Bug#774914: Still failing

2015-07-09 Thread Karl Schmidt

On a clean install of jessie - linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64  ro text 
i915.modeset=0 reboot=pci,force

This is on a winbook TW700

It is griping about fw_sst_0f28.bin-i2s_master

tried putting that file in /lib/intel/ fails to make things work.

I tired a i386 install that asked for a slightly different FW - still failed.

There is this in the journal

There are also various gripes about acpi but that seems to be the state of the 
art for Jessie.

Bug#714974: [Jfs-discussion] NFS 'readdir loop' error on JFS

Interesting stuff. Out of curiosity I just tried this myself, both client

I still haven't rebooted that machine - last chance to ask for any test info - as it looks like you 
have a test case anyway.


I haven't lost any data that I know of  - just programs complaining etc.

IMO, at one time, jfs was really a better choice ( good set of tools). Even in a few cases where 
hardware failed the jfs tools worked well. Today with everyone banging on ext4 it has become the 
better choice. ( I don't think IBM is interested in supporting jfs - no idea if they are phasing out 
jfs2? ).

The world runs on individuals pursuing their separate interests.
The great achievements of civilization have not come from
government bureaus. Einstein didn’t construct his theory under
order from a bureaucrat. Henry Ford didn’t revolutionize the
automobile industry that way.

This is a wheezy production server - I can run tests, provide information, but I'm about to purchase 
some spare drives and move the server to ext4 to protect the data. So if anyone wants information, 
now is the time to ask.


I will reboot this system in a few hours - waiting for your response.

( this problem took 25 days to reappear - so you might want to get some 
information ).

I'm an aging assembly programmer - I can do most things from the shell in Debian - I once did a 
little C programming - but digging into this code is beyond me.  On the other had, I am able and 
willing to supply what every I can to help.

Bug#714974: NFS 'readdir loop' error on JFS

2013-07-08 Thread Karl Schmidt

On 07/07/2013 08:13 PM, Ben Hutchings wrote:

Jonathan McDowell and Karl Schmidt reported that when sharing a JFS
filesystem through NFS and Samba, NFS clients can report 'readdir loop'
and the directories in question then appear to have duplicate entries on
the client system.

This was seen with Linux 3.2 on the server and client.  The JFS
directory code is basically unchanged since then, but NFS has changed
somewhat.

The original bug reports were:
http://bugs.debian.org/685407#85
http://bugs.debian.org/714974

The log messages are:
[593351.877678] NFS: directory fs/nfsd contains a readdir loop.Please contact 
your server vendor.  The file: .nfs3proc.o.cmda.com has duplicate cookie 73

[280774.570555] NFS: directory //accounting contains a readdir loop.Please 
contact your server vendor.  The file: .~lock.credit.rtf1.rtf# has duplicate 
cookie 199

Is this likely to be a problem with JFS, the NFS client or server?  Can
anyone suggest how to investigate this further?

Ben.


The experiment with NFS client on Windozs XP was bad - very poor performance. I'm told that it might 
work better in Windoze 7 - removed and back to samba.


For now, I am not having problems after commenting out this line in smb.conf

#strict locking = yes

Previously, I had already commented out :

#oplocks = no
#level2oplocks = no

But could still reproduce the problem.

I'm not sure it is fixed as there were time before when all worked well for some weeks before the 
errors turned.


Question: Is samba still using NLM protocol to lock files? ( I think NFS no 
longer uses that? )


,.,.,.
I've did find a different error during all this testing -included here as it might be related - 
perhaps due to the last nfs update.


in /etc/exports the server called malaysia we have:
/home/accounting 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

fstab on a Debian wheezy client:
malaysia:/home/accounting/mnt/accounting nfs   
defaults,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,intr 0 0

/mnt# ll
total 112
drwxrwsrwx 16 nobody nogroup  4096 2013-07-08 08:00 accounting/

This is wrong..

I think this may have to do with a bug workaround where the installer added
27.0.1.1 to the /etc/hosts file ?

Then there is /etc/idmapd and /etc/defaults/nfs-common on the client that I didn't used to have to 
mess with?


