I could reproduce the issue with 6.9.2 too, will try mainline tomorrow. FTR the procedure is quite simple. To build a sid qemu testbed: autopkgtest-build-qemu unstable /tmp/sid.img Run the autopkgtest: autopkgtest -ddd -B dpdk -- autopkgtest-virt-qemu --debug --show-boot /tmp/sid.img After a while the test hangs with: autopkgtest-virt-qemu: DBG: executing copydown /tmp/alog/tests-tree/ /tmp/autopkgtest.uG6tsJ/build.6QA/src/ [...] autopkgtest-virt-qemu: DBG: +>? Then one can build a new kernel with: make oldconfig scripts/config --disable DEBUG_INFO scripts/config --disable DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT make -j`nproc` bindeb-pkg Boot the QCOW image: qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu host -machine accel=kvm -drive file=sid.img,format=qcow2 -m 4G -smp `nproc` Upgrade the kernel, and run the autopkgtest again as above.
