I have been following this thread with interest, but did not comment so far. I have a ThinkPad T14 AMD Gen 5 and I am in contact with Mark about some issues with the new platform as Lenovo readies their Linux support for it. It is already working quite good, but a few strange issues remain. I currently installed linux-firmware upstream package on top of the Debian ones in order to for example make WLAN and Bluetooth work but I am happy to remove it once I see the new version of the Debian packages coming in and report in case I see any issues. I can report here before accidentally opening any bug report needlessly. But I could also open a bug report if need be. Best, -- Martin

In case you do this, I'd like there to be a NEWS.Debian entry about this, explaining both the justification behind it and how people can work around it. It could go like this: --- Since version xyz of kmod the file /etc/modprobe.d/block-unsafe- filesystems.conf prevents loading of several filesystem modules that are automatically loaded by udev when inserting a medium that contains one of them. These filesystems are either known to be unsafe or are not maintained actively anymore. A deliberately corrupted filesystem structure could trigger the filesystem driver in the module to crash, corrupt memory of other kernel components or to cause other problems. [Adjust to whatever risks are most likely to occur] [Add some links here for the discussion about that] In case you rely on using one or more of these filesystems you can either edit the file /etc/modprobe.d/block-unsafe-filesystems.conf and put a comment sign before the filesystem in question or add the filesystem to a file to a file in /etc/modules-load.d/. [Please clarify here as needed] Please take care not to plug in any device that you do not trust. --- This is just a rough idea it probably needs several iterations to obtain a good wording that balances on assessing the risk correctly (without over or under estimating it). Also the method of circumventing the blocking may need further explanations. I am not using systemd, so I can not describe exactly how modules-load.d works. In case you like to use any of the above wording, feel free to use it under the license of the packaging of kmod. I wonder about other kernel modules in other areas of the kernel that may be automatically loaded when connecting some hardware… especially some random USB device, but… that appears to me like opening a huge can of worms. I bet the Linux kernel has more than several hundreds of specialized USB drivers maybe even more than thousand meanwhile despite all the USB standards out there? Linux is not a micro kernel. It was not designed to run drivers in a restricted and (somewhat) safe environment to begin with. That means ideally you'd have to audit all the drivers for security issues regularly or at least after a certain amount of changes made to it. In case you do not, for some random driver it will be difficult to know for sure whether it is safe or unsafe to use. Maybe some small filesystem driver like affs that still receives a patch every now and then is safer to use than the much more complex BTRFS filesystem driver.¹ Who knows? Of cause some fuzzing may really help. But it is not a guarantee either. And then what about other kernel functionally that is loaded as module on demand that is only rarely used by some people? So I wonder what body of evidence there is to base a policy decision on which driver to load or not to load automatically. Without a reliable body of evidence there is always the risk to either over or under policy the users of Debian and derived distributions (whose maintainers do not decide to change such a policy decision again). So I'd argue against taking the quick route on that to allow the time for a more informed decision. Maybe start with clear-cut cases likely probably HFS/HFS+ instead of just adding all kinds of other filesystems without even know whether there is a known exploit. Of course you could go by maintenance status, however, this can be inaccurate. How to do accurately determine maintenance status, especially as MAINTAINERS file may not be accurate or up-to-date at all times? And how many specialized USB drivers are there that are compiled as modules on Debian kernels that may not

Sure, I know that. And yes, it appears the source package puts the config together from various sources. But that was the closest approximation I came up with so far.

Did you review the thread "I/O hangs after resuming from suspend-to-ram" on LKML (I think I have been epically misunderstood in this thread as it can indeed be the case that my issue is also related to blk-mq, I am currently using cfq again and machine is stable on resume from suspend)?

