Comment 3 for bug 1822870

Hi Michael R,

I tried to apply your patches to test them and support the effort to get them included in the Bionic kernel, but I'm having some trouble applying them:

ubuntu@dja-bionic:~/bionic$ git am ../patches/01-powerpc-64s-add-support-for-ori-barrier_nospec.patch
Patch format detection failed.
ubuntu@dja-bionic:~/bionic$ git am ../patches/01-powerpc-64s-add-support-for-ori-barrier_nospec.patch --patch-format mbox
Applying: commit 2eea7f067f495e33b8b116b35b5988ab2b8aec55
fatal: empty ident name (for <>) not allowed

How are you generating them? They don't look like they've been generated with git format-patch...?

Regards,
Daniel
