Hi Bruce,
Do you still remember this issue about vDSO of mips boot failure.The
linux-yocto-dev
still have this problem, even though the mips kernel have some fixes
after that.
Any new progress in it？
Regards，
Yanfei

FYI: I managed to get it booting today. I have a hack/temp patch that
I'm cleaning up now.

Hi Bruce,
I saw your "temp: mips: undo vdso reverts". Any trick in it solving the boot
failure before the revert? Though I haven't finished the validation. Thanks.
I had to step away from it for a couple of weeks, but am back
debugging the problem now.
I still don't have a solution to booting with those reverts undone.
I emailed the mips kernel mailing list, since I can see this with a
pure mainline kernel, and linux-yocto-dev. But no one was able to
reproduce the problem there, and the idea was that this was
configuration related.
I haven't isolated any config option that is causing this (but yes,
there are those VDSO changes in 5.4+) .. I still say that if a new
option was created, and it has a default that breaks the boot ..
that's a bug .. but I haven't proven that yet.
I'll email again at the end of my day with an update on my progress.
The upstream mips developers suggested that GENERIC_COMPAT_VDSO needs
to be set, but isn't in our .config .. since that isn't an option that
can be specified in a fragment, I forced it on in my local builds.
The result is the same, an immediate segfault on hand over to userspace.
I'm currently hacking gettimeofday() to isolate the issue and will do
more on Friday.
