Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking. This looks stalled, as afaics nothing to get this regression fixed happened since below mail. How can we things rolling again?
Eugene, were you able to look into the patch from Joakim? Or did I miss anything and some progress to fix this was made elsewhere? Please let me know if that's the case. Ciao, Thorsten (carrying his Linux kernel regression tracker hat) P.S.: As a Linux kernel regression tracker I'm getting a lot of reports on my table. I can only look briefly into most of them. Unfortunately therefore I sometimes will get things wrong or miss something important. I hope that's not the case here; if you think it is, don't hesitate to tell me about it in a public reply. That's in everyone's interest, as what I wrote above might be misleading to everyone reading this; any suggestion I gave they thus might sent someone reading this down the wrong rabbit hole, which none of us wants. P.P.S.: Feel free to ignore the following lines, they are only meant for regzbot, my Linux kernel regression tracking bot (https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/regzbot/): #regzbot poke On 02.11.21 22:15, Joakim Tjernlund wrote: > On Sat, 2021-10-30 at 14:20 +0000, Joakim Tjernlund wrote: >> On Fri, 2021-10-29 at 17:14 +0000, Eugene Bordenkircher wrote: > >>> We've discovered a situation where the FSL udc driver >>> (drivers/usb/gadget/udc/fsl_udc_core.c) will enter a loop iterating over >>> the request queue, but the queue has been corrupted at some point so it >>> loops infinitely.
