If it is "good", then great! ...and ok is good :-), so issued git bisect good v4.20 ...and I am going on there. So far: $ git bisect log git bisect start # good: [8fe28cb58bcb235034b64cbbb7550a8a43fd88be] Linux 4.20 git bisect good 8fe28cb58bcb235034b64cbbb7550a8a43fd88be # bad: [01047631df813f6247185547c3778c80af088a20] Merge tag 'xfs-5.2-fixes-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux git bisect bad 01047631df813f6247185547c3778c80af088a20 # bad: [bcd49c3dd172c38e14faf151adca63c8db4c9557] Merge branch 'x86-cleanups-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip git bisect bad bcd49c3dd172c38e14faf151adca63c8db4c9557 # bad: [fcf010449ebe1db0cb68b2c6410972a782f2bd14] Merge tag 'kgdb-4.21-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/danielt/linux git bisect bad fcf010449ebe1db0cb68b2c6410972a782f2bd14 Please correct if I am missing something, or doing something different from what you meant.
