This bug is awaiting verification that the linux- aws-6.11/6.11.0-1013.14~24.04.1 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-noble-linux- aws-6.11' to 'verification-done-noble-linux-aws-6.11'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-aws-6.11' to 'verification-failed-noble-linux-aws-6.11'.
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.

We use this with Patroni to ensure that a VM will reboot rather than accidentally have a writeable database when it shouldn't. Linux supports the virtual watchdog timer through the "wdat_wdt" module. In Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on amd64, this module is in the "linux- modules-extra-*-generic" series of packages. These are depended on by the "linux-image-generic" package, but not by the "linux-image- virtual" package. The latter is what is included in Ubuntu Official Cloud Images, including the OVA version for vSphere. I think that installing "linux-image-virtual" on amd64 should get you the "wdat_wdt" module because it's necessary to fully support a common hypervisor. This would probably entail moving it from linux-modules- extra-*-generic to linux-modules-*-generic.
