I asked the customer to test 4.15.0-114-generic on Xenial HWE from -proposed on their HP DL360 Gen10 machines with the Intel Xeon Gold 5120 CPU. The machine has Sub-NUMA Clustering enabled and it is active.
The machine boots successfully, and there are no call traces or kernel oops present: # uname -rv 4.15.0-114-generic #115~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 12 09:20:32 UTC 2020 [Tue Aug 25 16:42:20 2020] x86: Booting SMP configuration: [Tue Aug 25 16:42:20 2020] .... node #0, CPUs: #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 [Tue Aug 25 16:42:20 2020] .... node #1, CPUs: #7 #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 [Tue Aug 25 16:42:20 2020] .... node #0, CPUs: #14 [Tue Aug 25 16:42:20 2020] MDS CPU bug present and SMT on, data leak possible.