It is also important to have the fqdn as the first name in /etc/hosts
hostname --fqdn is correct on both machines


I think this might have to do with a fix for CVE-2013-1923

The changes I made included adding

NEED_IDMAPD=yes

to /etc/defaults/nfs-common

And removing no_all_squash which is now the default.

Is NEED_IDMAPD=yes now needed as reverse lookups have been turned off?

The debian wiki needs updating to let people know they need to if this is 
really the case?

It has been a long night..

You said here that this bug was fixed: http://bugs.debian.org/685407#152.  
Though I was
sceptical, as we didn't change anything in jfs.  So what has changed between 
then and now?


Worked fine for a while after I upgraded changed the kernel. (fooled myself 
good )
Now, I've realized problem only occurs in the directory that has a samba share - I had 2 strange 
settings trying to please a windoze side program:


oplocks = No
level2 oplocks = No

I tried removing these settings. - no joy - I was still able to get this error:


Jul  5 11:24:21 singapore kernel: [340720.514830] NFS: directory accounting/US-bank_viaklix contains

Just before that was this indication of a imap exchange:
Jul  5 11:24:17 singapore rpc.idmapd[2403]: nss_getpwnam: name '' not found in domain 
'xtronics.network'



Do I need to do something to update the cookies?

Any clues if this is samba related or jfs related?

Related to length of time from last reboot?


The problem seems to be limited to when both windoze and linux file browsers look at the same 
directory after a new file was created on the windoze side.


The other detail is that this setup had worked for years with the 2.6 kernel so likely some change 
in moving from squeeze to wheezy triggered the errors.

Probably specific to jfs, just as the other bug was specific to
ext3/4.  While this ought to be fixed in jfs, I would suggest moving
to ext4, XFS or ext3 as these receive more development and testing.


The plan is ext4 - (jfs was at one time a much better bet - I had been putting it off when ext still 
had issues)


Might have been something cached - I touched the directory having problems and 
now it is working..

Bug#685407: Should this get closed?

2013-06-08 Thread Karl Schmidt

I think I remember now - some bread-crumbs for others seeing this

I'm now running linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64 3.2.41-2+deb7u2 - no apparent problems

I think it was broken in linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64 ?

The workaround is to use the older kernel for now?

Less reasons to use jfs these days - will be migrating to ext4 at some point.

I would be happy to test the fixed kernel when it hits experimental.

I'm not seeing any more recent debian kernels available other than trunk - and it breaks 
initramfs-tools:


linux-image-3.8-trunk-amd64 : Breaks: initramfs-tools ( 0.110~) but 0.109.1 is

So I'm going to attempt the kernel patch..

sata_nv ADMA breaks ATAPI 4Gof RAM (AMD64?) and Which kernel will Lenny likely use when it is released?

2008-06-12 Thread Karl Schmidt

Please reply off-list

If you try to mount a SATA DVD or CDROM and have more than 4G on a amd64 system:

$mount cdrom
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0,
   missing codepage or helper program, or other error
   In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
   dmesg | tail  or so

$ tail syslog
Jun 12 14:30:17 singapore kernel: UDF-fs: No VRS found

But these error messages are a bit misleading - see the links below


I would think that they would fix the 2.6.24 4G bug if that is what they will release with, but from 
what I read that isn't going to happen?


Seems like it would be a bad idea to release with a kernel that prevents mounting the CDrom if you 
have 4G of memory.


I can't find this bug listed in debian for linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64, but I'm not sure that is the 
right place for it.

http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2007-11/msg07780.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg14797.html

There is a patch around #55
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=351451

I'm thinking of pulling in 2.6.25 from unstable for my machine running lenny, but don't want to 
create other problems once it goes stable.


How can I find the ETA of 2.6.25 entering lenny? (I think some of lenny is 
already frozen - would
that include the linux-image? (it isn't on the frozen list?)).

It goes away with kernel option pnpbios=off - but I don't know at what cost? 
(no PNP changes exactly what in the end?)


I wish someone could tell me if this is a kernel or BIOS bug?

This is a Tyan Tiger S2875

I've tried the nobiospnp setting with out any change.

This bug is still around - I would be glad to provide any info and run any 
tests.

I am trying to track down a problem with a nvidia card that I don't think is
related to this, but it sure would be nice to eliminate this variable.
