[Bug 2123886] Re: Add missing ARM-cores to support Vera-based systems

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Joao, or anyone else affected,

Accepted util-linux into questing-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-
linux/2.41-4ubuntu4.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
questing to verification-done-questing. If it does not fix the bug for
you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed-questing. In either case, without details of your
testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  When running "lscpu" on a Vera-based system, it doesn't report a model
  name:

  Vendor ID: ARM
  Model: 0

  [Fix]

  Adding the additional arm_part to sys-utils/lscpu-arm.c solves the
  problem. The commit below adds the specific codes missing from Noble's
  (and previous) versions.

  https://github.com/util-linux/util-
  linux/commit/908777470d403ec30c525472ba0d3701c9c5a223

  [Test Steps]

  * Verify whether output of lscpu is correct on new CPUs; eg:
  Vendor ID: ARM
  Model name: Olympus

  * Verify whether output of lscpu doesn't change on old CPUs; eg:
  Vendor ID: ARM
  Model name: Neoverse-N1

  [What Could Go Wrong]

  The fix only introduces additional model identifiers to match
  against and print a model name string, thus regression impact
  should be contained within lscpu and printing cpus model name
  on ARM systems.

  Output doesn't change on systems with non-affected CPU models.
