&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; -------<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;  3 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-)<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; FWIW since the update before this one, we&#39;ve seen a lot of<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; instability<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; in ppc:<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>

&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; builds/881/steps/Running%<wbr>20Sanity%20Tests/logs/stdio<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; basically the network seems very flaky. Doesn&#39;t happen every<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; time<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; but<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; we are seeing a rising number of these kinds of &#39;random&#39;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; failures.<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Are<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; there any ppc changes or fixes which look like they&#39;re<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; responsible,<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; I&#39;m<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; pretty sure its something 4.1 kernel related...<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; The update also triggered a new &#39;error&#39; for amd_nb in the error<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; log<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; parsing which I just whitelisted, probably from some change in<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; the<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; configuration options enabled.<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; I have a 4.1.30 update queued locally, and I&#39;ll double check to<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; see<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; what may have changed in the configuration that could explain any<br>
&gt; &gt; &gt; new warnings or instability.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Just to be clear, the amb_nd change was on qemux86* on 4.1<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>

&gt; &gt; sb/builds/911/steps/Running%<wbr>20Sanity%20Tests/logs/stdio<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; fixed with:<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; <a href="http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=26b0657b2f7875" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://git.yoctoproject.org/<wbr>cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=<wbr>26b0657b2f7875</a><br>
&gt; &gt; 1e60df6e695d5bc0dd703a5bc2<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I had a look at this, and I don&#39;t have a root cause for why this is<br>
&gt; just popping up now. I&#39;m trying to track down an older build, so I<br>
&gt; can<br>
&gt; compare the .configs.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; The kernel code, and Kconfig files themselves haven&#39;t changed in some<br>
&gt; time, and the symbol in question AMD_NB is default &#39;y&#39; if the<br>
&gt; dependencies are met. We include cfg/amd.scc in all of the qemux86*<br>
&gt; builds, so it gets enabled (as it should have before).<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I could force that option off, but the whitelist is an appropriate<br>
&gt; fix,<br>
&gt; since this is an interaction between qemu and the kernel, whereas the<br>
&gt; files that include amd.scc are targeted at a range of platforms.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; The ppc issue is a separate one.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I&#39;ve been blasting away on my 4.1.30 qemuppc build, and I&#39;m not<br>
&gt; seeing<br>
&gt; anything yet, but I will keep trying.<br>
<br>
</div></div>Its still going on even with the recent updates:<br>
