Correction: the hang reproduced by the previous shell script is actually being fixed separately. These commits fix various other problems with NVMe drives and are required as a prerequisite .

Ubuntu Developer http://www.debian.org/ slanga...@ubuntu.com vor...@debian.org Leann, While the problem is in ppc64-cpu command, it appears the fix is in a set of kernel patches. Can you have the kernel team take a look at these. Thanks.
