Hi,
I would like some tips about how debug a issue with linux-next.
I'm trying to find things to do in kernel, and the first thing is boot the linux-next tree.
I'm able to compile the source, but when I boot I got a black screen a few times, or a just a warn in dmesg.
I'm trying to understand the issue, but no success. I tried to get kdump from the issue, but didn't work. I also tried to go back a few commits in linux-next, but my system doesn't boot at all.
How I can find the commit that create the problem, since every commit that I tested I got black screen ?
Whats the best way to debug this kind of issue ?
Thanks!
