--- Comment #7 from Kris Karas (bugs-a21@moonlit-rail.com) --- Hi Javier - I tested the (updated) patch from comment 6 on three different systems, two servers with a character-graphic BIOS (expected to use VGA16), and my development system with a graphical UEFI boot (expected to use EFIFB). I am happy to report that in all cases, the patch worked perfectly.
Thanks for having whipped up this patch!
Feel free to submit upstream to Linus, and also to Greg for inclusion in 5.15.y. Tested-By: Kris Karas bugs-a21@moonlit-rail.com
In reply to Thorsten in comment 4, I did indeed test against 5.15.13 and 5.16-rc8 without success. This makes me curious...
... I filed this bug nearly 2 months ago with the "Regression = Y" metadata clearly set; but the various kernel regression trackers haven't picked up on that fact until just days ago. Are automated regression trackers only looking at messages on LKML? What's the best way to get a bugzilla report for a regression tracked so that it doesn't get forgotten or lost in the shuffle? For example, bug 199533 was filed back in 2018, with a proper bisect even, but hasn't garnered even so much as a single comment. (Probably ought to be closed as I no longer have the hardware to test a fix :-)
