Title:
kernel 3.13.0-46.75 and 3.16.0-31.41 fails to boot on arm64
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in linux source package in Trusty:
Fix Released
Bug description:
The failure is:
BUG: failure at
/build/buildd/linux-3.13.0/arch/arm64/include/asm/arch_timer.h:143/arch_counter_get_cntpct()!
which comes from this code:
static inline u64 arch_counter_get_cntpct(void)
{
/*
* AArch64 kernel and user space mandate the use of CNTVCT.
*/
BUG();
return 0;
}
The -46 kernel includes commit 800a366 (corresponding to upstream
commit 0b46b8a) clocksource: arch_timer: Fix code to use physical
timers when requested. This was added to fix clock problems on certain
ARMv7 systems. Unfortunately, it also appears to break ARMv8 systems.
The upstream commit which fixes the ARMv8 breakage from commit 0b46b8a
is d6ad369 clocksource: arch_timer: Only use the virtual counter
(CNTVCT) on arm64. This commit appears not to have been backported to
Trusty.
Here is a full boot log of the failure:
