Bug#623584: initramfs-tools create a wrong directory tree

2011-04-22 Thread Giuseppe Sacco
Hi,
I made a few tests on this report and I found that the loader is not
looking at the right directories. Please have a look at this:

root@debian:/boot/f# chroot . lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --list bin/sh
bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libm.so.6: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory
root@debian:/boot/f# chroot . lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --list --library-path 
/lib64 bin/sh
linux-vdso.so.1 =  (0x7fff5f3ff000)
libm.so.6 = /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x7f7f96cd7000)
libc.so.6 = /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x7f7f96976000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 = lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 
(0x7f7f96f5b000)
root@debian:/boot/f# chroot . lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2  --library-path /lib64 
bin/sh


BusyBox v1.17.1 (Debian 1:1.17.1-8) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

/ # exit

As you may see, if I manually add /lib64 in the ld search path, then
libm is found and the busybox executable starts.

So, the problem with this initramfs image is that lib64 should only
contain the loader, and all libraries should be in lib. This is how it
is:

root@debian:/boot/f# ls -ld lib lib64 lib*/*
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root4096 Apr 21 14:28 lib

and this is how it is on a different (and working) amd64 system:

(files order is different since these machines have different locales)

Please note that on both system (outside of chroot) /lib64 is a link
to /lib.

So, if I move all lib* files from lib64 to lib, then create the gzipped
cpio initrd image and use this for booting, the busybox load and start
it work. Then fails because it cannot mont the root file system as shown
here:

[...]
Initialize network drop monitor service
List of all partitions:
No filesystem could mount root, tried:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS Unable to mpunt root fs on
unknown-block(0,0)
Pid: 1, comm: swapper Not Tainted 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1
Call Trace:
[...]

Beside the very last problem (I will intestigate about it), how do
initramfs-tools create the lib and lib64 trees? Does it use a
configuration file?

Bye,
Giuseppe

I don't think this is sufficiently critical for an oldstable update.
For stable, yes, we'll consider it once it's accepted upstream.  Please
let us know when that happens.


It looks like the patch is now in Linus' git tree.

Commit id is 1574dff8996ab1ed92c09012f8038b5566fce313

It's definitely in the 2.6.39-rc4-git4 patch.

 After upgrading to Squeeze, I am watching a Xen VMHost that after a

 In each case I connected a keyboard and monitor to the computer and the
 screen remained black without answering any key. When this happens, I
 noticed that the drive activity LED apparently is permanently on.

I presume it also stopped responding to network e.g. ssh as well? 

Do the magic-sysrq key combinations produce any output?

Can you reproduce it or did it just happen the once? If you can repro
then attaching and configuring a serial console would be useful, since
a) you could see if there was anything printed before the screen went
dark and b) you can access the Xen debug keyhandlers only over the
serial line.

Were you doing anything when it hung or was the system just running in a
steady state?

I notice you are running a 32 bit hypervisor. I would highly recommend
using the 64 bit hypervisor (package xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64) even on
i386. You can continue to use your 32 bit dom0 kernel and userspace but
the 64 bit hypervisor is much more reliable and better tested etc.

Bug#622828: recovery

2011-04-22 Thread Ilguiz Latypov

Contrary to my earlier conclusion, the upgrade did not delete
older images.  It appears a ramdisk generation change may have
included a bad module whose loading crashed the system later.

I could not boot other images because my Grub 2 configuration file
grub.cfg missed the corresponding initrd lines.  The latter were
missing probably because of a ramdisk generation failure.  This
resulted in a cryptic error message at the boot failure about
inability to find a root filesystem in a certain (0,0) disk.

As I mentioned earlier, after loading to a shell prompt by editing
the linux line in grub boot screen and adding init=/bin/bash, I
could disable swapping with swapoff -a, remount the root partition
in a read-write mode and start networking.  This allowed me to
update packages in aptitude.

I also had to boot off a recent Debian installer CD-R disk,

  http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/unstable/current/i386/iso-cd/

because I did not understand the reason for the (0,0) root disk
mount crash.  I also suspect that my manual invocation of
update-initramfs failed to include all required modules.

