I have been preparing a build with 6.17.1, but I've been hitting several bumps along the road. Most recently, zfs from Flatcar stable complained that it only supported up to...
More headaches. The way that the kernel Makefile is setup has now changed in a way that breaks for us path-wise. I'm not sure how it works for Gentoo though,...
Okay, here is [a build of 4230 with Linux 6.17.1](https://bincache.flatcar-linux.net/images/amd64/9999.9.9+stable-linux-6.17-3/). Please keep a copy, as it will get cleaned up eventually.
That's a great find, thank you. There are mixed feelings about kexec in the team. I think it's cool, but I haven't really used it much, while others believe it...
I may be able to test with that patch reverted. Let's get all the info we can before bothering the maintainers.
I've now produced the issue under QEMU using the above instructions. Thanks for the nice repro.
I tried to come up with an even simpler reproducer, where it just skips the install and kexecs `flatcar_production_pxe.vmlinuz` over a 9p mount to the host. I've tried it several...
It's not the build I was using. I tried using that memory eater to eat just some of the RAM before using kexec. I also tried installing Flatcar to disk...
I've managed to reproduce it without adding a disk or installing at all. If you use `rd.earlyshell` to drop you into the minimal busybox initrd, you can run the memory...
This issue is very picky! If I use `--initrd` to merge a very tiny initrd over the existing one with a replacement `init` script or even just an additional `eat-mem`...
