Hi Michel! Long story short, it's: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1784961 I took out the workaround we had in the templates to set the machine to pseries-4.0 because I thought we didn't need it any more, but I've just figured out that's what's causing the problems. We're hitting the behaviour described in that bug, where the kernel checks something to do with xive, then triggers a reboot. That breaks all tests where we want to pass in kernel params, because when the reboot happens, our params get lost (our test code doesn't know to enter them again, as it's not something we envisaged when writing the tests). Kevin was trying to do a backport of the qemu fix, if he's succeeded with that I'll try it out, otherwise I'll put the pseries-4.0 workaround back in. Sorry for the inconvenience! BTW, did you notice I enabled update tests for ppc64le on staging? :) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ qa-devel mailing list -- qa-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to qa-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/qa-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
