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- xenial' to 'verification-done-xenial'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-failed- xenial'.
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.

From the commit message: Paste on POWER9 only works to accelerators and not on real memory. So these tests just generate a SIGILL. Actual test output: test: test_paste_unaligned tags: git_version:unknown !! child died by signal 4 failure: test_paste_unaligned not ok 1..2 selftests: paste_unaligned [FAIL] selftests: paste_last_unaligned ======================================== test: test_paste_last_unaligned tags: git_version:unknown !! child died by signal 4 failure: test_paste_last_unaligned not ok 1..3 selftests: paste_last_unaligned [FAIL] selftests: alignment_handler (On Power8 these two test will be skipped) This patchset will also address the compilation intrduced by b2d35fa (selftests: add headers_install to lib.mk) which landed with Bionic upstream stable patchset 2019-07-12 (bug 1836426) == Fix == * 525661ef (selftests/powerpc: Remove Power9 paste tests) * 7e0cf1c9 (selftests/powerpc: Fix Makefiles for headers_install change) These has been applied in Disco. As Cosmic will reach EOL soon, and we don't have alignment tests in Xenial, we only need this for Bionic. == Test == Patch tested on a P9 node "baltar", test build OK and these two tests were removed as expected. == Regression Potential == Low. Code change limited to testing tools for Power9 and just removing broken tests, fix build error.
