Title: raring: kernel hangs on powerpc boot Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Hi, On some powerpc platforms the kernel from daily builds of raring (tested 20130318) hangs on boot. Patches queued for linux- stable-3.8.4 (not released yet) fix the boot hang. I tried booting the daily build initrd with a kernel build using the mentioned patches and the system booted, so it seems missing patches are the problem. The relevant patches listed as patch name, linux upstream commit, linux-stable (3.8.x) commit: powerpc/kexec: Disable hard IRQ before kexec, 8520e443aa56cc157b015205ea53e7b9fc831291, ba16f36f25b9c2fd8b51477256f9a5698de2581b powerpc: Apply early paca fixups to boot_paca and the boot cpus paca, 25e138149c19fa0680147b825be475f5fd57f155, 849149f2dfcf52e682e3e04cf3fe80bb0ce0e61c powerpc: Make VSID_BITS* dependency explici, e39d1a471484662620651cd9520250d33843f235, queued for 3.8.4 powerpc: Update kernel VSID range, c60ac5693c47df32a2b4b18af97fca5635def015, queued for 3.8.4 I put these patches based against the vanilla linux-3.8.0 kernel in the for-raring branch of my ps3 git repo here: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/geoff/ps3-linux.git/log/?h =for-raring -Geoff To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1157450/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
