So there we go:

1) Without kernel options (except resume option) copying works in desktop.

2) But then otherwise as I expected: With just "threadirqs" kernel option it 
hangs. I would have suspected the "i915_enable_rc6" option instead.

3) But only when triggering copy via KDE desktop dolphin´s file manager. I 
tried copying on tty1 again and no hang there. Also again I/O seemed to go on 
after mouse pointer freeze (without Ctrl-Alt-F1) working. kwin ran in 
compositing mode.

4) With just "i915_enable_rc6=7" it works. But since according to powertop 
that option doesn´t give me the benefit of doing into deeper GPU sleep states 
anyway, I removed that one now as well.


So my laptop is on 3.13-rc6 now without any special options and I learned 
again:

Never try to tune the kernel :)

And if still tuning it: First remove any kernel option when facing any issue. 
Sorry for the noise that not adhering to this has caused.


This is second time that threadirqs option caused problems here. Thus CCing 
rt-users mailing list as well.

If wished I compile this all into a bugzilla.kernel.org bug report in a 
concise format as well. But thats for another day :)

Have a good shift into new year if not already in it… otherwise a happy new 
year,
Martin

It just does that with

Linux version 3.13.0-rc6-tp520 (martin@merkaba) (gcc version 4.8.2 (Debian 
4.8.2-10) ) #41 SMP PREEMPT Mon Dec 30 13:39:07 CET 2013

as well.

But, only when trying to write a file via desktop environment via dolphin from 
KDE in that case. When I am on tty1 it seems to be stable to write to the SD 
card. But with dolphin on writing a large few files vom /usr/bin mouse pointer 
froze again. But according to harddisk led from ThinkPad T520 there has been 
some write activity afterwards. The LED also lits up for MMC card accesses. 
Still after reboot there is none of the copied files visible on the FAT32 
formatted SD card.

Thus adding Intel gfx and dri devel lists to CC.


This crashing only under GUI might still be a coindidence. I only tried once. 
But since the crash usually came almost immediately and it didn´t crash with 
reading or writing files on TTY1 and it somehow continued I/O according to 
harddisk led instead of seeming to be completely stopped… well I can try again 
to make sure. Would be good to make it crash on TTY1 since then I might see 
some kernel output.


Back to 3.12.6 for now. I just tried the same with that kernel and there the 
copying just works nice.

I can also report a bug at bugzilla.kernel.org if needed.


May comments about bisecting still applies. I do not feel comfortable with 
doing it on this production machine with production data on it… especially 
given the major block layer changes. There may be points in history were the 
kernel produces data corruption or so.

Thanks,
Martin

 Hi!

 Mouse pointer freezes, no Ctrl-Alt-F1.

Still after reboot there is none of the copied files visible on the FAT32

This crashing only under GUI might still be a coindidence. I only tried once.

  as well.
 
 I missed some important data. Kernel runs with threadirqs:
 
 merkaba:~ cat /proc/cmdline
 BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.12.6-tp520
 root=UUID=2f5c334d-249b-4c89-95cc-18572f750bd7 ro rootflags=subvol=root
 resume=/dev/mapper/merkaba-swap threadirqs i915_enable_rc6=7
 
 Oh, and I see i915_enable_rc6=7. This always worked flawlessly. But maybe
 this changed? Cause according to powertop the GPU never entered deeper
 sleep states anyway. Maybe this now works (and thus may hang)?
 
 These are values on 3.12.6:
 | GPU |
 | 
 | Powered On 96,3%|
 | RC6 3,7%|
 | RC6p0,0%|
 | RC6pp   0,0%|
 
 I also attach kernel configs of non working 3.13-rc6 and working 3.12.6
 kernels.
 
 Its a ThinkPad T520 with Sandybridge:
 
 merkaba:~ lspci -nn | grep VGA
 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation
 Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0126] (rev 09)
 
 Debian kernel packages available. But well… optimized for ThinkPad T520, may
 not run nicely otherwere.
 
 
 Please give suggestions on what to try next. Whats comes to mind is tryining
 without rc6_enable option and then without threadirq option.
 
 Any other idea?

So there we go:

1) Without kernel options (except resume option) copying works in desktop.

2) But then otherwise as I expected: With just threadirqs kernel option it 
hangs. I would have suspected the i915_enable_rc6 option instead.

3) But only when triggering copy via KDE desktop dolphin´s file manager. I

will be bisecting while having a long list of more interesting things to do 
than that.


Thus for now I just use 3.12 kernel again. Maybe I will try with some rc5 or 
so again.

Ciao,

[REGRESSION] 3.13-rc2: locks up hard on trying to transfer a file to mmc based internal SD card slot

2013-11-30 Thread Martin Steigerwald
Hi!

Just does that on a ThinkPad T520 with:

merkaba:~ lspci -nn | grep MMC
0d:00.0 System peripheral [0880]: Ricoh Co Ltd PCIe SDXC/MMC Host Controller 
[1180:e823] (rev 08)

Mouse pointer freezes, no Ctrl-Alt-F1.


merkaba:~ fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3822 cylinders, total 61405184 sectors

I do not want to take the time to diagnose this further, especially as its one 
of those nasty I just lock up and I don´t tell you what went wrong kind of 
bugs. Thats just not a nice way to tell that there has been an error.


If there is any five or ten minute information gathering task, I am willing to 
provide more information, but right now there is no chance on Earth that I 
will be bisecting while having a long list of more interesting things to do 
than that.

[REGRESSION] 3.13-rc2: locks up hard on trying to transfer a file to mmc based internal SD card slot

2013-11-30 Thread Martin Steigerwald
Just added linux-mmc. And I might git-bisect that at some time, but I do not 
intend to do it during my precious weekend. The chances of me bisecting it 
increase with workable suggestions on how to cut down the amount of iterations 
needed and avoid testing highly experimental between 3.12 and 3.13-rc1 kernels 
on a production laptop. I may be willing to test a patch or two. As I see 
there seem to have been quite some changes in MMC subsystem.
