[CCing Richard, who apparently faces the same problem according to a recent comment in the bugzilla ticket mentioned earlier: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219331#c8 CCing Mario, who might be interested in this and is a good contact when it comes to issues with AMD stuff like this. CCing the Btrfs list as JFYI, as all three reporters afaics see Btrfs misbehavior or corruptions due to this. Considered to bring Linus in, but decided to wait a bit before doing so.] On 01.10.24 23:40, Chris Hixon wrote: > On 10/1/2024, 12:56:49 PM, "Linux regression tracking (Thorsten Leemhuis)" wrote: >> Basavaraj Natikar, I noticed a report about a regression in >> bugzilla.kernel.org that appears to be caused by a change of yours: >> >> 2105e8e00da467 ("HID: amd_sfh: Improve boot time when SFH is available") >> [v6.9-rc1] >> >> As many (most?) kernel developers don't keep an eye on the bug tracker, >> I decided to write this mail.