I have an old ThinkPad T42 above my hi-fi equipment as a media player and it stopped resuming from hibernation after some update quite some time ago. But instead it just boots as if there would be no hibernation image. On hibernation it actually does write the hibernation image – I use in kernel hibernation, not userspace software suspend, but I think I tried using that one as well. Currently I don´t have uswsusp installed, but pm-utils is still there. I am not sure whether systemd uses it or does it all by itself tough. I configured in-kernel suspend there as well: shambhala:/etc/pm> cat ./config.d/sleepmodule.conf SLEEP_MODULE=kernel Currently initramfs-tools is at 0.127 on this not so regularily updated laptop. I never managed to get around actually looking whats going on here, but I now found that I do not have any resume setting in shambhala:/etc/initramfs-tools> grep -ir "RESUME" . shambhala:/etc/initramfs-tools#1> Instead I have it here: shambhala:/etc/default> grep -i resume grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="resume=/dev/sda2 init=/bin/systemd" shambhala:~> swapon -s Dateiname Typ Größe Benutzt Priorität /dev/sda2 partition 4000180 0 -1 shambhala:~> lsblk /dev/sda2 NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda2 8:20 3,8G 0 part [SWAP] shambhala:~> LANG=C swapon -s FilenameTypeSizeUsed Priority /dev/sda2 partition 4000180 0 -1 Okay, I will upgrade to the new initramfs-tools and look whether it fixes the issue.

Bug 190711 - Process accounting: Using the NETLINK inface, the command TASKSTATS_CMD_GET returns -EINVAL https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=190711 The code that is used by the atopacctd daemon is based on the demo code 'getdelays.c' that can be found in the kernel source code tree (/linux/Documentation/accounting/getdelays.c). Also this 'getdelays' program does not work any more (also -EINVAL on the same call) with the newer kernels. I really spent a lot of time on this issue to get the code running (there are many places in the kernel code where -EINVAL for this call can be given), but I did not succeed. It is really an incompatibility introduced by the kernel code. It would be nice if the kernel maintainers provide a working version of the getdelays program in the kernel source tree. I only experience this problem on Debian8 with a 4.8 kernel (virtual machine with 4 cores). On CentOS7 with a 4.8 kernel it works fine (physical machine with 4 cores). I will anyhow adapt atopacctd for this issue that it detects and logs the -EINVAL and terminates. The current version of atopacctd keeps running which is not useful at all. Marc Haber, maintainer of atop package, Gerlof Langeveld, developer of atop and I are currently discussing workarounds with atop and/or systemd service fail for the time till upstream kernels with this issues fixed are shipped by distributions. Still it would be nice to remove those work-arounds and have the kernel work correctly again at some time in the future.

I think it also fails with earlier versions, but I do not know exactly since which version. 1) Sometimes process accounting does not work at all. Bug 190271 - process accounting sometimes does not work https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=190271 The acct() system call (to activate process accounting) return value 0, which means that process accounting is activated successfully. However, no process accounting records are written whatsoever. This situation can be reproduced with the program 'acctdemo.c' that you can find as attachment. When this program gives the message "found a process accounting record!", the situation is okay and process accounting works fine to the file '/tmp/mypacct'. When the message 'No process accounting record yet' is repeatedly given, process accounting does not work and will not work at all. It might be that you have to start this program several times before you get this situation (preferably start/finish lots of processes in the mean time). This problem is probably caused by a new mechanism introduced in the kernel code (/linux/kernel/acct.c) that is called 'slow accounting' and has to be solved in the kernel code. I experience this problem on Debian8 with a 4.8 kernel and on CentOS7 with a 4.8 kernel.

Bug#847204: Related bugs regarding systemctl status nfs-kernel-server
Hello Riccardo, Bug#847204: nfs-kernel-server: `systemctl status` incorrectly reports server "active" even if not started and Bug#843063: systemd: does not show failed nfs mount when nfs server not available on booting the client are likely related to one another.