In the end, I dropped to shell from the rescue disk, mounted my
root filesystem with mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt and changed to
it with chroot /mnt.  I then re-generated the initial ramdisk
images with

  update-initramfs -k 2.6.32-5-686 -d
  update-initramfs -k 2.6.32-5-686 -c

and same commands for some other kernel versions.  This allowed me
to boot my system in full with 2.6.32-5-686 which turned to be the
original kernel version that worked long time for me.  (The newer
2.6.38..-686 kernel on which 2.6-686 depends crashes in the Wi-Fi
module mac80211 calling a function in cfg80211 when I attempt to
associate with my Wi-Fi router.  I logged that issue under bug
#622833).

Still, I do not understand how possible differences in
update-initramfs could cause a libata kernel crash.

Bug#620297: Same strange load calculation error on 2.6.32-30

2011-04-22 Thread Lesław Kopeć
Hello,

I've noticed the same strange load calculation inconsistency while
running kernel 2.6.32-30. Load values are reported too low for given CPU
utilization. As far as I remember older kernels from 2.6.32 line had
also the same problem. I did some tests on the same hardware using
2.6.26-26lenny2 and 2.6.30-6 kernels, but their load seems to be just right.

What's more puzzling is that load is reported correctly on 2.6.32 when
CPU cores are used in 100%, e.g. running:
# stress -c 4

reports load 4 when 4 cores are quite busy. However running about 80 php-cgi
processes when idle is greater than 20% (a rough estimation) results in
this load calculation error.

I did some searching and found similar bug report on Launchpad:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/513848

and a discussion on LKML:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/13/394

The patch proposed on LKML is the one that got applied to Ubuntu's
kernel version 2.6.32-20.29. I've patched the Debian's 2.6.32-30 and it
seems that load values are correct, although still a bit lower than on
other kernels.

Tests were run on simultaneously different servers (same hardware and same
jobs run) and I was getting similar results when I switched kernels between
machines.

It uses ldd to find which libraries each executable is linked to, and
copies them to the same locations they were found in the running system.
(Exception: where the library is optimised for specific CPU features, it
substitutes the unoptimised alternate from the parent directory.)

However, it does not copy the ld.so configuration files, and it does not
unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH.  Also, it does not use 'readlink -f' to resolve
symbolic links, which I think would solve this particular issue.

 Thanks. Closing this bug.

No, it's not fixed:

Bug#622333: Debian Squeeze hangs with kernel 2.6.32-5-xen-686

2011-04-22 Thread Daniel Bareiro
Hi, Ian!

On Fri, 2011-04-22 at 14:19:32 +0100, Ian Campbell wrote:

  After upgrading to Squeeze, I am watching a Xen VMHost that after a
  while it hangs. This did not happen when I was using Xen with Debian
  Lenny (in this case as with Squeeze, the Xen components are from
  Debian repositories).
  
  In each case I connected a keyboard and monitor to the computer and
  the screen remained black without answering any key. When this
  happens, I noticed that the drive activity LED apparently is
  permanently on.

 I presume it also stopped responding to network e.g. ssh as well? 

Yes, the connection to the VMHost like its virtual machines is lost. In
fact, one of the domUs has a DHCP server, and when this problem happens,
the hosts that are configured with the DHCP server loses network
connection.

 Do the magic-sysrq key combinations produce any output?

I didn't get to test it, but I will remember it when it returns to
happen.

 Can you reproduce it or did it just happen the once? If you can repro
 then attaching and configuring a serial console would be useful, since
 a) you could see if there was anything printed before the screen went
 dark and b) you can access the Xen debug keyhandlers only over the
 serial line.
 
 Were you doing anything when it hung or was the system just running in
 a steady state?

It happened several times. Surely I would say that at least five to ten
times. The last time that I had to do hard reset was 14 hours ago.
Unfortunately I have not a serial cable to connect to that computer
(it's a home server), but I'll see if I can get one for more information
to provide.

I was analyzing the /var/log/messages and the crashes occur at times
that do not currently hold any pattern.

