https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198123 --- Comment #6 from Felix Schwarz (felix.schwarz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) --- Ideally you use Linus' git repo: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/ As you mentioned in your first post you experienced problems when upgrading from 4.13.16 -> 4.14.3 so most likely something changed in the main development period of 4.14 for you. The merge commit 2040c473 you found supports that theory. Now you need to start actually bisecting. Just google for "git bisect". There is a lot of blog posts, tutorials etc for it. (Maybe https://stackoverflow.com/a/4714297/138526 helps you) As a start you can mark the merge commit and its predecessor as bad/good and git will take you from there. You will need to compile quite a few kernels and test them (way more than 2, usually 10-20 kernels). A common mistake is to mark a non-bootable or otherwise broken version as "bad". Only mark kernels as "bad" if they clearly have the problem you described in your report. If you can't test a specific version, use "git bisect skip". Use "good" if you are sure that a version is ok. Oh, btw: I recommend testing the most recent 4.15 rc (or even git master) to check the problem is still present. If it is fixed in a the current development version probably the easiest way for you is to ride the leading edge. Of course you can bisect anyway, maybe the patch can be backported to 4.14. Happy compiling. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
