== Comment: #0 - Guilherme Guaglianoni Piccoli - 2016-06-29 18:09:04 ==
When performing hotplug device addition to LPAR/guest with Ubuntu 16.04
(kernel 4.4.0-28) we can observe a kernel oops if device makes use of 64-bit
DDW DMA. The following stack trace was observed with QLogic NIC (bnx2x driver):

This issue is solved upstream, by the following 3 patches (SHA-1 from Linus
tree):
c2078d9ef60 ("Revert \"powerpc/eeh: Fix crash in eeh_add_device_early() on
Cell\"")
8445a87f709 ("powerpc/iommu: Remove the dependency on EEH struct in DDW
mechanism")
8a934efe943 ("powerpc/pseries: Fix PCI config address for DDW")
So, we want to request the addition of these fixes in Ubuntu Xenial kernel.
Besides, an old and obsolete non-upstream patch related to this issue can be
removed (SHA-1 from Ubuntu xenial tree):
623aabd5d68 ("UBUNTU: SAUCE: powerpc/eeh: Validate arch in
eeh_add_device_early()")
Thanks,
Guilherme
