Public bug reported: This is a Ubuntu 16.04.2 feature to track the inclusions of POWER9 patches on top of kernel 4.8.
Ubuntu 16.04.2 is based on kernel 4.8[1], and we want to add support for POWER9 on this kernel. In order to do so, we will need to cherry-pick important patches. What are the commit ids for these patches? Once we have the first batch of commit-ids, we will get this feature mirrored to Canonical. [1] git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-yakkety.git Canonical, this is a place holder at this moment. We will start to put the commits that would be required soon. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Taco Screen team (taco-screen-team) Status: Incomplete ** Tags: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-149921 severity-critical targetmilestone-inin16042 ** Tags added: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-149921 severity-critical targetmilestone-inin16042 ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) => Taco Screen team (taco-screen-team) ** Package changed: ubuntu => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1650263 Title: [16.04.2] POWER9 patches on top of 4.8 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1650263/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
