Public bug reported:
Trusty linux (3.13) fails to boot on some NVMe-based cloud instance
types.
[Impact]
* Ubuntu trusty images can't be used on some NVMe-based cloud instance
types.
* Mainline commit a522905 "NVMe: Always use MSI/MSI-x interrupts" fixes
the issue; application of this to 3.13 requires a set of prerequisite
patches, and a minor backport.
a522905 NVMe: Always use MSI/MSI-x interrupts
e32efbf NVMe: make setup work for devices that don't do INTx
be577fa nvme: Use pci_enable_msi_range() and pci_enable_msix_range()
42f6142 NVMe: per-cpu io queues
4f5099a NVMe: IOCTL path RCU protect queue access
5a92e70 NVMe: RCU protected access to io queues
[Test Case]
* Verify that a trusty-based image can boot on the affected instance
type.
[Regression Potential]
* This change set affects all users of the NVMe driver, so regression
potential is moderate to high. Additional soak testing may be warranted
before merging this patch set.
* The patched NVMe driver has been exercised by Dan Streetman, and
given the thumbs-up.
