v4.15-rc1. == Fix == commit 16808dcf605e6302319a8c3266789b76d4c0983b Author: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Date: Mon Nov 6 08:43:03 2017 +0800 staging: sm750fb: Fix parameter mistake in poke32 == Regression Potential == Low. This patch fixes a current regression. It was cc'd to upstream stable so had additional upstream review. ## Original Bug Description# I've updated the machine to the linux-hwe kernels, and experienced an almost instant crash when booting.
