  Hello,
  i'm using this virtual machine to export iscsi targets for windows
  machines to backup. It has 620GB btrfs partition with 550GB iscsi file_io
  LUN exported. I'm using btrfs snapshots to transport (consistent copy of)
  this big file to secondary backup storage (qnap and usb disk) - it takes
  around 12 hours to transport - thats reason to use snapshots. Everything
  was working fine, until i run out of space on btrfs (because of snapshot
  and fullbackup from windows combination). 
   Since than, i have created fresh filesystem and create empty new file to
   export over iscsi. 
  Now, around 250GB of writen data do iscsi file, kern.log starts to fill
  with these messages vfs_writev() returned -28
  
  It keeps to show on every access to iscsi (even rescan disk operation in
  windows triggers it)
 Any read access may change the image file's access time (atime) if you
 don't use the 'noatime' mount option.  On btrfs, metadata changes may
 allocate more disk space.
 
You are right, i forgot noatime option on mount

  I was suspecting btrfs, but there is no oops in kern.log.
  
  I tried to google this error and found nothing relevant.
 
 Error 28 is ENOSPC: No space left on device.
 
  I tried to reset everything (new filesystem, empty file, remove/add target
  from windows) and this errors comes back after writing approx. 250GB of
  data. (Before problem, file was filled to around 540GB).
  
  Size now:
  # du -cms iscsiSBS
  244561  iscsiSBS
 
 [...]
 
 What does 'btrfs filesystem df /btrfs' say (substitute the actual
 mountpoint for the btrfs volume)?
It said (i saved this before running balance)

Bug#684569: linux-image-3.5-trunk-686-pae: microcode module loaded on Celeron CPU

Dear Andi,


thank you for your response.

  Understood. Although I do not understand from where the updated
  microcode is fetched. The only way for desktop users were BIOS upgrades
  if I remember correctly. Linux does not ship the microcode, does not it.
  
  So I do not see what purpose this module has for desktop users.
 
 Intel regularly releases microcode updates and distributions are supposed to 
 do 
 regular package updates with the latest microcode file. You should
 get those with your normal update mechanism.
 
 In general it's recommended to run with the latest microcode.

Looking into this some more, this seems unlikely in Debian because the
microcode packages are in non-free [1] and therefore not available for
Debian users not having enabled non-free repositories.

Because of that the microcode packages are also non-essential, that
means not installed by default even when non-free packages are allowed.
And normal users will never install them by themselves.

So currently I am pretty sure 99, % of Debian users do not have it
installed.

 With the latest mainline kernel the microcode driver should be automatically
 loaded by CPUID probing through udev.

How can I find out, if the microcode provided by my BIOS is older than
the one provided by the processor vendor? I am pretty sure, that for
example Intel does not release any updates for the Celeron CPU in my
ASUS Eee PC 701 4G.


Thanks,

Paul

Bug#684636: CDROM fail to mount

2012-08-13 Thread Alain Rpnpif
Hi,

service hal stop makes that the CD/DVD NEC drive now works fine.
But with or without hal, LG drive does not appear in the list of drive
of Nautilus. This issue is randomly from one session to another. Perhaps
same issue that 620278.

mount /dev/sr1 /media/cdrom
Without hal, mount command line with LG drive only have the same bug
than this : about one minute to work with numbered SCSI errors.
After that LG drive works fine with mount only durong this session.

Bug#684636: CDROM fail to mount

2012-08-13 Thread Alain Rpnpif
OK : mount -t iso9660 /dev/sr1 /media/cdrom
works fine !
So the auto mode of mount is the cause of this issue.

Is linux-image package or mount package the responsable of this bug ?

The packages stuff used in d-i is limited. It only allows one version of

disallows several other constructs: Breaks, Conflicts and ignores all

I have the problem with multiple version on my list for a larger

backward compatible way.

Hmm, since this already had a 'Cc: stable', and applies cleanly, I
wonder why it wasn't added earlier.  Did it cause a regression that
requires a further fix-up?  I don't see anything like that in mainline.


I'm not aware of any regression caused by this patch. It is addressing
a regression that was introduced by commit d5bc77a223b0e9b9, which has
been added to 3.2.y. So in my opinion this patch should definitely go
into 3.2.y as well.

Bug#683807: bbswitch

2012-08-13 Thread asronche...@libero.it
Hi Ben,

I've seen the title has changed.

The first title (segfault while using mv ... ) was chaotic , i know. 
But bbswitch causes instability is not a correct title.

Indeed i tried:

a) use with nvidia driver + bbswitch . This lead to a crash.

b) i tried uninstalling nvidia stuff, bbswitch and bumblebee (aka normal 
system. It's like a fresh installation). It crashed.

c) i tried reinstalling bumblebee but disabling bbswitch (aka always use 
nvidia driver without the auto-remove-driver feature known as bbswitch). It 
crashed again.

then, 

d) i tried to use debian stable (i installed it on another partition on the 
very same hard disk). It still crashes.

So i think the problem is *not* bbswitch. The problem must be something 
hardware related. My notebook (Asus K52jc) must have some bad supported piece 
of hardware, i think that the problem is in some module(s).
This/these module/s is/are part of either 3.2.x kernels and 2.6.x kernels.

Atm this notebook is almost inusable :(
I really appreciate your activity here, please tell me if more information is 
needed to find where the bug is.

Thanks,
Asdrubale

Bug#684666: corrupted transmisison

2012-08-13 Thread asronche...@libero.it
Ben Hutchings - Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2012 21:02:42 +0100
'Breaks the whole system' does not mean the system crashed; please see
http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-bugs.html#s9.1.2.


