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.

[Test Case] sudo modprobe nvidia On failure: [ 812.512205] nvidia: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel. [ 812.512216] nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel. [ 812.512218] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint [ 812.711108] nvidia: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel [ 812.711656] module nvidia: unsupported RELA relocation: 275 [Fix] a257e02579e42 arm64/kernel: don't ban ADRP to work around Cortex-A53 erratum #843419 [Regression Risk] Regressions would most likely impact the loading of modules. To mitigate this risk, I've tested on a couple different arm64 servers - including loading of some the largest available modules - and have not seen any issues. All code changes are restricted to arm64, except for a new macro & #include in the generic linux/sizes.h header.
