This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- artful' to 'verification-done-artful'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-artful' to 'verification-failed- artful'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

The downside is that they don't go through normal Linux crash paths, so they don't give much information to the Linux console. IBM is requesting to have the commit b746e3e01e70d23ef53dcde1203ab78a1b7ac514 in the Zesty kernel. Commit b746e3e01e70d2 is in mainline as of 4.14-rc1. Breno Leitao from IBM did a backport of this commit. == Fix == commit b746e3e01e70d23ef53dcde1203ab78a1b7ac514 Author: Nicholas Piggin <npig...@gmail.com> Date: Wed Jul 19 16:59:10 2017 +1000 powerpc/powernv: Flush console before platform error reboot == Regression Potential == This patch is specific to powerpc, and it has been backported, reviewed and tested by IBM. == Test Case == A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter. The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
