git bisect log

Usually after booting the system and mounting the file systems a lot of I/O errors (ext4 and others) occur on a Lenovo ThinkPad T440p. X (kdm) also always fails to load on the same boot. I'm not sure which comes first: X failing or the I/O errors themselves.

Anyway, I bisected this issue to the following kernel commit:

[aabf19c27fc72c9c218844c8385744ff5620a229] drm/nouveau/device: recognise GK208

When bisecting, some of the built kernels PANIC-locked on boot, but using the "nomodeset" kernel parameter I was able to boot into userspace and verify whether the I/O errors issue was present (and the aforementioned issues still occurred even with "nomodeset" set).

This output is from an unaffected 3.12.8 kernel boot. Since we've either been unable to log in or save any files / log output after booting the affected kernels.

Probably duplicate of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78530

The issue does not occur when booting with nouveau.modeset=0 as a kernel argument.

We will watch the upstream bug
