= Hi Maria,

Thanks for your report.=C2=A0 In practice you can safely ignore this test failure.=C2=A0 We had a similar report earlier that this fails on Ubuntu: <https://bugs.gnu.org/25476>.

Something we should do, though, is to at least skip the test when we
know we=E2=80=99re using a faulty kernel.=C2=A0 Currently we already have:<= br>
=C2=A0 ;; XXX: Skip this test when running Linux > 4.7.5 to work around<= br> =C2=A0 ;; <https://bugzilla.kernel= .org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D183461>.
=C2=A0 (when (or (not perform-container-tests?)
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 (version>? (utsname:release (u= name)) "4.7.5"))
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 (test-skip 1))

G=C3=A1bor, given what you wrote about Ubuntu=E2=80=99s 4.4 kernel, should = we
explicitly flag =E2=80=9C4.4.0-116-generic=E2=80=9D in a similar way?=C2=A0= Would it be
enough?



Yes, it seems that would be enough= .
We also have this "4.4.0-21-generic" for not x86.

Alternatively we can point Ubuntu users to the=C2=A0L= TSEnablementStack.
This provides a 4.8 kernel since 16.04.2. (feb= . 2017.)
=C2=A0
Thank you both!