 I notice you are running a 32 bit hypervisor. I would highly recommend
 using the 64 bit hypervisor (package xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64) even
 on i386. You can continue to use your 32 bit dom0 kernel and userspace
 but the 64 bit hypervisor is much more reliable and better tested etc.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've purge the 32-bit hypervisor and I've
installed the 64-bit hypervisor. I'll keep you informed. So far, records
of dmesg I mentioned are still appearing.

2011-04-22 Thread Yann Autissier

Hi,

It seems the issues is linked to a loss of connection with the ldap server.
I can get the process working back after a connection failure with the ldap 
serversince I use unscd in replacement of nscd.

 Ah, found it, thanks.
 
   If this is all that is needed in the main initramfs, will it
   take long to get the /run support into unstable?  It looks like
   this might be a prerequisite for a fully functional udev, and
   for other tools that store state in the initramfs, and it's a
   simple and safe change to make.  I've raised the severity due
   to the /run transition being dependent on this being fixed.
  
  there is *no* point in posting trivial patches round and round.
  if you'd build i-t with that branch and have it *well* tested
  in several different configuration, then that would be a help.
 
 What different types of configuration would you like testing?
 I'll be happy to test, but I'm not sure exactly what you would
 like varying.
 
 Current tests have been on a system with root on LVM on md RAID1
 using grub2.

I've also tested on a powerpc wheezy system and amd64 unstable kvm VM.
No issues found.

If you would like any other scenarios testing, I'll be happy to
accommodate you if possible.  However, given the simple nature of
the patch, I'm confident it's working correctly given that it's
mounted unconditionally and will be moved onto the host if /run
exists in all cases.

 By the way, could you consider adding this patch to your branch:

diff --git a/init b/init
index 38c8a5d..cdbfe50 100755
--- a/init
+++ b/init
@@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ if ! mount -t devtmpfs -o mode=0755 none /dev; then

+mount -t tmpfs -o nosuid,size=20%,mode=0755 tmpfs /run
 mkdir /run/initramfs
 
 # Export the dpkg architecture

Slightly simpler than the previous patch, but does the same job.
Please note that I've now patched initscripts
(http://paste.debian.net/114826/ and
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-sysvinit-devel/2011-April/004990.html)
 so that the filesystems mounted in the initramfs and later moved
over to the root filesystem are remounted with the mount options
specified in /etc/fstab (or /etc/default/tmpfs if no fstab entry
exists).  In consequence, it's no longer critical that the mount
option defaults in the initramfs match the real root filesystem
defaults, because they will always be applied by mountkernfs/
mountdevsubfs.  So if you choose not to apply this, that's fine--it's
just a nice to have addition; the patch as it stands without the
above change is equally acceptable.

Thanks for doing this.  Do we have any ETA on an upload?

Roger

Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.37-1
Severity: normal
Tags: sid

I have been running Debian on my laptop for years, and soon (possibly 3 days)
after switching from testing/squeeze's version of the kernel (+Xorg + libdrm)
to sid's version, my laptop's screen suddenly turned black, and didn't work
upon reboot.

This is apparently caused by the corruption of my laptop's screen EDID data
(the first byte changed from '00' to '1a').

I believe something in the I2C subsystem (or maybe nouveau's use of it) is
broken, as the number of invalid EDID reports is quite huge (EDID data is
retrieved by nouveau using a DDC2 call, afaik), and there are a few I2C error
reports (though much, much less than invalid EDID reports, but I had *none*
with 2.6.32-1).

More information on the bug I initally filed against nouveau:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34554

Note: I'm running 2.6.37-1 in spite of the corrupted EDID data, thanks to a
small hack I've made in DRM to ignore the first byte of retrieved EDID data.

Bug#617364: linux-2.6: lseek() over NFS is returning an incorrect file length under some, circumstances

2011-04-22 Thread Moritz Muehlenhoff


 Could you check back with Joe Conway and ask for commits IDs of the
 upstream fixes?

 I've got the following info from Trond Myklebust:

 The upstream fix is commit 27dc1cd3ad9300f81e1219e5fc305d91d85353f8
 (NFS: nfs_wcc_update_inode() should set nfsi-attr_gencount).

