I implemented this in uvtool for Bionic, which is why it work. It is clearly a feature - I don't think it is SRUable.
If you think it is, pull the changes out of the repo and ask to push it to xenial and artful, but you'd need to convince rbasak twice that it is SRUable (once for uvtool and once for SRU). Or just use uvtool from the master ppa [1] and it will work.4 [1]: https://launchpad.net/~uvtool-dev/+archive/ubuntu/master -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-azure in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1765668 Title: Unable to boot Xenial cloud image on Bionic ARM64 ThunderX / Azure Status in linux-azure package in Ubuntu: New Status in uvtool package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in linux-azure source package in Bionic: New Status in uvtool source package in Bionic: Incomplete Bug description: Similar to bug 1744754, I can create an Artful KVM on this ThunderX ARM64 node with Bionic installed.
