            Bug ID: 204375
           Summary: kernel 5.2.4 w. KASAN enabled fails to boot on a
                    PowerMac G4 3,6 at very early stage
           Product: Platform Specific/Hardware
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 5.2.4
          Hardware: PPC-32
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: PPC-32
          Assignee: platform_ppc-32 at kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: erhard_f at mailbox.org
        Regression: No

I wanted to give KASAN a try to uncover even more bugs, but as it turns out a
KASAN enabled kernel does not boot at all on my PowerMac G4 MDD. ;)

Tried kernels 5.2.4 and 5.3-rc2, both without success. I can't give a dmesg as
the boot process stops/stalls very early, only showing two lines on an
OpenFirmware console (white background, black letters):
