The patch titled s390/qeth: fix false reporting of VNIC CHAR config failure
has been added to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary
The filename of the patch is: s390-qeth-fix-false-reporting-of-vnic-char-config-failure.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory.
Same for the the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary
The filename of the patch is: s390-qeth-fix-vnicc_is_in_use-if-rx_bcast-not-set.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory.
s390/qeth: fix false reporting of VNIC CHAR config failure
commit 68c57bfd52836e31bff33e5e1fc64029749d2c35 upstream.
Request: Please provide that fix also for Ubuntu 18.04 .
Many thanks in advance |
SRU Justification:
------------------
[Impact]
* For devices that don't support the 'INVISIBLE' characteristic (ie. OSA), the resulting IO failure raises the noisy error message "Configuring the VNIC characteristics failed"
* The INVISIBLE characteristic unconditionally gets switched off, which is reverted with this patch.
* For Internal Queued Direct communication (IQD) 'INVISIBLE' is off by default.
* Hence the INVISIBLE characteristic case is unnecessary.
[Fix]
* 68c57bfd52836e31bff33e5e1fc64029749d2c35 68c57bf "s390/qeth: fix false reporting of VNIC CHAR config failure"
* Upstream accepted with v5.5-rc5, but backport for 4.19-stable and 5.4-stable here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git
[Test Case]
* Configure an IBM z15 for LinuxONE III machine with at least one OSA adapter.
* Check dmsg for message "Configuring the VNIC characteristics failed" while setting an OSA device online.
[Regression Potential]
* The regression potential is low, since the patch is limited to a single line
* again limited to the s390x architecture and once again limited to the qeth network driver
* and on z15 hardware only.
[Other Info]
* This bug was identified at IBM while testing and is now rolled out to several different kernels.
* Once the patch got applied to the Ubuntu kernel(s) and a verification is required,
* this needs to be done by IBM, since Canonical doesn't have the needed machine generation.
