Kernel log from failed boot

1. Please describe the problem:

After a dnf upgrade just now, Fedora 31 fails to boot with the latest released kernel because of a hang at "Starting Cryptography Setup".  Choosing the previous installed kernel in the GRUB menu at boot resulted in a successful boot.


2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel: 5.5.6-201


3. Did it work previously in Fedora? If so, what kernel version did the issue
   *first* appear?  Old kernels are available for download at
   https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 :

Worked under all kernels used through 5.4.19-200 (the kernel I'm currently booted into).


4. Can you reproduce this issue? If so, please provide the steps to reproduce
   the issue below:

The boot failure is every time on this system, but I haven't yet tried to induce a failure on a new system.


5. Does this problem occur with the latest Rawhide kernel? To install the
   Rawhide kernel, run ``sudo dnf install fedora-repos-rawhide`` followed by
   ``sudo dnf update --enablerepo=rawhide kernel``:

Unknown -- this is a work laptop so would rather not try a Rawhide kernel on it.


6. Are you running any modules that not shipped with directly Fedora's kernel?: No


7. Please attach the kernel logs. You can get the complete kernel log
   for a boot with ``journalctl --no-hostname -k > dmesg.txt``. If the
   issue occurred on a previous boot, use the journalctl ``-b`` flag.

Comment 1 Hans de Goede 2020-03-01 13:11:31 UTC
This is a known issue on devices which use the new sof-hda audio driver because they have digital mics. This has been fixed in 5.5.7, which is in updates-testing now.

The following should work to update your kernel to 5.5.7:

sudo dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing update 'kernel*'
