1.7 seems to break running Xorg for me (running latest MATE). I can’t
move the mouse, opening htop via ssh hangs at a black screen, and then
subsequent ssh attempts can’t connect, so I have to perform a hard
reboot. If I don’t send *any* mouse events, htop loads, but locks up
as soon as I move the mouse. MATE’s clock does continue to update every
second, so some things still work. Booting 1.6+git20160502 instead works
fine.
Looking at the changes[1], some variables types have been changed (many
int -> unsigned, and a few int -> dev_t in xen/console.{c,h}), but I
doubt that’s it. My guess is that it’s one of:
* b4d07d3 Fix pageout deadlock
* 1db202e vm_map: back allocations with a red-black tree
I shall try building a kernel with 1db202e reverted.
