No help I'm afraid, but at least I can conclusively say that 3.16 is
good, and 3.17 is bad.

Can you try more specifically around the first KVM pull request?  That
would be between c9b88e958182 (presumed good) and 8533ce727188 (presumed
bad)?



G'day Paolo,

I can and will. Right now I'm toward the end of the bisect run I detailed in my previous e-mail, however disturbingly git bisect visualize shows no kvm commits at all. I'm beginning to think that something non-deterministic is just making this easier or harder to hit. Bad kernels usually go bad in a day at most, good kernels I've been leaving for up to 5 days.

Here's where the log is at right now. visualize shows 68 commits and I can't see any of them being even remotely related to kvm.

If someone could give me some hard tests to do along the lines of what Saso is up to I could probably get that done faster. With the right bad kernel I can reproduce this lockup in a matter of hours.

Regards,
Brad
