That would be a bit > easier to find IMO. Absolutely, in fact it's also possible to search in Lore for the original thread if there's no Link: trailer in the commit. Then if subsequent bisections get run, the bot could reply to say "still failing" with new kernel revisions until it's fixed and then reply to confirm it is. That's the plan, there's still a bit of work to do to have it all automated though. >> Some more details can be found here, for Cortex A9: >> >> https://linux.kernelci.org/test/case/id/614c36cf0c427f123799a2db/ > > I should have remembered there's a qemu model...

I believe earlycon is not set because it requires specific options on different platforms, so there's some configuration overhead involved here. But it's a very good point that has been raised in the past, I guess someone needs to take the time to look into enabling it properly. It shouldn't be that hard. Thanks for the feedback and the quick fix! Guillaume
