Arndt <[email protected]> - 2018-05-23 13:40:33 == 12 kernel patches have been identified as needed to support Nvidia Volta on bare metal. All are accepted upstream in 4.17. Three of those are already in bionic, leaving a total of 9 remaining commits needed in bionic. Those 9 commits are: 720c84046c26 powerpc/npu-dma.c: Fix crash after __mmu_notifier_register failure 2b74e2a9b39d powerpc/powernv/npu: Fix deadlock in mmio_invalidate() 5ee573e8ef03 powerpc/powernv/mce: Don't silently restart the machine fb5924fddf9e powerpc/mm: Flush cache on memory hot(un)plug 7fd6641de28f powerpc/powernv/memtrace: Let the arch hotunplug code flush cache 28a5933e8d36 powerpc/powernv/npu: Add lock to prevent race in concurrent context init/destroy a1409adac748 powerpc/powernv/npu: Prevent overwriting of pnv_npu2_init_contex() callback parameters d0cf9b561ca9 powerpc/powernv/npu: Do a PID GPU TLB flush when invalidating a large address range 75ecfb49516c powerpc/mce: Fix a bug where mce loops on memory UE. We cherry-picked the commits, and all applied cleanly. The resultant kernel built successfully and loaded. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772991 Title: [Ubuntu 18.04.1] POWER9 - Nvidia Volta - Kernel changes to enable Nvidia driver on bare metal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-systems/+bug/1772991/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
