Initially, the failure was: crashed: INFO: rcu detected stall in {sys_sendfile64,ext4_file_write_iter} Later, the failure changed to something completely different, and much earlier (before the test was even started): run #5: basic kernel testing failed: failed to copy test binary to VM: failed to run ["scp" "-P" "22" "-F" "/dev/null" "-o" "UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null" "-o" "BatchMode=yes" "-o" "IdentitiesOnly=yes" "-o" "StrictHostKeyChecking=no" "-o" "ConnectTimeout=10" "-i" "/syzkaller/jobs/linux/workdir/image/key" "/tmp/syz-executor216456474" "root@10.128.15.205:./syz-executor216456474"]: exit status 1 Connection timed out during banner exchange lost connection Looks like an opportunity to improve the bisection engine? - Ted