Sorry, i'm a noob of the bug system (i started to submit bugs only recently).
Thanks for the link!

anyway, i see that 'Important' is related to new hardware:

important

We include lack of support for new hardware that is generally available.


is my notebook considered new hardware? I bought it on late 2010 but it came
to the market in the first months of 2010.

also, as i said, this bug is related (the same) to the one in 683807. This bug
causes data corruption in memory and *communications*, as in 'grave':

grave: ...or causes data loss...

We exclude loss of data in memory due to a crash. Only corruption of data
in storage or communication, or silent failure to write data, qualifies.


I had the very same errors with sshfs while copying data from this notebook to
the sshfs server.

Last night (i'm still using stable) i had that ssh error (with disconnection)
. I couldnt copy a file to the sshfs shared directory. So i used nc to 
transmit
the file and then i noticed that the md5sum of the origin and the one at the
destination was different (aka corrupted transmission).  The original file was
*not* on a ramdisk. It was on the hard disk (SSD).
I upgraded the hardisk some months ago. I bought an SSD disk. Could it be the
cause of the problem? Is there some special setting i have to use to correctly
use SSD on debian? Or is a simple 'mount and than reboot' enough ?

Thanks,
Asdrubale

That is correct, yes.  We may change the Debian installer to offer to
install the microcode packages for AMD and/or Intel to users that enable
non-free.  We could also document the availability of the microcode packages
in the release documentation, I suppose.  But Debian really isn't big on the
non-free stuff.

 the one provided by the processor vendor? I am pretty sure, that for
 example Intel does not release any updates for the Celeron CPU in my
 ASUS Eee PC 701 4G.

The easiest way, by far, is to attempt to update to the latest microcode in
the microcode distribution.

Assuming you're using Debian testing/unstable, install the intel-microcode
package (in unstable, install also package iucode-tool to avoid bloating the
initramfs).  Then grep for microcode in the kernel logs.  The 3.2 kernel
will log the fact that it had to update the processor microcode.  If it
doesn't log anything, either no microcode for that processor model is
available, or you're already running newer microcode.

In Debian stable, it works the same way but I am not sure the kernel will
log anything of value.

If you want to do it the hard way:

iucode-tool --scan-system will tell you your processor's signature
(requires the cpuid module to be loaded first).  If you're running Debian
stable, wait a few days for the Squeeze backport to hit the mirrors.

You can get the pf_mask and current version of microcode on each core from
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/microcode/, and you can check the
intel-microcode package changelog for your processor's signature to see if a
higher revision is available.

Hi,

Maik Zumstrull wrote:

 This is on an Ivy Bridge Xeon E3 with GPU. I thought it was the X
 driver, because i915 KMS works fine for the console, it only crashes
 when trying to bring up X. But I pulled in the 2.20.2 driver today and
 it still happens. So I now think the problem is in the kernel.

 3.2 crashes as well, but not as hard as 3.4. With 3.2, X doesn't come
 up, but you can switch to a console and reboot. 3.4 needs the reset
 button.

 And normal users will never install them by themselves.

Sounds like a problem. They actually fix bugs so it's recommended.
BIOSes are not normally updated regularly, so the microcode update
gives you a faster path to that.

 
 So currently I am pretty sure 99, % of Debian users do not have it
 installed.
 
  With the latest mainline kernel the microcode driver should be automatically
  loaded by CPUID probing through udev.
 
 How can I find out, if the microcode provided by my BIOS is older than
 the one provided by the processor vendor? I am pretty sure, that for
 example Intel does not release any updates for the Celeron CPU in my
 ASUS Eee PC 701 4G.

The newer kernels report the microcode version in /proc/cpuinfo
If not you can probably use some tool like x86info.

Check version.  Load the latest microcode. Compare versions.

You can see why an OS distributor would be stuck in this situation,
though.  If the microcode updates are installed by default, Debian is
taking responsibility for their effect (in the sense of receiving bug
reports and providing updates when appropriate to address them).  And
that is very hard to do without the corresponding source code.

At least when updates come through the BIOS the OS distributor does
not have to be involved.  The non-free packages also allow users to
use the updates from Intel without too much fuss when they want them.

Hoping that clarifies,
Jonathan

One alternative would be to offer a downloader.

Just hiding them from the user is not a good policy.
Microcode updates can contain security updates (among other fixes), so you
should have some mechanism to distribute them to your users.

If you don't want to offer these updates you should at least
clearly explain those tradeoffs to your users.

It is not the lack of source code[1] that is the problem.  It is the
absolute lack of any sort of release guidance whatsoever from Intel when a
new microcode update is made available.

Bug#684352: Wifi kill switch always on unless ACPI=off is used

2012-08-13 Thread David Smith
With acpi=off

Miho:/home/david# rfkill list all
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no


Without using acpi=off

Miho:/home/david# rfkill list all
0: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: yes
Miho:/home/david#

This where it says the wireless is hard blocked, which is incorrect as I
can just do this with software...

Miho:/home/david# rfkill unblock all
Miho:/home/david# rfkill list all
0: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no

Then it shows that it is not hard blocked.



After that, the wireless now seems to be working.  I press the hardware
switch to disable the wireless and then I get...

Miho:/home/david# rfkill list all
0: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
Miho:/home/david#


Which is correct as expected... Aside from the fact that it appears I have
two wireless devices when I do not.

1) The problem seems to be that every time the PC is started for the first
time, rfkill says the wireless is both hardware and software blocked, but
really it is just software blocked.
2) rfkill seems to suggest I have two wireless LAN network cards, this is
incorrect.  One of my wireless LAN connections disappears when I boot with
ACPI=off, the wireless is not hardware or software blocked, and the
wireless works.
