I have some issues with this patch. For OMAP at least it looks like we have a cleaner fix. Specifically, what issues? Do you have a scratch build that incorporates the 'cleaner fix' that we can test? Fixed in 3.6.1 |
Created attachment 617790 [details] patch for omap and tegra configs to enable MMC support (built-in) Description of problem: The latest kernels (3.6.x) fail to boot from SDCard on Panda (OMAP) and Trim Slice (Tegra). The F17 kernels would boot from SDCard, so this appears to be a regression. The issue is a change in the kernel config files that made MMC support modules instead of built-in. Since the modules are not loaded correctly, or do not function correctly as modules, the rootfs is not found, causing the boot to fail. I suggest reverting the config changes until functional MMC module support has been completed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.6.0-0.rc3.git2.1.fc18 (and newer) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install latest kernel for OMAP or Tegra 2. reboot 3. Actual results: Fails to find the rootfs on the SDCard. Expected results: Systems find the rootfs and completes the boot. Additional info: The last known-good version from F17 was: kernel-3.5.3-1. Using the attached config changes (based on the 3.5.3 kernel), both systems boot from SDCard as expected.
