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- bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed- bionic'.
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. Thank you! ** Tags added: verification-needed-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1813129 Title: tm-unavailable in powerpc/tm failed on Bionic Power9 Status in ubuntu-kernel-tests: In Progress Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Bug description: == Justification == The tm-unavailable test in powerpc from ubuntu_kernel_selftests will fail on Bionic PowerPC: $ sudo ./tm-unavailable Checking if FP/VEC registers are sane after a FP unavailable exception... Illegal instruction This is because the Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM) is not supported on the revision of the processor in our PowerPC boxes. == Fix == b395e55b (selftests/powerpc: Skip tm-unavailable if TM is not enabled) With a prerequisite to make it a clean cherry-pick: 5783ee6e (selftests/powerpc: Check for pthread errors in tm-unavailable) An extra check for this test: SKIP_IF(!have_htm()) Will be added to ensure we have HTM support before start testing. This patchset has already landed in Cosmic and newer, and can be cherry-picked for Bionic. For Xenial, we don't have this test in our tree. == Test == Patch verified on a Bionic P9 system, the test will be marked as passed (skipped) with these two patches applied. == Regression potential == None. This patch is just for the kernel testing tool. == Original Bug Report == $ sudo ./tm-unavailable Checking if FP/VEC registers are sane after a FP unavailable exception... Illegal instruction For Power8 it's OK: For P9 on Cosmic, this test will be skipped: selftests: tm: tm-unavailable ======================================== test: tm_unavailable_test tags: git_version:unknown skip: tm_unavailable_test ok 1..10 selftests: tm: tm-unavailable [PASS] ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: linux-image-4.15.0-44-generic 4.15.0-44.47 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-44.47-generic 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-44-generic ppc64le AlsaDevices: total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 1 Jan 24 07:22 seq crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Jan 24 07:22 timer AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'aplay': 'aplay' ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.5 Architecture: ppc64el ArecordDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'arecord': 'arecord' AudioDevicesInUse: Error: command ['fuser', '-v', '/dev/snd/seq', '/dev/snd/timer'] failed with exit code 1: Date: Thu Jan 24 08:46:56 2019 IwConfig: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'iwconfig': 'iwconfig' Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0451:80ff Texas Instruments, Inc.
