Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker speaking. [TLDR: adding this regression to regzbot; most of this mail is compiled from a few templates paragraphs some of you might have seen already.] On 13.12.21 02:38, bugzilla-daemon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215317 > [...] > Something changed between kernel 5.16.0-rc3 and -rc4, and remains unfixed > between -rc4 and -rc5.

Adding the regression mailing list to the list of recipients, as it should be in the loop for all regressions, as explained here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/reporting-issues.html To be sure this issue doesn't fall through the cracks unnoticed, I'm adding it to regzbot, my Linux kernel regression tracking bot: #regzbot ^introduced v5.16-rc3..v5.16-rc4 #regzbot title Unable to launch QEMU Linux guest VM - "Guest has not initialized the display (yet)" #regzbot ignore-activity #regzbot link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215317 Reminder: when fixing the issue, please add a 'Link:' tag with the URL to the report (the parent of this mail), then regzbot will automatically mark the regression as resolved once the fix lands in the appropriate tree. For more details about regzbot see footer. Sending this to everyone that got the initial report, to make all aware of the tracking. I also hope that messages like this motivate people to directly get at least the regression mailing list and ideally even regzbot involved when dealing with regressions, as messages like this wouldn't be needed then. Don't worry, I'll send further messages wrt to this regression just to the lists (with a tag in the subject so people can filter them away), as long as they are intended just for regzbot. With a bit of luck no such messages will be needed anyway. Ciao, Thorsten (wearing 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 thus might sent someone reading this down the wrong rabbit hole, which none of us wants. BTW, I have no personal interest in this issue, which is tracked using regzbot, my Linux kernel regression tracking bot (https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/regzbot/). I'm only posting this mail to get things rolling again and hence don't need to be CC on all further activities wrt to this regression.
