I have a staging PPA that I'm using for testing at ppa:dannf/lp1710019. The QEMU there is the attached debdiff (trivially) forward-ported to the latest qemu in updates, and the kernel has the patches I plan to submit to the kernel team. I've verified that this all works together on a zesty system.
I also took a look at LP: #1731051 to see if we should include that fix in this backport as well. I don't think we need to - the reboot command in question doesn't work at all in zesty (w/ or w/o these patches. I assume that was a feature added to QEMU post-2.8. So yeah, from point-of-view this is all good to go. I'll proceed with submitting the kernel-side backport. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1710019 Title: support GICv3 ITS save/restore & migration Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Xenial: Won't Fix Status in qemu source package in Xenial: Won't Fix Status in linux source package in Zesty: In Progress Status in qemu source package in Zesty: In Progress Status in linux source package in Artful: In Progress Status in qemu source package in Artful: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] Virtual machines on GICv3-based ARM systems cannot be saved/restored or migrated.
