This is a possibility, but I was unaware that the bisect works between branches (5.4 and 5.6). And, each recompile from scratch last about 6-7 hours, so I prefer to work on a single kernel version, adding printk somewhere and rebuilding only what is changed. > Also, I would suggest discussing this kernel problem on the Linux > kernel mailing list for PowerPC as the people there are actually > responsible for the code you are trying to debug [1]. Thank you, I will ask for help there now. Bye, Giuseppe
