I didn't get a chance to prove the original bug in LAVA, so now I've got that result too: Original bug: https://staging.validation.linaro.org/scheduler/job/249115 Fails to boot, as others have reported. Fixed kernel build: https://staging.validation.linaro.org/scheduler/job/249113 Kernel boots correctly and job runs to completion. To test, I downloaded the built .deb files and extracted the contents and made a modules.tar.gz from ./lib/. The jobs above include SHA256 checksums for the extracted files and the modules.tar.gz and I uploaded the files to: http://people.linaro.org/~neil.williams/linux-bug-922478/ (fixed build) and http://people.linaro.org/~neil.williams/linux-bug-922478/original/ (buggy build) > So I've just tried this linux-image-4.9.0-8-armmp_4.9.144-4 on my > OLinuXino-LIME2, it boots ok, everything seems to work well. > > Thanks ! > > Jean -- Neil Williams h...@codehelp.co.uk pgp2aFNXAN830.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Hi all, Same issue here with 4.9.144-3 on my Olimex OLinuXino-LIME2 board (Allwinner A20 cpu) : u-boot is struck at "Starting kernel", nothing happens after that. This board boots ok with 4.9.130-2 and also with 4.9.135-1 (found at snapshot.debian.org). I'm using the armmp kernel variant (non-lpae), if that helps I could easily try with lpae. More generally please let me know if I can help pinpointing the issue by testing some more kernel images. Note that I've never played with (cross-)compiling armhf kernels myself, though. Despite this specific issue, thanks for all this great work, it's so cool to have Debian supported out-of-the box on such little boards ! Jean

I also did a local build commenting out "debian/arm-avoid-abi-change-in-4.9.139.patch" in debian/patches and removing "debian/abi/4.9.0-8/armhf_none_armmp" so that the abi conflicts didn't fail to build... $ uname -a Linux cbxi4b 4.9.0-8-armmp #1 SMP Debian 4.9.144-4~20190217~1 (2019-02-17) armv7l GNU/Linux Sounds like there may be a less intrusive patch in the works... live well, vagrant
