Fix: Single follow-up upstream cherry pick which fixes the problem. Regression Potential: The patch has been upstream since 4.8, so it should be well-tested at this point. Thus regressions are unlikely. --- The fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1649718 cherry- picked three commits from upstream 4.6 related to RTC interrupt handling. Unfortunately, the followup commit included in 4.8 was missed. As a result, Windwos Live-Migration in Qemu is broken on certain hardware.

Mainline 4.6 is also affected and triggers the bug just like Ubuntu kernels >= Ubuntu-4.4.0-63.84 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1668594/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
