Subject: [PATCH] powepc: Clear PCR on boot
Date: Fri, 18 May 2018 11:37:42 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180518013742.24095-1-mikey@neuling.org> (raw)
Clear the PCR on boot to ensure we are not running in a compat mode.
We've seen this cause problems when a crash (and kdump) occurs while
running compat mode guests. The kdump kernel then runs with the PCR
set and causes problems. The symptom in the kdump kernel (also seen in
petitboot after fast-reboot) is early userspace programs taking
sigills on newer instructions (seen in libc).
