Hi,
how do you do bisect ?build all kernel commit one by one ?
as you did before:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1520982

I just did the one bisect using Linus' tree. After each build, I would do a test boot and see if the boot was normal or if I got errors and an eventual hang before boot.

Since then I have used git revert to revert just the problem commit from later kernels (such as v4.15-rc4) and when I do the system boots normally. And when I don't do the revert or just use stock Fedora kernels the problem occurs every time.

I also did a couple of tests with Josh Boyer's Fedora kernel tree that has Fedora patches on top of the development kernel.

what kernel source code do you use that occur warning at device_add_disk?
from fedora or any official release ? if so ,could you provide web link?

That was from an offical Fedora kernel. I believe I got it from the nodebug repo, but that kernel should be the same as the one that was normally used for rawhide. It is at https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1007500 but I don't know how much longer the binaries will stay available in koji.
if you use same kernel source code and same .config, why your own build
Cann't trigger that warning ?

I don't know. The install script may build the initramfs differently. As far as I can tell, if the WARN_ON was triggered, I should have gotten output.
