Hi

since one week or so my build sometimes freezes with

linux-raspberrypi-3.18.11+gitd64fa8121fca9883d6fb14ca06d2abf66496195e-r0
do_patch (pid 7335)

without any progress noticeable.

In log.do_patch I see strange stuff:

DEBUG: Executing shell function do_patch
[INFO] validating against known patches  (raspberrypi2-standard-meta)
   
[####################################################################################################]
(|)(200 %)

Anybody out there with ideas what's going on?

OK a successful log says

DEBUG: Executing shell function do_patch
[INFO] validating against known patches  (raspberrypi2-standard-meta)
   
[####################################################################################################]
(|)(200 %)   [##################################################]
(completed in 6326 seconds)
DEBUG: Shell function do_patch finished

What takes 108 minutes??

Wow. That is REALLY long. In existing releases the tools are looking
for place to resume a previously applied set of matches. Depending
on the history of a branch, it means quite a few commits are
checked.

I'm betting this is falling into some sort of pathological case where
hundreds of commits are being checked.

As it turns out, I completed a set of changes just today that eliminate
that checking and make the patch phase take almost no time.

If someone is willing to test an in-progress patch, I can send it out
tomorrow and see if the change resolves this issue.
