Please see the bisection report below about a boot failure. Reports aren't automatically sent to the public while we're trialing new bisection features on kernelci.org but this one looks valid. It appears to be due to the fact that the network interface is failing to get brought up: [ 114.385000] Waiting up to 10 more seconds for network. [ 124.355000] Sending DHCP requests ...# ..# .# timed out! [ 212.355000] IP-Config: Reopening network devices... [ 212.365000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready # I guess the board would boot fine without network if it didn't have ip=dhcp in the command line, so it's not strictly a kernel boot failure but still an ethernet issue. There wasn't any failure reported by kernelci on linux-4.9.y so maybe this patch was applied by mistake on linux-4.4.y but I haven't investigated enough to prove this.
