This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed- bionic'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

The Linux kernel needs support for this interface to use attached devices, such as a UART and the IPMI system interface. [Test Case] Boot up a HiSilicon D05 system, confirm that the following command returns w/o error: $ sudo ipmitool lan print [Regression Risk] The proposed patchset only enables LIBIO for arm64, so the greatest regression risk is to other arm64 systems. We have mitigated that by testing on a wide range of hardware (all certified arm64 servers + some in-devel systems). There remains some arch-independent changes to the generic PCI code. The patch "PCI: Restore codepath for !CONFIG_LIBIO" was added to mitigate the risk to other architectures by restoring the previous code for those architectures.
