The bisect looks strange as it's only moving a page boundary, it could be correct but it seems harmeless. There is another commit close by that was causing issues with serial output for the barebox guys and this is a patch I am working on to fix it. https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20240908062756.70514-1-sho...@gmail.com/ I will try to get time today to look at your tarball and run it, but if not have a look at this patch. -Stafford > Rob > > P.S.