Greg,
please merge 27dc1cd3ad9300f81e1219e5fc305d91d85353f8 into 2.6.32.x
(and other supported longterm kernels)

It fixes the bug described in 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=617364

Cheers,
Moritz

Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.15-6

Currently, the modules.pcimap for DEC tulip chips is as follows:

tulip0x1011 0x0009 0x 0x 0x 
0x 0x0
tulip0x1011 0x0019 0x 0x 0x 
0x 0x0
de2104x  0x1011 0x0002 0x 0x 0x 
0x 0x0
de2104x  0x1011 0x0014 0x 0x 0x 
0x 0x0
lmc  0x1011 0x0009 0x1376 0x 0x 
0x 0x0
lmc  0x1011 0x0009 0x 0x1376 0x 
0x 0x0

Presently, neither de2104x nor lmc is being included in the installer
images for etch; this is because discover1-data lists de4x5 as the module
for *all* of these PCI IDs.  With the switch to 2.6 in d-i, this means that
a number of common NICs for alpha (0002, 0014, 0009) are not being
auto-detected by udev.  The de4x5 module *can* be loaded by hand on my own
system (1011:0002), and appears to work correctly; this is the driver that
I've been using under 2.6 on my installed system.  I am also now testing
de2104x; so far, it does appear to work.

The apparent trade-off between de2104x is that de4x5 does not support
full-duplex mode, whereas I have some vague impression that de2104x didn't
work on my system in some earlier driver revision.  However, the
discover1-data changelog doesn't support this; it mentions that 1011:1002
uses de4x5 because of bug #273265, which was about tulip, not de2104x -- and
tulip doesn't detect my card at all, so there's no doubt that *that* is the
wrong driver.

Recent discussion of this issue on debian-alpha included the following
response froman Alpha expert at HP:

 So should the 21040 and 21041 be switched from de2104x to de4x5, or should
 de2104x be added to the installer?  I seem to recall that I had problems
 with de2104x on my 21040 as well; and at least in 2.6.15, the tulip driver
 doesn't work at all for my card, I have to use de4x5.

 The discover1-data package seems to have de4x5 listed for *all* of these PCI
 IDs, but I think we may be using the kernel's map now with 2.6 (via udev).

I don't know of any problems using tulip on the 2114x chipsets. And
I don't think full duplex will significantly increase the throughput
of a 2104x chipset, so, yes, I'd think that using de4x5 for any 2104x
and tulip fo any 2114x might be the way to go...
---

We probably shouldn't make that change in Debian without talking to
whoever's responsible for these drivers upstream, though.  In the meantime,
I'm going to add de2104x into the d-i images.  This bug report is opened to
collect success/failure reports regarding the current driver mappings, so we
can be sure we're making an informed decision about these
historically-problematic PCI IDs.

For the record, de4x5 is currently not referenced in modules.pcimap at all,
so depending on the outcome of this bug report, it may make sense to drop it
completely from the 2.6 build...

Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-17
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

It would be nice to have the missing syscalls on Alpha wired up to bring it
up to date with the other architectures. It was unfortunate that the patch
sent upstream to achieve this was missed during the 2.6.32 development
window and didn't get merged by Linus unto 2.6.33.

I attach the patch patch-alpha-wire-up-syscalls.txt that wires up the
missing syscalls on the Alpha architecture and brings it up to date with the
other architectures.  This patch is a modification of the upstream commits
6e17e8b9fb74b9fb9f6ea331f7f4a049c5b4c4b8 and
21797c599c710d3851d241c4b50690f2482bf618 in that it replaces the recvmmsg
syscall with a placeholder as it is not available in 2.6.32.

As mentioned in bug report #588409 (which is now closed) support for
performance events on Alpha was merged upstream for 2.6.33.  I include here
the patch patch-alpha-implement-sw-perf-events.txt which is a combination of
the upstream commits a582e6f01b90211933e70edcec9bc0bbb1157402 and
fcd14b3203b538dca04a2b065c774c0b57863eec and wires up the performance events
syscall and provides the Alpha specific code to the perf tools.

