I'm not aware of any armhf hardware that has PCI and was supported by the 4.4 kernel. Calxeda gear maybe - but that was never officially released and I don't have access to it anyway. I did regression test using the virt model in QEMU. System still boots, lspci smoke tests OK: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$

I've backported the necessary fixes and verified that the result does solve the problem: https://git.launchpad.net/~dannf/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/linux?h=xenial-arm64-acpi-pci That being said, the changes are not particularly isolated, so it will require careful review and testing for

There was no v4.6-yakkety build for arm64, but v4.8 booted fine. I further bisected this down to: 0cb0786bac159 ARM64: PCI: Support ACPI-based PCI host controller Presumably nova in newer OpenStack releases has made changes to the libvirt xml it generates that requires additional kernel support.

I'd like to perform a "Reverse" bisect to figure out what commit fixes this bug. We need to identify the last kernel version that had the bug, and the first kernel version that fixed the bug. Can you test the following kernels and report back: v4.6 Final:

Would it be possible for you to test out some test kernels? That would allow us to reverse bisect and identify any missing commits from the 4.4 kernel. ** Tags added: performing-bisect -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to