I suggest you to report this upstream. There are at least two known BTRFS hang issues even with 3.19 kernel being reported on the BTRFS upstream mailing list at vger.kernel.org. See this thread: 3.19-rc5: Bug 91911: [REGRESSION] rm command hangs big time with deleting a lot of files at once (and bugzilla.kernel.org bug with that number) 3.15 and 3.16 had another hang issue that should be fixed with 3.17 and hopefully also with a 3.16 update see: fix for the infamous deadlock [1] https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Changelog#v3.17_.28Oct_2014.29 [1] https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=9e0af23764344f7f1b68e4eefbe7dc865018b63d (I think there are some other related commits fixing hanging along compressed write, like with compress=lzo mount option, I think they may be already in the 3.16 kernel you are using from the package.) Also a general recommendation for me, leave enough free space. Ideally so much that BTRFS can still allocate new chunks from unreserved space, see: [Bug 90401] New: btrfs kworker thread uses up 100% of a Sandybridge core for minutes on random write into big file I am not sure whether any of the mentioned bugs are similar to what you see as I didn´t compare the backtraces. If the backtrace looks different than any of those in the bug reports and related mail threads, I strongly recommend that you report a bug upstream with bugzilla.kernel.org I think it can help the debian kernel team tremendously to be able to cherry-pick an upstream patch, but for that one needs to be written or exist already :). I am not a member of the Debian kernel team, I just monitor the debian-kernel mailinglist and use BTRFS since several years already on an increasing amount of systems. That just as a few pointers that you may use to find your way to move along with the bug you have. If you choose to report upstream, do some echo "t" > /proc/sysrq-trigger and cut attach the correspondending output of /var/log/kern.log to the upstream bug report.

You *must* > use the /dev/mapper device name so that the lvm2 script can work out > which VG to activate. (It is not safe in general to activate all > visible VGs.) Its not me using a UUID, its update-grub. In /boot/grub/grub.cfg I have: linux /vmlinuz-3.16-0.bpo.3-686-pae root=UUID=[some UUID] yet in /etc/fstab I have: /dev/mondschein/debian / ext4defaults 0 1 In /etc/default/grub I do not set the root= parameter manually. In fact I have: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" So I do not see where I tell grub to use a UUID. For reference here is the complete grub configuration: # If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update # /boot/grub/grub.cfg. # For full documentation of the options in this file, see: # info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration' GRUB_DEFAULT=0 GRUB_TIMEOUT=5 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian` GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" # Uncomment to enable BadRAM filtering, modify to suit your needs # This works with Linux (no patch required) and with any kernel that obtains # the memory map information from GRUB (GNU Mach, kernel of FreeBSD ...) #GRUB_BADRAM="0x01234567,0xfefefefe,0x89abcdef,0xefefefef" # Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only) #GRUB_TERMINAL=console # The resolution used on graphical terminal # note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE # you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo' #GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480 # Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux #GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true # Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries #GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true" # Uncomment to get a beep at grub start #GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1" On Sid tough update-grub creates this: root=/dev/mapper/sata-debian which does seem to fit what you say initramfs-tools requires (except that by default it adds both devices to BTRFS RAID 1, see below about bug 747653). Please re-open and if you really think its not initramfs-tools bug, reassign to grub-pc for having it use /dev/VG/LV syntax instead. Or advise on another solution. I can also keep the work-around of course, but its important to make sure that in Jessie this setup will work without any additional work-around. And if UUIDs are not supported for LVM, I think this deserves a promiment mention somewhere as well. Cause not booting due to not activing a logical volume is not so nice to the user. This may be solved there with a patch similar to what upstream provided: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=747653#25 I did not yet come around to build grub-pc myself into /usr/local and test this patch.

We found out about it on one of my Linux performance analysis & tuning trainings as participants of the training measures NFS performance with dd with and without tuning and it was actually better without tuning. cat /proc/mounts – /etc/mtab wasn´t a symlink to it back then – revealed the difference.

Also note that dd may not be the best measurement tool depending on your workload and that you will have caching effects with dd unless you use oflag=direct, which I never tested with NFS mounts, or at least to correct the measured time with conv=fsync (I think). There are some nice slides from Greg Banks from SGI about NFS performance. I can dig out the URL to it when they are still available online next week at work. They are from 2008, but were much more up to date than many other things I found on the net. Most of it is not only outdated, but plain wrong meanwhile. > I still consider this issue important, I think that a lot of people that > upgrade to Jessie with nfs mounts will found some problem. but this is just > MHO. I wonder tough whether there is a high probability for a "fix" for wheezy, as jessie is shortly before release and its not a bug in itself, but a performance issue. And: It may be fixed by just upgrading the kernel to the 3.16 bpo one.

Bug#752381: initramfs-tools: does not activate logical volume before trying to mount root filesystem on LVM
Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.115~bpo70+1 Severity: important What did I do: Today I installed backports version of open-vm-dkms and upgraded to most recent 3.14 backport kernel from a previous version of it I installed due to using BTRFS with skinny meta data on one partition. Current results: After this the machine failed to boot. It didn´t find the root filesystem by its UUID. I typed "vgchange -ay" in initramfs and then Ctrl-D and then it booted. This used to work without manual interaction before. To make it boot consistently I added as a work-around: mondschein:~> cat /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/lvm-manual #!/bin/sh PREREQ="lvm" prereqs() { echo $PREREQ } case $1 in prereqs) prereqs exit 0; esac . /scripts/functions log_begin_msg "Activitating logical volumes (as it does not seem to be done automatically at the moment)." vgchange -ay log_end_msg which I had handy as I use a similar workaround for enabling BTRFS RAID 1 boot on my laptop, which does not work as default. This worked after actually chmod'ing +x it :) Expected results: Machine boots without manual adaptions to InitRD. Additional information: The machine still boots from an Ext4 filesystem. The BTRFS filesystem is mounted later on by fstab. There is a lvm and a BTRFS script in InitRD already, but the lvm script did not seem to work properly: mondschein:~> lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-3.14-0.bpo.1-686-pae | grep script scripts scripts/functions scripts/nfs scripts/init-bottom scripts/init-bottom/udev scripts/init-bottom/ORDER scripts/local-premount scripts/local-premount/btrfs scripts/local-premount/resume scripts/local-premount/ORDER scripts/local scripts/local-top scripts/local-top/lvm-manual scripts/local-top/lvm2 scripts/local-top/ORDER scripts/init-top scripts/init-top/blacklist scripts/init-top/keymap scripts/init-top/udev scripts/init-top/ORDER scripts/init-top/all_generic_ide I thought it was an update to initramfs-tools causing this, but these have been upgraded last week already: Start-Date: 2014-06-12 11:46:49 Commandline: apt-get install -t wheezy-backports linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.1-686-pae linux-headers-3.14-0.bpo.1-686-pae btrfs-tools Install: linux-headers-3.14-0.bpo.1-686-pae:i386 (3.14.5-1~bpo70+1), linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.1-686-pae:i386 (3.14.5-1~bpo70+1), linux-compiler-gcc-4.6-x 86:i386 (3.14.5-1~bpo70+1, automatic), btrfs-tools:i386 (3.14.1-1~bpo70+1), liblzo2-2:i386 (2.06-1, automatic), linux-kbuild-3.14:i386 (3.14-1~bpo70+1, automatic), linux-headers-3.14-0.bpo.1-common:i386 (3.14.5-1~bpo70+1, automatic) Upgrade: initramfs-tools:i386 (0.109.1, 0.115~bpo70+1) End-Date: 2014-06-12 11:48:06 And there rebooting the machine worked out of the box. So maybe something in open-vm-tools or open-vm-dkms from wheezy-backports interacts with InitRD script stuff in a way that breaks boot.

I found out that it will need the framepointer stuff which makes the kernel slightly larger and slower only after writing the bug report. While I do not care that much about the megabyte given current memory sizes, I am concerned about the "slightly slower". And then its declared as kernel hacking feature in the configuration anyway. And for older / embedded machines 1 MiB might be much. So I can understand your reasoning. Feel free to close as won't fix or "dependent / waiting for upstream fix" if thats possible. > It is probably possible to change the way the latency records are kept > so that this memory is allocated only when needed, but I'm unlikely to > find the time to do that. Care to elaborate on that one a bit. I am willing to open a upstream bug report about that and include your idea and a reference to this debian bug report.

Thanks for that ultra quick answer. I am willing to reopen the bug report at kernel.org if something should be changed upstream and I precisely understand what it is. So please advice.

Package: linux-image-2.6.17-1-686 Version: 2.6.17-4 Severity: important Please consider fixing repeated slight corruption with XFS by applaying a small patch: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6757#c8 It fixes the slight corruption I had on my IBM ThinkPad T23 and works stable here. I hope it will get into the next stable kernel release for 2.6.17.

Hello Jonas, well I cannot use a UUID either with yaird and replacing "LABEL=debian" by "/dev/disk/by-label/debian" seems to work, so the bug I reported appears to be similar to #337065. I have no reiserfs oder ext3 root partition to test whether it would work with other filesystems.

Bug#272523: Not really fixed
Hello, well in further tests I had two more cases where it didn't boot like described before. During my last tests where 4-5 boots with version 2.6.8-4 worked flawlessly I had no AVM PCMCIA ISDN Fritzcard in my laptop. In the two cases where it didn't work again I had the AVM PCMCIA ISDN Fritzcard back in. But in a third case - directly afterwards - it still did work with the card plugged into the PCMCIA slot. So this does not seem to be fixed completely. Its difficult to find a pattern in all of this.

Bug#272523: Booting without vga=791 parameters yields further information

Bug#272523: Now it booted once, but still does not boot most of the time
Hello, I now installed GRUB under Debian and now kernel-image.2.6.8-1-686 (version 2.6.8-3) booted once, and then even K3b recognized the Teac DVD writer in the laptop - this didn't work with version 2.6.8-1 and 2. But I tried three more times and it didn't boot again. Now I am using 2.6.7-1-686 again. This one sometimes also does not boot, but I have more look getting it to boot than 2.6.8-1, version 2.6.8-3. I never had any problems to boot with 2.6.8-1, version 2.6.8-2 and 2.6.8-1, but with these K3b isn't able to use the DVD burner. This is the GRUB configuration I use now: title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.8-1-686 root (hd0,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-1-686 root=/dev/hda5 ro vga=791 initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-1-686 savedefault boot title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.7-1-686 root (hd0,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.7-1-686 root=/dev/hda5 ro vga=791 initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.7-1-686 savedefault boot This is the versions of the grub package I use: 0.95+cvs20040624-8 Probably also important: Grub bootloader, kernel images and initrd files are located on a XFS partition. But before I used the GRUB installation from SuSE and this one is located on Reiserfs. Still the Debian kernel always was on that XFS partition. If you need any further tests, please let me know. I have 2.6.6, 2.6.7, 2.6.8, including version 2.6.8-3 (now installed) and 2.6.8-2, available locally right now. Regards, -- Martin 'Helios' Steigerwald - http://www.Lichtvoll.de

I did not find an easy way to add these two headers manually, mutt is not set up and my ISP's SMTP requires SMTP AUTH: X-Reportbug-Version: 2.63 X-Debbugs-Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello, The kernel from this package doesn't boot on my IBM ThinkPad T23 laptop with 1.13 GHz Mobile Pentium 3 and 384 MB RAM. After GRUB loads the kernel and the screen is blanked it will stay blank. I waited some minutes, but nothing happens. This also happened sometimes with 2.6.7, but most of the time it works. I never had this problem with 2.6.6. Earlier versions of the 2.6.8 kernel-image packages (2.6.8-1 and 2.6.8-2) worked correctly, but CD burning with "K3b" did only work as "root" on this configuration. I updated to the latest 2.6.8 kernel-image package to see if it fixes that problem and to see whether ACPI works better. But well my machine won't boot with it. Since I ran Kernel 2.6.7 I installed a Teac DVD burner, model DV-W24EW. The installation of that device may be related to the problem, as I didn't experience any boot problems with 2.6.7 before. However I am able to burn CDs and DVDs just fine with this burner (with 2.6.7) provided that 2.6.7 does boot (which is most of the time).
