Hi Po-Hsu, what do you mean by "introduced by the old qemu version"? I assume you are testing new kernels by the kernel-da-key tag? So do you mean "the new (maybe HWE) kernel fails this test on xenial" - and your assumption is that it triggers there because qemu doesn't have the right fixes to be able to handle it? If so we should mirror this bug to IBM so they can assist in picking the right ppc patches needed.
