Hello Po-Hsu, or anyone else affected, Accepted qemu into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/1:2.5+dfsg- 5ubuntu10.25 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance! ** Changed in: qemu (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723914 Title: ubuntu-kvm-unit test failed with emulator test on ppc64le Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project: In Progress Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Xenial: New Status in qemu source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Artful: New Status in qemu source package in Artful: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] * on start of qemu-system-ppc64 MSR_SF is not set correctly So it doesn't start 64bit as it should * Todays guests usually work around this and are fine, but it is incorrect and might be an issue down the road. Furthermore this is also a fixup to some verification tests at the same time. [Test Case] * 1. deploy xenial + HWE kernel on a ppc64el box 2. sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm -y 3. git clone --depth=1 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm-unit-tests.git 4. cd kvm-unit-tests 5. ./configure --endian=little; make 6. sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=off 7. sudo ./run_tests.sh -v [Regression Potential] * The changes are ppc only and provided by IBM so the potential risk is retained to the owner of the Area. Further the change is very small, so it has a very low amount of being misunderstood. [Other Info] * n/a --- Similar to bug 1723904, bug 1712803.
