Runtime problems since next-20151008 with qemu/beagle boards

[Guenter Roeck]

Hi all,

ever since next-20101008, I am having trouble running beagle board
configurations in qemu. Example is multi_v7_defconfig with omap3-beagle
devicetree file, or with omap3-beagle-xm. The system just doesn't
boot anymore (no kernel log messages).

I have tried to bisect twice, but I don't get conclusive results.
The latest bisect log (from next-20151022) is below. I tried to bisect
into the merge commits; bisect specifically claims that the merge itself
is causing the problem, not any of the merged commits.

Couple of questions: Has anyone tried next-20151008 or later with above
configuration on a real system ?  If so, does it work ? If it doesn't work
on a real system, any idea what might be wrong in the code ?
If it works on a real system, any idea what might cause qemu to hang ?

Thanks,
Guenter
