This patch breaks the '-no-reboot' parameter (I think the "dual" mode breaks the -no-reboot parameter) After grub loads the kernel and starts it, the kernel aborts: OF stdout device is: /vdevice/vty@71000000 Preparing to boot Linux version 4.18.0-112.el8.ppc64le (mockbu...@ppc-061.build.eng.bos.redhat.com) (gcc version 8.3.1 20190507 (Red Hat 8.3.1-4) (GCC)) #1 SMP Fri Jul 5 11:21:28 UTC 2019 Detected machine type: 0000000000000101 command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-4.18.0-112.el8.ppc64le root=/dev/mapper/rhel_ibm--p8--kvm--03--guest--02-root ro crashkernel=auto rd.lvm.lv=rhel_ibm-p8-kvm-03-guest-02/root rd.lvm.lv=rhel_ibm-p8-kvm-03-guest-02/swap Max number of cores passed to firmware: 256 (NR_CPUS = 2048) Calling ibm,client-architecture-support...[lvivier@localhost ~]$ I bisected to this patch, and then after I understood the problem is with the -no-reboot parameter as the machine is reset by the CAS negotiation... and the -no-reboot prevents this reset. I don't know if it's a real problem or not. Thanks, Laurent
