Both your reports are stable-rc 6.3.4-rc2; can I assume that stable 6.3.3 is good?
It was not good. starting from 6.3.1-c1 these issues were there on both i386 and x86_64.
I need to check back on other branches and compare it with Linux mainline and Linux next master branches.
Either way, could you please:
- try linus/master
- bisect stable-rc
I don't immediately see a patch in that tree that would cause either of these things.
Thanks for asking these questions. I should have included this information in my earlier email. I have been noticing this from day one on stable-rc 6.3.1-rc1.
As per your suggestions, I will try to reproduce on other trees and branches and get back to you.+
FYI, These are running in AWS cloud as qemu-i386 and qemu-x86_64.
A few old links showing the history of the problem. https://qa-reports.linaro.org/lkft/linux-stable-rc-linux-6.3.y/build/v6.3.3-...
