Since the fix is already included in the disco kernel I'm changing the root
'linux (Ubuntu)' entry (that is usually used to track the current development
release kernel) to Fix Released.
And because the bionic entry is Fix Committed I adjust the project entry and
change it to Fix Committed, too.
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released
** Changed in: ubuntu-power-systems
Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

guest boot with > 256G of memory (kernel/kvm)
Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project:
Fix Committed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
== SRU Justification ==
Rebooting a PowerPC VM with > 256G of memory results in a guest crash.
== Fix ==
Backport commit 46dec40fb741 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Don't truncate
HPTE index in xlate function").
== Regression Potential ==
Low. Fix is trivial.
== Test Case ==
Create a PowerPC VM with > 256G of memory and reboot it repeatedly.
