Hi, As you suggested, we have upgraded the kernel as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds and OS boots to the updated kernel properly on our cavium server Due to some issues with aarch64 kernel packages, the ‘build’ directory is missing under /lib/modules/<kver>/ after the update hence unable to build our smartpqi driver to retest this.
Please suggest how to upgrade to latest upstream kernel on aarch64 so that we can build our smartpqi storage driver. We have downloaded the following packages from http://kernel.ubuntu.com /~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.18-rc5 and installed. linux-headers-4.18.0-041800rc5_4.18.0-041800rc5.201807152130_all.deb linux-headers-4.18.0-041800rc5-generic_4.18.0-041800rc5.201807152130_arm64.deb linux-image-4.18.0-041800rc5-generic_4.18.0-041800rc5.201807152130_arm64.deb linux-modules-4.18.0-041800rc5-generic_4.18.0-041800rc5.201807152130_arm64.deb Regards/Ram -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1781578 Title: Call trace observed while disabling PD on Ubuntu 16.04.4 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I am working on smartpqi linux driver for Microsemi. We have a storage controller managment application tool to manage storage behind our controller. One of the application option what we have is to disable physical device(PD). During disable PD opertaion, Disable PD command got timedout. Then I observed below mentioned call trace in dmesg log. Please note we are running IO stress test on the PD which is being disabled. Please let me know if there are any known issues specific to Ubuntu kernel with respect to this. If its a known issue specific to Ubuntu 16.04.4 distro, does this issue already addressed in latest Ubuntu OS distro ? Thanks in advance!
