[Adam Conrad (adconrad)]

Note to my future self: this is replacing a package that previously has an ABI bump, so there's both an LBM and a meta to copy with this when it gets released.

[Brad Figg (brad-figg)]

All builds are complete, packages in this bug can be copied to -proposed.

Derivative packages from packages here can be worked on, the following tracking bugs were opened for them:
linux-ti-omap4 - bug 1041405
linux-armadaxp - bug 1041406

[Adam Conrad (adconrad)]

Copied to -proposed.

[Ike Panhc (ikepanhc)]

I've test 3.2.0-30.48 on highbank machine. Reboot several times and all of them finish in 30 sec smoothly. No task hang reported.

[Luis Henriques (henrix)]

All bugs have been verified, moving to testing.

[John Johansen (jjohansen)]

No CVEs

[Brendan Donegan (brendan-donegan)]

Hardware Certification have begun testing this -proposed kernel (since Wednesday)

[Brendan Donegan (brendan-donegan)]

We have run into the following bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1044018

On the following systems:

Dell Inspiron 620
HP Z800 Workstation
Lenovo Thinkpad T510

After installation the system will not boot.

[Brendan Donegan (brendan-donegan)]

The bug above doesn't seem to be related to the -proposed kernel. We just switched over to testing with 12.04.1 instead of 12.04 so this could be the cause of the issue.

Otherwise we have completed testing on 41/47 systems. Three of the missing systems are not accessible at the moment due to a recent data center move, 2 are referred to in the bug report above and one has a bug which was not detected during certification so should not be tested.

The report is available at: http://people.canonical.com/~hwcert/sru-testing/wk35_2012/precise-proposed.html
