Bug#504721: Possible reason for serial console misdetection
Hi, I looked into it, and here's what I get on my SunBlade 1000 when I boot using serial console: ~ # dmesg | grep -i console [0.00] console [earlyprom0] enabled [ 53.918290] Console: colour dummy device 80x25 [ 53.971361] console handover: boot [earlyprom0] - real [tty0] [ 59.676537] Console: switching to mono PROM 80x34 [ 64.238061] Console: ttyS0 (SAB82532) [ 64.308951] console [ttyS0] enabled ~ # The logic in reopen-console is the following: 1. Look for the 'console handover' line in dmesg output and extract whatever is listed there as a real console. If it's successful, then we are done. In this case this line matches, but it contains an incorrect console setting 'tty0', referring to the terminal. As a result of this setting the information is still displayed on the serial console, but you cannot enter information through it, only keyboard input is accepted. 2. If we still don't have a value for the console, look for 'console [...] enabled' line(s), and extract console values from it. In this case two lines would match, producing console values 'earlyprom0' and 'ttyS0'. Function also checks whether corresponding devices in /dev exist, and if this reduces the number of values to a single console value, then this value is chosen. In this case /dev/earlyprom0 does not exist, so we would end up with a single 'ttyS0' value, which is correct. So, the problem is that reopen-console gives preference to the value in 'console handover' line, which is incorrect on sparc (refers to a real terminal console even if one is connecting through serial). If it is obvious, that sparc is unique that way, and it works correctly on other arches, the following (untested) patch might do the trick: --- a/src/sbin/reopen-console 2008-09-21 09:29:17.0 +0100 +++ b/src/sbin/reopen-console 2008-11-23 22:09:56.0 + @@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ sed -n -e 's/.*\] console handover: boot \[.*\] - real \[\(.*\)\]$/\1/p') consoles= - if [ -z $console ]; then + if [ -z $console ] || [ $(/bin/archdetect) = sparc/sparc64 ]; then # Retrieve all enabled consoles from boot log; ignore those # for which no device file exists for cons in $(dmesg -s 65535 | I'll try to ask around and see whether current console detection in reopen-console is correct for other arches. By the way, appending console=ttyS0 at the boot prompt fixes the problem, so can be used as a temporary workaround.

Bug#506711: kernel-package: [sparc] no longer produces compressed kernels for linux-2.6
Package: kernel-package Version: 11.0011 Severity: serious Tags: d-i Justification: kernels built using this break sparc D-I builds Daily builds of D-I for sparc have been failing with: gzip: ./tmp/netboot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-sparc64: not in gzip format This has been traced to the fact that the kernel as taken from the 2.6.26-10 linux-image package for sparc64 (built 08 Nov) is no longer compressed. As sparc still uses kernel-package to build official Debian kernel images (based on info from Bastian Blank), this is most likely a regression in kernel-package. It is unknown whether this issue also affects other architectures or not. The previous D-I kernel udebs were based on linux-image 2.6.26-8 (built for sparc on 9 Okt) did not have this issue, so at that time things were still OK. Please inform both the kernel team and the installer teams when this issue is fixed as we will need binNMU's for linux-2.6 for any (potentially) affected architectures and after that new uploads of the kernel udebs for D-I.

Right. So RC bug there. File it, with details. Even though I really was not planning to, I've just done so (#506711). I'm again disappointed that nobody else took the trouble to even try to trace this to its cause [1]. Especially as it turned out to be completely trivial. Given the error gzip: ./tmp/netboot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-sparc64: not in gzip format and util/tftpboot.sh (based on the fact that Geert fixed it there): snip kernel=$1 [...] case $arch in arm* | i386 | mips | mipsel) cp $kernel $tftpimage.tmp ;; *) echo uncompressing kernel gzip -cd $kernel $tftpimage.tmp ;; esac /snip So, the kernel gets passed in as the first parameter. A simple grep on tftpboot.sh leads to config/sparc/netboot.cfg, which has: tftpboot.sh $(TEMP_KERNEL) $(TEMP)/System.map.gz $(TEMP_INITRD) $(TEMP_BOOT) A short look at the Makefile shows: $(TEMP_KERNEL): $(STAMPS)tree-unpack-$(targetstring)-stamp So it looks like the kernel is simply unpacked from the linux-kernel udeb. As there have been no obvious relevant changes in D-I SVN but there *has* been a very recent upload of kernel udebs, the conclusion is simple. Waldi provided the missing link to kernel-package. There is absolutely NO NEED that I should be doing this. Next time I really won't. Of course, if others try, fail, and report what they have done and where they got stuck, I'll be quite happy to offer suggestions or, if all else fails, to give it a try myself. Just to be clear: handling the cleanup of this issue is up to others. See the BR I filed. The fix Geert has apparently done in his local buildd checkout is NOT a solution and should be reverted. Cheers, FJP [1] Geert's effort is of course very much appreciated, but only took things half way.

Re: Bug#506711: kernel-package: [sparc] no longer produces compressed kernels for linux-2.6
On Monday 24 November 2008, Manoj Srivastava wrote: Could you provide more detail, please? This is not enough to indicate where the fault lies. At a minimum, the kernel package invocation line, and the full logs of the build where failure was noticed should be provided to the bug report. Without this information, it is hard to diagnose the problem. The only thing I can see is that sparc processing in k-p defines NEED_DIRECT_GZIP_IMAGE. Now, what kernel-package thinks is the architecture is taken from either a) user specified value, b) dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU If the architecture contains the string sparc, then we arrange to gzip the image. If this is not happening, we need to determine if it tried to compress, but compressed the wong file, or it did not try to compress it at all, or if the actual image is in some other place. If the build logs for the kernel image show which of these scenarios it is, it can be easily fixed. So the build log of the kernel image would be useful. This has been traced to the fact that the kernel as taken from the 2.6.26-10 linux-image package for sparc64 (built 08 Nov) is no longer compressed. As sparc still uses kernel-package to build official Debian kernel images (based on info from Bastian Blank), this is most likely a regression in kernel-package. Why do you say this is a regression? Does the previous version work? What was the last known working version of the kernel-package? It is unknown whether this issue also affects other architectures or not. The previous D-I kernel udebs were based on linux-image 2.6.26-8 (built for sparc on 9 Okt) did not have this issue, so at that time things were still OK. Which version of kernel-package was being used then? Sorry, I cannot provide the requested info as I'll be off-line for a few day starting in 30 minutes.
