Public bug reported: [Impact] Using the SBSA watchdog will crash the OS on ThunderX2 systems. This is not an issue in current firmware because the SBSA watchdog is not exposed - but it is likely to be introduced in a future update.
[Test Case] $ sudo bash # cat < /dev/watchdog [Regression Risk] The fix is restricted the sbsa_gwdt driver, which is only currently available on some arm64 servers. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Artful) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Artful) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1755595 Title: sbsa watchdog crashes thunderx2 system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1755595/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
