Ever since Fedora(27) released a 4.17.x kernel, my MacBook Air (7,1)
is no longer able to boot at all. It hangs when trying to use the
NVMe disk controller:
nvme nvme0: controller is down; will reset: CSTS=0x3, PCI_STATUS=0x810
and the entire boot process eventually times out completely. If I
return to using the last 4.16.x kernel (4.16.14-200.fc27.x86_64), then
the problem does *not* reproduce, and everything boots normally.
i opened a bug for this problem:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1601196
however, I'm surprised that no one else has run into this issue. Any
ideas or suggestions?
thanks!
