Ok. so in xenial, on top of upstream release we cherrypick a few lscpu "fixes" for various arches, including powerpc from, what at the time was development. Clearly we didn't cherrypick enough of things, hence the lscpu regression. By 2.31 as used in bionic, things are all fine again.
So there must be patches in upstream util-linux between 2.27 and 2.31 which we do not have, but need to fix this. ** Changed in: util-linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: Canonical Foundations Team (canonical-foundations) => Manoj Iyer (manjo) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to util-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1764628 Title: incorrect hypervisor and virtualization type reported in compat mode guest Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project: Triaged Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: ---uname output--- Linux guest 4.15.0-13-generic #14~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Sat Mar 17 03:03:53 UTC 2018 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux Machine Type = boston-LC ---Debugger--- A debugger is not configured ---Steps to Reproduce--- Incorrect hypervisor and virtualization type reported in ubuntu 16.04.04 guest running in P8compat mode on P9 boston-LC: root@guest:/tmp# lscpu Architecture: ppc64le Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 2 On-line CPU(s) list: 0,1 Thread(s) per core: 2 Core(s) per socket: 1 Socket(s): 1 NUMA node(s): 1 Model: 2.2 (pvr 004e 1202) Model name: POWER8 (architected), altivec supported >> Hypervisor vendor: horizontal >> Virtualization type: full L1d cache: 32K L1i cache: 32K NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0,1 Stack trace output: no Oops output: no We test what is coming along with distro.