I have tested both these patches applied to the Debian 2.6.32-17 kernel
source (though I did have to disable the buildcheck.py script as the ABI
didn't match) and it is running successfully on an Alpha PWS600au.

 Hi,
 
 I have been trying to configure nouveau for my nvidia card but looks like I 
 have a very preliminary problem
 for which I did not find a solution yet.
 
 
 X fails complaining that it could not find any of the device in /dev/dri/cardN
 On my box, even with nvidia.ko loaded, I do not have the /dev/dri/ folder at 
 all.
 
 
 Any ideas on where I should start investigating ?
 I did manually load the nouveau.ko driver as it does not autoload.
 
 Is it because of a missing udev rule ?

Does this still occur with more recent kernels?

Moritz

 It seems it's not possible to connect to WPA2 wireless networks with the 
 squeezix version of the rt2860 module.
 
 I've tested it with both network-manager and wicd. Both of them are unable to 
 authenticate with the correct password.
 
 Both have NO problems to connect to WPA-PSK networks.
 
 Tested with a Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH router. No problem connecting to that 
 WPA2 network with other devices.
 
 The router encryption is set to WPA/WPA2-Mixed TKIP+AES, using a preshared 
 key.
 
 Tested also after updating the rt2860 firmware-ralink to the Debian SID 
 version (v0.24). No luck, either.

Does this still occur with the final Squeeze kernel or more recent kernels?

Bug#623088: Options tried.

2011-04-22 Thread Neil Jamieson
Hullo,

I have tried advice found on the web about similar problems with Acer
5735Z.  This was to add i915.powersave=0 pci=noacpi to the boot line
(GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub).  This certainly got rid
of screen flicker, and reduced the frequency of the system log being flooded
/ reboot failure, but did not eliminate the problem which still occurs
seemingly at random.  The longer the computer runs the higher the risk, and
it seems to me that having ac power and battery on at the same time
increases the risk / frequency.

Cheers, Neil

Additionally I can comment that this time the crash occurred when I was

comment that the disk activity LED was constantly on (not flashing).

After hard reset it seems that something was unconscious in one of the

In /var/log/messages there is no evidence of any particular event from
the previous boot. The same in kern.log and syslog.

Yes, I contacted sta...@kernel.org regarding bug number 550898.  But
this situation is a little bit different.  With 550898, IBM wrote
a single git commit to fix a single bug.  Asking for that commit to
be back-ported was a routine matter.  But for bug number 607416 it appears
that they didn't do it that way.  Thanks to the information provided by
Jonathan Nieder, I was able to find the commit for this bug.  It is
listed below:

-

   commit f85cca6b25971a09efbe4c6a3ae405d40c8f86da
   Merge: 6f576d5 dd30ac3
   Author: Linus Torvalds torva...@linux-foundation.org
   Date:   Mon Feb 21 14:55:49 2011 -0800

   Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git390.marist.edu/pub/scm/linux-2.6

   * 'for-linus' of git://git390.marist.edu/pub/scm/linux-2.6:
 [S390] net: provide architecture specific NET_SKB_PAD
 [S390] atomic: use inline asm
 [S390] correct ipl parameter block safe guard
 [S390] atomic: use ACCESS_ONCE() for atomic_read()
 [S390] dasd: correct device table

-

As far as I can tell, only the last line is applicable to this bug.

 [S390] dasd: correct device table

In other words, instead of producing a single fix for a single bug,
they threw the fix in with several other miscellaneous fixes and enhancements.
I wish IBM hadn't done it that way, but they did.  Therefore, I am unsure
as to how to proceed.  Do I ask sta...@kernel.org to port the whole commit?
(It may have dependencies on previous commits and get complicated rather
quickly.)  Or do I ask them to cherry pick that one-line change in
drivers/s390/block/dasd_eckd.c?  I could use some advice here.

If you run git log dd30ac3 --grep='dasd: correct device table', then
the fix will show up:

 [S390] dasd: correct device table

 The 3880 storage control unit supports a 3380 device
 type, but not a 3390 device type.

See http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-merge.html for
details if curious.

Presumably that (5da24b76) is the commit to backport; I am not sure
which kernels it applies to.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
