[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1814982] Re: efi/arm/arm64: Allow SetVirtualAddressMap() to be omitted

2019-03-19 Thread mahmoh
Note: if the point release installers will pick up the 4.18 series
kernel with the fix then I think a fix for cosmic will suffice vs.
bionic also given the results.

  [Impact]
  The Ubuntu kernel is not currently bootable on various arm64 laptops (HP Envy 
x2, Asus NovaGo, Lenovo Miix 630, Lenovo Yoga C630, Samsung ...) because of EFI 
memory permissions/restrictions. The reason is explained in the commit supplied 
below. 

  [Test Case]
  Install and boot Ubuntu on one of the above arm64 laptops.

  [Regression Risk]
  This commit adds support for an optional kernel command line parameter so 
there is minimal to no risk.

2019-03-19 Thread mahmoh
bionic linux-image-4.15.0-47-generic:

- Tested with and without efi=novamap and didn't get past the EFI stub
messages.

cosmic linux-image-4.18.0-17-generic:

- Tested with efi=novamap and the kernel booted and got quite far but
then went blank, as expected but this is a good start; without
efi=novamap it didn't get past the EFI stub messages.

disco  linux-image-5.0.0-8.9-generic:

- Tested this one for fun, oddly this kernel did worse than 4.18 and
didn't get past the kernel stubs either!

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1814982] Re: efi/arm/arm64: Allow SetVirtualAddressMap() to be omitted

2019-02-19 Thread mahmoh
Snapdragon 835 Laptop Results:

4.15 boots to the first 4 lines before kernel
4.18 boots most of the kernel, stops for a bit, then suffers with an rshed crash
5.0 boots to the end of the kernel log, then the screen goes blank

Without this patch on the 835 laptops the user sees grub and then
nothing and is left sad; however, with this patch the user sees some
form of kernel life on the laptops and is left hopeful - which leads
them to start looking around for fixes and help with the solution.

Additional patches will need to be backported but without this patch
it's a non-starter until 5.1 or after.

If there is little to no regression risk as this adds a kernel parameter
and this is required to enable these platforms to boot, if not other
platforms, I would argue to include the patch for at least Disco if not
Bionic since random people will attempt to boot the LTS release. Thank
you for building the test kernel.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1670137] Re: zfs l2arc cache inhibits proper suspend

I can confirm that the problem does not happen when cache is on SATA vs.
NVME.  I assume this needs to get pushed to the kernel then?  Please
advise.

  Running zfs [root] with l2arc cache enabled fails to suspend properly,
  screen goes blank but power stays on, when I disable the cache it
  works fine.  Unsure if this happens with non-root install of zfs, slog
  does not cause this problem.
