Build results: total: 155 pass: 155 fail: 0 Qemu test results: total: 460 pass: 459 fail: 1 Failed tests: sh:rts7751r2dplus_defconfig:ata:net,virtio-net:rootfs
udhcpc fails to get an IP address over virtio-net. I reported the same problem against mainline. This is a spurious problem; the test succeeds in roughly every other test. It is unknown at this time if the problem is the patch introducing the problem (commit 0f6925b3e8da ("virtio_net: Do not pull payload in skb->head")), the sh4 kernel code, qemu, or the sh4 compiler (though I tried several compiler versions).
I see that this patch is now in pretty much all kernels, so I may report this on and off until the underlying problem has been found and fixed. Until then, I guess we'll have to live with it.
