If your bug relates to a specific type of device, please include all configuration details for that device type as well as the job submission JSON and as much of the LAVA test job log file as you can (e.g. as a compressed file attached to the bug report).

If your device type is not one found on existing LAVA instances, please supply as much information as you can on the board itself.

If you, or anyone on your team, would like to register with Linaro directly, this will allow you to file an upstream bug, submit code for review by the LAVA team, etc. Register at the following url:
