FWIW since the update before this one, we've seen a lot of
instability
in ppc:

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/main/builders/nightly-ppc-
lsb/
builds/881/steps/Running%20Sanity%20Tests/logs/stdio

basically the network seems very flaky. Doesn't happen every
time
but
we are seeing a rising number of these kinds of 'random'
failures.
Are
there any ppc changes or fixes which look like they're
responsible,
I'm
pretty sure its something 4.1 kernel related...

The update also triggered a new 'error' for amd_nb in the error
log
parsing which I just whitelisted, probably from some change in
the
configuration options enabled.
I have a 4.1.30 update queued locally, and I'll double check to
see
what may have changed in the configuration that could explain any
new warnings or instability.
Just to be clear, the amb_nd change was on qemux86* on 4.1

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/main/builders/nightly-x86-64-l
sb/builds/911/steps/Running%20Sanity%20Tests/logs/stdio

fixed with:

1e60df6e695d5bc0dd703a5bc2
I had a look at this, and I don't have a root cause for why this is
just popping up now. I'm trying to track down an older build, so I
can
compare the .configs.

The kernel code, and Kconfig files themselves haven't changed in some
time, and the symbol in question AMD_NB is default 'y' if the
dependencies are met. We include cfg/amd.scc in all of the qemux86*
builds, so it gets enabled (as it should have before).

I could force that option off, but the whitelist is an appropriate
fix,
since this is an interaction between qemu and the kernel, whereas the
files that include amd.scc are targeted at a range of platforms.

The ppc issue is a separate one.
I've been blasting away on my 4.1.30 qemuppc build, and I'm not
seeing
anything yet, but I will keep trying.
Its still going on even with the recent updates:

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/main/builders/nightly-ppc-lsb/builds/889/steps/Running%20Sanity%20Tests/logs/stdio

Seems the network works intermittently, dropping connections...

Cheers,

Richard
